For Sale Todays Craigslist Highlights...Part 3

Someone buy that SR5 please so I stop obsessing. These little trucks are a blast to drive and this one looks like a true survivor! Maybe I'll send this to my sister...she's been wanting a truck.

I can connect you with David the owner if you would like an intro.

I'm watching this thread now just for that red SR5.

Idk what's the general average price paid for a used Taco. I haven't done that research. Just starting to dip my toes as I find (or make) time and cash available.

Is $16k reasonable for that SR5?

I would think $10-12K would be in line with the going rate -- but of course, it's worth whatever he can sell it for.

 

[that'swhatshesaid]

I did the values last night when I was at happy hour with his wife. Retail up to 17k. He's already been offered 15k.

Sadly it is in today's market. Retail 17k private party less but this ones a gem and will likely get the 16 he's asking.

 

[Corbet]

For something like this I always ask, do you want it? Then pay up.

If I had the money right now I’d buy it. But have home improvement projects draining my accounts this year.

 

[allen.wrench]

10-4 guys. Thanks for the input. I appreciate it. Sounds reasonable enough.

Funny enough the significant amount of $16-17k is making me recall in 2017 when I was in the market to replace my college beater because I had a real job a few years after graduating. I had made up my mind to get a Taco and then I needed to decide new or used.

But LMFAO the private party used Taco market was just about the same price as brand new from a dealership. So I bought brand new.

As a data point, here is what appears to be a clean 1981 mini truck that recently sold on BaT for $16,250 before fees: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1981-toyota-4x4-pickup-23/

 

[simps80]

I guess based on this I should sell Doug’s old mint ass 82 sr5 - rust fixed Toyota power steering conversion, nib stripe kit, and fuel injection kit
I use it to haul dirt and compost and lumber you know…a truck..

Geez it’s like Land Cruiser prices

My aunt has a hard tonneau cover for her 2007 Tacoma RCSB that she’s basically ready to give away. In Highlands. PM if you want me to connect you

 

[HDavis]

I've really tried to convince myself that this will fit in our yard, and I would get use out if it. But the truth is I wouldn't and don't need it, despite really wanting it. Maybe @simps80 or @MDH33 can convince themselves that they need it.... Or someone else.
It's a Stout bed that's been converted to a trailer and the seller is blissfully unaware. Someone please save it so I can appreciate it from afar.

I was looking at that frame and did a quick search for other cruiser stuff on CL. Saw this guy posted from Boulder. Club member? I’ve never heard of this shop.

That looks like a $4k Cruiser to me, not $28k.

There are nights I go to sleep thinking we overpaid for the 60. This will make me sleep very soundly tonight.

I did not know that the transfer case was factored in when determining how many speeds a vehicle has. In that case we have a 22 speed. 20 forward speeds and 2 reverse!

 

[DanS]

That looks like a $4k Cruiser to me, not $28k.

In my mind, it’s more like $10-15K.

There’s not much rust, aside from the rear sill.

The F155 runs well.

The pinstriping is super cool (and probably salvageable), and it’s a pretty decent survivor.

But I couldn’t let the Rancho suspension stay, and I’d only be comfortable with at least dial circuit brakes, and preferably discs up front.

The pictures don’t show it as well as it is, but I agree it’s probably overpriced by a good bit. Never know what someone from the east coast might pay though.

@KC Masterpiece you are not alone. I often wonder if I over paid for my 80. But then I remember:
1. it’s only money
2. can’t take it with you
3. I could spend WAY more on a gambling habit.
4. I am happy every time I drive it.

Then I don’t feel so bad. 😁

Oh i dont feel too bad. Its in amazing shape but had a surprise corrosion area on the frame. Trying to figure out the best way to address it economically. Or I could go balls to the walls and find an 80 frame to drop it on and LS swap. The thought has crossed my mind.....

The 60 was also almost entirely paid for by our elected representatives. Bought a ton of nvidia stock right before the semi conductor bill went through. I kept some but we sold at a 120% return. I should name her Nancy.

If I had the cash laying around, no brainer! Given the sellers trade interests I'd buy with confidence
