    Joined in Jan and mostly been lurking, also checking the marketplace to see if anything pops up in my area. After almost a year of searching for something I really wanted, I finally made my purchase of my very first truck. Got myself a 1995 Tacoma, 4x4 3.4L V6 SR5. I'm the 3rd owner. Has 138k on it, first owner was a lady who kept the truck in the garage everyday, brought the truck to toyota for the maintenance intervals and had the timing belt and water pump done at 120k. Second owner worked with the first owner and ended up buying it off of her. He did new brakes, struts, and tires when he purchased. Needless to say this thing runs and drives great, no rust, interior is mint, has some scratches here and there but nothing major, loving the moon roof and sliding rear window too! AC blows cold, power everything works, overall i'm very happy. I think I paid a little over what I personally thought it was worth, but thankfully for me I still drive my civic to work everyday and I won't pile the miles on too much. Let me know what you think! Will hopefully be more active on here learning from the forum, since my search is finally over.IMG_4491.jpg IMG_4458.jpg IMG_4462.jpg

    Thank you all! I plan on clearing my garage out to put it in there. and yes! I plan on keeping it stock, I have put a new stereo in so far, only plans are to put some more aggressive tires on eventually, Can't think of much else I want to do. I love how it is now!

    I have an '04 with 26,500 miles on it and this truck looks just as clean...maybe cleaner (haven't washed mine in awhile)

    To find a first model year Tacoma '95.5 looking that clean is incredible. Great find OP!

    Nice truck. When I decided to get a Tacoma I wanted a 1st generation, I didn't find one I wanted. I'm happy with my 2nd generation.
