SOLD: 2003 TRD Ext Cab V6 5MT 4WD 161K –LOADED- ABQ, NM - SOLD

FS: 2003 Toyota Tacoma TRD Ext Cab V6 5MT 4WD 161K

The time has come to sell my Tacoma. I purchased the truck from the original owner at 144K miles in February of 2016. The truck now has 160K miles, and I clearly didn’t drive it as much as I thought I would over the last four years. The truck is now for sale and ready for it's new home.

SOLD! SOLD! SOLD! Vehicle is located in Albuquerque, NM. Clean NM title in hand.











Timing Belt last replaced > 9/2/2010 at Larry H. Miller Toyota ABQ, vehicle mileage = 91,140.

The original owner documented the maintenance/upgrades he did to the truck via a build thread here on the forum. I did my best to continue that tradition by creating a separate thread once I took ownership of the truck.

My thread > https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/bigfishalldays-truck-thread.415048/

The CarFax vehicle history report on the truck is sparkling except for one minor accident back in 2005. Original owner informed me that the truck was lightly rear ended in Tuscon and driven home without issue. The rear bumper and spare tire winch were replaced, and there was no other body damage. The CarFax I have available only contains data up until the time I bought the truck and nothing has transpired during my ownership that would require a new report. You are welcome to pull one if you’d like at your expense. I can provide the report from the original owner pulled at 144K miles.

The basic specs on the truck are as follows:

2003 Toyota Tacoma SR5 Extended Cab V6 4WD 5-Speed MT w/TRD Package, this truck is also equipped with the fully manual J-shift Transfer Case, w/no electronic actuators.

Just under 161,000 miles currently and should not climb much. Next timing belt service due at 180K miles.

Gold Exterior paint is 7.5/10 with a few dents and scratches, and rock chips along the leading edge of hood that have been touched up with OE touch up paint. Tan cloth interior is 9/10 with some minor wear on the DS seat bolster from ingress/egress. All glass is OE except DS door glass, replaced with aftermarket due to vandalism.

Vehicle was purchased new by original owner in Tuscon, AZ and has lived in Tuscon, Phoenix, and Albuquerque its whole life. The truck is rust free, except for minor areas related to aftermarket items like exhaust, leaf springs, and rock slider welds. Some minor surface rust on OE fuel tank skid plate.

Original manuals, dealer documentation, pamphlets, etc. included in leather bound Toyota pouch.

Full OE tool kit and jack are included, along with a few extra tools to expedite tire changes.

Two sets of keys/alarm fobs included along with key(s) for ALL aftermarket locks, camper shell, etc.

Remotes for all aftermarket equipment present and working (audio head unit, winch controller, etc.)

Color matched ATC Brand Camper Shell, reinforced top with adjustable rails and 60” Thule cross bars for mounting accessories and/or roof basket. Sliding window to match that found on the cab of the truck. All glass intact and functioning struts on rear glass. Six aluminum clamps holding shell in place.

Line-X Spray in Bed Liner to protect the inside of the bed from damage.

Very clean truck, what’s the new future plan? Still keeping the runner? GLWS!

 

Beauty!

 

Looks great!
I’m assuming with that package it’s getting around 12 mpg why though?

 

Agreed!

Thanks, man. The future plan is unknown at this point, and the 4Runner is staying.

Thanks.

Did I mistakenly post in the "1st Gen Priuses For Sale" section. OOPS!

I see 14-15 mpg city driving and can wring out almost 20 on highway trips if I drive conservatively.

 

If I ever buy another used truck I hope it is from someone as meticulous as you Nick. GLWS

 

It’s certainly a bad ass ride!

 

Hello, would you care to Text me ? 434-316-2106. Thanks!

 

Beautiful truck!!!

 

I had a chance to check out the truck earlier this week and it is very clean. Nick is a great guy and think it is going to a good home. The search continues

 

Thanks, Chris. I was hoping to see some fast action on your 4Runner too, because that thing is definitely built right.

Thanks, I enjoyed it while I owned it.

Again, thanks.

Sorry the deal didn't work out between us, Andrew. I appreciated your commitment and interest.



TRUCK IS OFFICIALLY SOLD AS OF 4/27/20!!
