    Hello friends,

    I live in the great La area and have been looking for a good and safe deal on a taco, with low miles, 4 doors extended cab, and less than 100k miles. I have found a few but I thought Id ask this communitty as well. My budget is 16k.

    Thank you

    Check the frames. They have rust issues where the corrosion coating failed, a massive recall was issued for 05-08 where they replace the frames or spray them if they determine replacement was not necessary. Check out the 2nd gen section to learn the differences between all the models.
