I'm finally comming back to toyota and decided on a 05+ taco. I found a loaded red double cab trd 4x4 for 22,000 certed with the 7yr 100k deal. Its got 59k on the motor. Im just torn on if I should go fully loaded with some miles or access cab or crew without the trd and less miles. I really like the trd. Ive also looked at pre runners, but Im scared to not get 4x4 because I do use it. Are the 4.0s looking like they will be reliable as the 3.4s and 2.7s?

Thanks guys

 

I have got 33K on my '05 w/o issue with the 4.0. Get a 4x4. I use my e-locker quite a bit. Price seems kind of high, I would think it would be more like the 19-20 range, but there is something to be said about the warranty. I have heard of people getting new for $26K.

 

So far I have 52K on my '05, and no problems to date. I am glad to have gotten the rear locker. I haven't used it a whole bunch, but it's saved my bacon more than a couple of times, and the bacon of others as well. It has allowed me to go where ever our lifted and locked TJ goes(my wifes ride) too.
