Searching for my first Tacoma

Hello everyone, I'm new to the group and I'm glad a coworker referred me to this site. I don't own a Tacoma yet but I'm in the market to buy one. I'm looking for a 2nd Gen Tacoma Quad Cab V6 4x4 or 4x2 long bed and will be looking to spend up to $13k. Should high mileage be a concern? My question is what should I look out for when purchasing one? I'm hoping I can find one from a single owner. Any information on what I should look out for or what I should check would be greatly appreciated. Sorry forgot to mention I live in Southern California. Thank you

 

You'll have the best luck getting the most value out of $13k by going with 2WD.

 

Your profile doesn't state where you are, but be sure to inspect the truck for rust on the frame.

 

13k you will need a lot of luck for that little amount.
