[QUOTE="Torch10th, post: 14855595, member: 15703"] Late 90's Tacoma. I picked up my 97 Tacoma for $6000.00 in 2004. It was an LX V6 model, so just one step below the SR5 TRD packaged pickups. Even with 160,000 miles on the clock it was stone reliable. I got 18 mpg out of it on regular unleaded no matter how I drove it. Off-roading it was very capable for a stock pickup. All it had was a set of BFG all-terrain tires. It wasn't a rock crawler, but I never hit a trail it couldn't overcome. I sold that pickup 4 years later with 185,000 on the engine for $5000.00. It does seat 4 people, but the two seats in the back are of course fold downs, so they aren't the most comfortable on long hauls. Doable for sure though. The only thing you really have to watch for on these pickups is the frame. Make sure it's either had the recall performed or that it's checked out and doesn't have internal rot in the rails. [/QUOTE]
