    I'll admit it.

    This question qualifies for my 'Letterman style posts' top 10.

    As the first responder, I suspected sad attempt at trolling, and it seems that is what this is. OPs 1 and only post, and not much fireworks.

    I sold my 2012 prerunner for 2K less than I paid for it new. 5 years old and 70,000 miles on the clock.

    Trucks of all kinds are ALWAYS in demand.

    yeah it depends on where you're located. Here in SoCal, Prerunners are everywhere. Probably make up 90% of all Tacomas out here. Wouldn't be hard to sell a used one at all.

    That being said, 4x4's do fetch a much higher price when sold privately even out here.

    So when a member posts asking a question like this honest answers trying to help are inappropriate? Maybe I'm just too old to get it

    You know I got into a brief discussion with some others and never even noticed the OP hadn't replied. Idk I like coming on here and reading, discussing things,and meeting prople. I've learned a good bit on here and can only hope I've taught a few some things. I've seen alot of BS on here and had to wade through a bit to get what I needed, but also seen people bend over backwards to help as well. I've also been deeply insulted by a local member while a friend from CA sends me a set of coils and struts to help me out. Whether the OP replied or not I still enjoyed my conversation

    I've been on a tight budget for the most part. Took me 3 years to get to where I'm at now, so a very possible possibility
