Wants not needs and all.

That and the Tahoe will carry 7 people, 5 in vastly more comfort. All while towing a boat or whatever behind it. It will also carry the luggage for 5 people with ease where the Camry won't. You can argue whether that utility is necessary or not but that comes in handy and is worth something.

Curious. Does yours have the rear locker and does it still work? Mine stopped working about a year ago, don’t use it often enough to be concerned, might pull it apart and rebuild this summer if I find the spare time.

GLWS, while she’s not my ‘85 Marty McFly, my ‘03 is still better than any of the 2nd gen and later Tacos from my experience.
Still amazed at the market value of a 20yo pickup!

It’s insane. It has the locker but I havent needed to use it in 5 years

I used rear lockers a lot this winter on my land cruiser to get in and out of my snowy, then icy, and then slushy driveway.

I don’t think minivans are all that cheaper

Nice rig.

I love silver Fords. But two demerits for smoker's vents and the Monster Energy wheels.

smoker vents are a must, cracking windows in the winter or rain blows when the drips hit my buttons or inside my window. Truck is immaculate for something I work out of 6-7 days a week and how am I supposed to get baked in the parking lot on a snowy day, clam baking is for high schoolers.

you can’t put a 37x12.5 on a stock ford wheel or believe me they would still be on there. And no fender flares just like mud flaps, keeps people from riding my ass.

Giving an annoyed patrol officer a simple reason to want to talk to you.
And he then smells the smoke drifting out of the hooded windows…

Completely legal in vermont. Have 80% of the tire covered, which is 15-75 degrees of tire coverage off of the fender. My wheels are the same offset as a stock ford wheel. And legally speaking I can smell of all the weed I want to. Can’t be high and driving, but believe me, I’ve been pulled over, asked to see what I had for weed in the truck and had it handed right back by the super troopers. Don’t carry more then an oz and keep it locked up in the console. It’s a pretty easy thing to deal with, and just about every state I ski in are very weed friendly and truck friendly, only Wyoming and Idaho suck for pot at this point and even there it’s pretty easy going, and thank god there’s no skiing in Texas, fuck those laws.

This thing is rad. They put an electric mustang engine in an old Ford 100.

Somebody want a classic?

Seeking some advice on selling my Tacoma. 2012 access cab tacoma 4x4 with ARE canopy. Has an airbag kit and bilstein suspension but otherwise basic and stock.

Anyone had luck with the instant buys from a dealership or Carmax? Local dealership would give $14,400 for it which is what they offered 6 years ago when I was looking at upgrading. I really don’t want to go the Craigslist route since I have no experience with the process but am I leaving too much money on the table going straight to the dealership?

I’m coming up on new tires, registration, and need a different vehicle for growing family so I’d like to unload it.

Perfect vehicle for Portland craigslist. If you've got the clean title in hand and can count cash you're good to go. You just need to figure out how much to add on over $14,400 to ask.

[Name Redacted]

I had a local guy with a dealer license sell my Taco. He took $1500 and i got the rest. Worked out pretty well for me because i got $5k over what carmax was offering.

[benk]

Thanks, I’ll ask about that. Just looked Craigslist and there’s not much inventory of Tacomas in Portland and prices seem high enough to deal with the hassle of trying a Craigslist deal

If CL is turning into a hassle I would be happy to set you up with the guy here in Portland who sold our Tubdra for us.

[Cruiser]

Get a CarMax bid on Thursday. Then put it on cl Friday for 20% more. If it doesn't sell easily by Sunday evening then take it to CarMax Monday morning.

Fwiw, in Colorado the value of your trade gets deducted from the cost of your new rig when they calculate sales tax. So trading in can make some sense if there's a little tax savings and the difference in price from a private party sale isn't too significant.

Craigslist is $5 to list and rarely a hassle these days. Sure people are flakes but that's harmless compared to actual crooks.

No sales tax in OR.

I like the Craigslist to Dealer timeline. And thanks for the referral Supermoon, I’ll PM you if I go that route [emoji1360]

2024 Tacoma specs announced.

https://pressroom.toyota.com/2024-to...nture-machine/

"Tacoma will offer two powerful and efficient powertrains using a 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder. For entry-level SR grades, this engine produces 228 horsepower and 243 lb.-ft. of torque. For all other grades, output increases to 278 horsepower and 317 lb.-ft. of torque when paired with the new eight-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission with intelligence (ECT-i). Enthusiasts rejoice: a six-speed intelligent manual transmission (iMT2) with automatic rev matching and anti-stall technology is available. Manual transmission models produce 270 horsepower and 310 lb.-ft. of torque.

New to the mid-size, body-on-frame pickup segment is Tacoma’s i-FORCE MAX hybrid powertrain, the most powerful powertrain ever offered on Tacoma. Available on TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road, Limited, and standard on the TRD Pro and Trailhunter halo models, i-FORCE MAX pairs the 2.4-liter engine with a 48-hp electric motor integrated into the eight-speed transmission feeding off a 1.87-kWh NiMH battery pack that creates a total system output of 326 horsepower and a whopping 465 lb.-ft. of torque, nearly doubling the torque output of the current-gen truck with the V-6 engine. When equipped with i-FORCE MAX, Tacoma can ascend an 8-percent interstate grade without the need to downshift, making long road trips more pleasant than ever in a Tacoma. Fuel economy estimates for all powertrains will be announced closer to their on-sale dates.

Tacomas with rear-wheel drive feature an automatic limited-slip differential (Auto LSD), and four-wheel-drive models have an electronically controlled two-speed transfer case with high/low range along with Active Traction Control (A-TRAC) and an automatic limited-slip differential (Auto LSD). An electronic locking rear differential is standard on TRD PreRunner, TRD Off-Road, TRD Pro, and Trailhunter grades. The new and luxurious Limited grade now features a full-time four-wheel-drive system with a center locking differential on i-FORCE MAX models."

Discussion should start with these seats that feature adjustable air shocks:

[zion zig zag]

I'm curious to see MSRP and MPG. I'm betting the trailhunter edition will be $60k and get nearly the same MPG as current gen V6, which seems like a fail.

[Supermoon]

Yeah. This. My first thought was I don’t want to pay 80k for a Tacoma.

And where’s the hybrid?
