    LOVE this thing! Thorough inspection, drive and passed the wife-test. I now have a new (to me (2009)) Tacoma. Could not be happier with the condition of this truck for being 9 years old. I'm really impressed so far with everything.

    it could also mean that the car was given to another family member, until they decided they didn't want it anymore and traded it in.

    Thats what happened with my Tundra. Bought it from my dad in 2014, traded it in April 2017. Never transferred the title into my name unil I traded it in. On paper I "owned" the truck for all of five minutes. I was just going to have my dad sign the tile over to the dealership but said it had to go in my name first since it was registerd in my name? I don't know. It was a one owner truck on paper until that happened.

    I think in the end, because that's a double cab long bed it was probably too long for the person who owned it for a short period of time.

    Great truck, how many miles and how much did you pay? I paid 12,400 at a dealer for an 09 double cab long bed with 151K miles in great condition inside an out for a 9 year old truck.
