    It is a 01 4x4 5 speed 4 banger. I just needed a good looking reliable truck to get my dirt bike around without having to pay a ton of money for gas. I have a problem with modding everything I own and I’m sure it will be no different with the Tacoma. Here are some pics from the dealers lot.

    Thanks. They do have some full size Chevys and Fords but they keep them in the back because they are not selling due to gas prices.

    I actually own a white 01 tacoma just like that one, although i do have a toolbox in the back, along with a body lift and 32 bfg a/t. I still get around an average of 18 miles to the gallonthough, so you made a good buy. :) I love mine.

    I just took it on a 400 mile road trip last night to pick up a dirt bike and couldnt be happier. Truck runs great and gets great gas mileage.
