HELP....what do you think

I think I like the 2nd one a whole lot better. Not crazy about the lift though.

The red one - amazing how a 16 year old truck with near 200k can be close to 6k. That blows my mind - but then again these trucks have one hell of a resale value, which of course is evident in that they are hard to find. Like you said Cy, needle in the haystack fo sho!

Good luck buddy! I would love to have one of those but it wouldn't work out for towing the V long distances.

Blue's .02
 
i like the black one too. but the blue book is like $9,000 and they are only asking $6,500 :head:

the blue book on the red one is $5400 and they are asking $5900 :bat:

not crazy about the lift either, but it is one good looking truck

by the way these are 3 hours from my house. they are the only ones i can find. :bat::nut:

thanks blue
 
I don't like the lift and it looks as though it was rode a bit hard. I do like black though.:sun:

I like the red one. Needs to be checked out really well for rust cover up because the early models were notorious for bed rust.
 
ok CB...now that you rubbed it in a little.:nut:......love your truck.

what year is yours? how many miles? and what do you think it is worth?

oh yeah keep your eye on it........would not want it to disapear one day soon:head:
 
Mine is an '04 and I have 56k miles on it. I have no idea what it's worth. Yes, a baby seat would fit back there. When my grandson is with us, he makes my wife ride in back there. :you: The one downside to the Tacoma Xtra Cabs up to '04 is that they never made them with a third door. '05 and up with the new body styles have the doors for the jump seat area. Kids don't seem to mind climbing in there, but it's not easy for an adult. Accessing that area for child seats or groceries or whatever your hauling isn't too bad a task though.
 
thanks CB. your is worth around $15,000 if my research is correct. I will give you $5,500:you: and you have to deliver it to me:bat:
 
Cy, I wouldnt buy a lifted truck with gas prices the way they are. Even the little trucks can be pigs when they are lifted.

As far as the child seat, I would look for a quad cab. I put my son in the back of my Ram 1500 Quad Cab and you have to put the front passenger seat pretty far forward for it to fit. Definitely try putting a car seat in the back before you make your decision.
 
The red one is very nice looking, but $6K for 183,000 miles, no thank you, besides I never will own a Red auto, they are bad luck!!

Black looks nice but agree on the lift and kind of beat look, but it only has 118,000 and it is a recalled truck (95 to 2000) for roted frames, you have till 2015 to get the recall if it is not roted right now.
And they pay you 1 1/2 the Blue Book excellent value! You might make money on that one?
 
as far as the car seat.....can you turn those things sideways? just a thought?

the red one is nice, but is a lot of miles.....gonna call about it today. as far as the lifted one.....can I UN-lift it?:head:
 
Cy, children need to be rear facing for the first year. My bruiser son is 6 months old and has outgrown his infant seat which was $279:oh: with the stroller. He is already over 20 lbs and my wife went out last night to buy him the next level car seat. She bought him a Britax to the tune of $219:you: Thats a total of $500 on car seats in 6 months:hi:
