its got: air conditioning, abs, electric mirriors, windows, tinted windows, cruise control.

 

thats $12,060.48 USD and 116,817.8 miles. That seems like a pretty high price for something with that many miles/km on her...just my 2 cents though...

 

Its more than I would pay for it. A rule of thumb for me also is to avoid riced out rigs like this tacoma with too many stickers, exhaust tip, intake ect. I would buy a stock rig instead. Cars that have lots of cheap add ons are usually abused IMO.

 

That's a little high, even for Canada.

 

yeah x2, looks good, but in my experience dont buy anything with a lift and tires its probobly been beatin to hell and back already, buy a stocker and do the mods urself, alot more gratifying IMO and you wont have people that say "ive seen that truck b4!! stuck up to its windows in mud"

 

lmao, that's why I turned down a SASes Toy for my 91 stocker that and I got a decent deal

 

lol that trucks probably had the crap beat out of it. Look for something stock.

 

Def look for a stocker. My Bro-in-law picked up an 02 last year with slight mods. He checked underneath it and it was SUPER clean. It looked as though it had never seen a dirt road, period. Well it turns out, I guess it never had seen a dirt road, it was lifted for looks. He failed to check fto see if there was a dif drop, which there wasn't. He blew both front CV's during hunting season b/c of no dif drop with 3in coil spacers. OUCH,

 

I say too much. Just be patient if you don't need one right away. Hopefully some old man will sell his babied stock rig to you for a better price!! (wishful thinking)

 

well there is some stock ones around... but for some reason im not much for doing big mods, ive found that i tell myself that i will do a lot to my vehicles, but never do them lol, so im thinking that if the mods are somewhat done (properly) like the lift etc, it would be better for me, oh and i forgot to mention the truck is originally from texas and never seen snow, im gonna offer him less and see if theyl take it, its a dealership so its been inspected twice, plus theres the one year warrenty so...

 

Sounds to me like you answered your own question. Trucks give us a certain "vibe" when we think of buying them. If it feels right, go for it.
