Replaced Something

................The truck. Goal was to pass inspection and trade it in. I got $1500 for it but I wanted it gone as bad as everyone here. It was a love hate relationship with that truck. I just bought a 2003 Tacoma SR5 2.7L 4wd with the 5 speed and manual tcase. I pick it up mid week. I will be on here still lol

you get something out of working on your truck, I get nothing. I made a decision i had to make and cut my losses and loose money either way.

Very nice, good purchase..One thing i require out of a vehicle is reliability, and those 1st gen Tacomas are suppose to last forever. I so hope you peeked under it to check for the notorious frame rot though.
