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.

i like the black one too. but the blue book is like $9,000 and they are only asking $6,500

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

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.

thanks blue

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



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.

I don't know how far it is from you, but I found one on eBay. It has a couple of things I'm not crazy about but I thought I'd share it w/ ya.

You've probably already seen it:

thanks BR, but with the KID on the way in late December I really need an extended cab to put a baby seat in.

Hey CB, you think a baby seat will fit in the back of your truck?

[chumbucket]

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. 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 and you have to deliver it to me

[chumbucket]

Let me think about that one for a bit. No.
