    Not sure if you're retarded or not but I invite you to check out the 3.5 engine failure thread to see how many garage queens blew up driving to costco with an empty bed and no trailer.

    the 2gr-fks is literally the least reliable timing chain V6 ever put into a tacoma while the 2.7 is literally the longest lasting 4 pot ever created by Toyota.
    Educate yourself versus posting random false facts and general retarded nonsense

    honestly I don't even think you could get a 2.7 with a trailer hitch could you?

    Very weird as I tow a 3500 lbs walleye boat every weekend....I wonder how I do it without a trailer hitch?

    Must be magic.

    You are clearly of a very high IQ.

    Not sure where you are but looks like you may be able to get a little better deal if you expand your search. Here are some of the deals over by me in florida

    this search is all double cabs with <45k miles sorted to price lowest. Here are some of the cheapest ones.

    For $29k within 250 miles of me; you can get a 2018-2021 multi private owner with 30-44k miles. There are only 4-6 with any powertrain warranty left 2022-2023 with less than 40k miles and under $30k.

    Well carfax was a bust, it did not report any damage or accidents. The whole driver side has been repainted with obvious overspray. Kind of pissed I paid to have this shipped here under the understanding it was damage and accident free.

    People generally don't trade in clean used vehicles. There's always something.

    Somebody BS about accident. How far are you from seller? Safer to do on site inspection, if no can I don’t know.

    They ended up refunding the shipping fee.:evil:

    I need a reset on considering a truck for a little while. Used prices are too high for me to move on anything right now. :playball:

    I didn’t even bother test driving it was such a terrible experience. :frusty:

    The seller can’t say that they didn’t know it. I mean hell Ray Charles can see that. I’m glad they gave you your money back without much of a fight. What is really sad who ever done the work must have done it in there backyard.

    It’s only been a fleet truck, so like a company owned truck so it was probably an inside shop “repair” but it looked so bad I have other pictures too but don’t need to post because they didn’t show up as well. I wouldn’t be surprised if the inside of the mirror is gorilla glued together and slapped back on. :eek:

    I think your being slightly extreme . The 2GR is not A POS lol does it have some trouble spots ,potentially yes . The stuff that happens is not extreme it’s just tough to get too. There are plenty of people over,200 k with no real issues

    That's a lot of coin to blow on suspension just to deal with leaks.
