It's not bad at all, in fact I might go look at it since I'm also in Baltimore

Too bad it's not an SR5 (I could not own a truck without tach, and with the vinyl door panels)

No reserve might be a good deal in the end though, I'm going to keep my eyes on that auction

Nice post

'89 Tacoma huh?
No such animal.

The Taconian flavor of the pickup line came out in mid '95.

We all know that, but the dealer has no idea about what they have. How about the "6 or 8 inch suspension lift" + 3 inch body lift?

Wow that's a really clean truck. Only $500 right now and no reserve, seems like a steal.

I have never seen an '89 that clean before. Might turn out to be a good deal.

Seriously clean Yota. The dealer did a neat job detailing it.
Usually Salt Belt rust underneath.

Inspires me to clean up my rig ... but, not enough to do it now.

That is extremely clean for an '89. I bet the price is going to go real high, there's 6 days left.

There's no way in god's green earth that that has a 6" or 8" suspension lift.

It might be 6 or 8" above stock, but that includes lift & tires. No way it is lifted 6-8".

edit: Price is now at $2025, still a good deal.

There is no suspension lift at all. Other than, maybe, torsion bar adjustment. The factory skid won't mount and that truck would be huge over a little set of 33"ers. The front angles are bad and the boots probably torn. You can see there are no drop brackets in the front either.

No blocks in the rear and the leafs look stock.

The truck looks in immacualte shape and with a no reserve it could be a steal for a saavy bidder.

The dealer did a good job detailling it and it looks as though it hasn't been wheeled much or hard. The skid plate louvers are all straight and not much denting at base. At the most it would be 4-6" over stock if it came with 31x10.50's. 3" for the bodylift, and extra 1" for the circumference difference in the 33" tires and another 1-2" for torsion bar adjustment. However the rear hasn't been touched. Suprisingly not saggy inthe ass like most 89-95 Yotas. Even mined needed new springs and an add-a-leaf to create a minor amount of rake unloaded and to sit close to level with my jetski/sled loaded.

I'm willing to bet no torsion bar lift at all. 3" body lift plus 2" tire increase (from 225/75's) = 5" over stock.

Pretty nice truck.

I love that color (the stripes are gay though)!
