What are the seller's asking for it? Any pictures? If I had one in mint condition with only 37K miles I would never sell it, but if I was the seller I would be asking anywhere from 7-10K I guess. If I was trying to buy one I would try to get it for around 5 or 6 grand I suppose. But if you can get it for 3K then jump on it!

Don't know if that helps any or not.

Only 37k miles!!?? Wow, thats practically new. Is 3k what he is asking? Ive seen worse trucks selling for more than that. But i guess it depends on your specific area. Demand dictates price. Around my area i've seen them between 3-6k. There are some that pop up in the 1-2k range but they are rough and need lots of work.

Got any pics? Would love to see this mint 89.

more info

im buying from the second owner who has had it only a year and was a cop who only drove his patrol car. the original owner was an admiral stationed in New Orleans. im looking at buying it but the price is way above 3k. just wondering what yall thought. this is the cleanest 89 you will ever see. its going to be my fishing/ hunting truck and if i take care of it will be my sons first truck. a 04 yota with this mileage is worth 25kish which is why i dont get the huge difference.

because an 04 tacoma is worth more than this truck, despite the year and mileage.

honestly, being that its a 22re, its definitely worth the buy if its not a ridiculous price. You'd be sinning if you wanted to mod this thing though if you're looking for something to cut up, SAS, and wheel. pass on it, and go with somehting a little more beat already.
