    Also, is it a good deal? Im sure I can haggle him down a bit. Here is the link http://monterey.craigslist.org/cto/5517911537.html

    Thanks in advance!

    EDIT: This is going to be my first Tacoma, I need a truck for work (construction) and to go dirt biking. I love Toyotas and I have heard so many good things, so I could use a little help in the advice department on my first truck.

    Just curious, but if you want a truck for construction & dirt biking, why are you looking at an x-runner when they have such low ground clearance?

    A standard 2wd 5 lug Tacoma or Prerunner seems better suited for what you say you need it for. I'd just be concerned that an x-runner with such low ground clearance would be an issue. If not then please disregard, it looks like a clean truck from what I can see.

    heh, figured id see someone copy me eventually. never figured id be an xrunner tho. :eek:

    but to answer your question, its 10 years old and extremely modified, best to steer clear.

    I suggest you find a 4x4 offroad or sport that is in bare bones, stock condition and then modify it to your liking from there. welcome to tw. :thumbsup:

    Huh what exactly is an x- runner good for?
    This is the kind of question you should ask yourself before making decisions but if it suit your purpose go for it. To me the x-runner is typically a show truck not a work truck.
