I own a 1999 Tacoma single cab 4wd that I bought new. It's never been used for anything other than the occasional home depot run and a few weekly errands. It's the base model 2.7L in 056 natural white with no power options. It's never been driven off road or in the rain and always garaged. A true time capsule that gets a crazy amount of attention whenever I take it out.
Agree 100% I have a '21 Sport 4x2 that I put some extras on. MSRP was 38K and I got 2K off pre Covid. Put 5K of extras and I plan on keeping it for a long time
Bought a 2023 TRD Off Road Dual Cab 6-Speed Manual that was fully loaded, just over a week ago. Mileage was a little over 17,000 miles. Drove off the lot at $46,500 and financed $36,500.
Congrats!! I just bought a 22 taco TRD OR 4x4 v6 automatic, double cab, 27,800 miles, $36,800, v6, technology pkg, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!! It’s a keeper
I have a 2023 Tacoma SR5 4x4 that I paid $37 for last year (no dealer add-ons). It has gone up in value, not down. Even the trade-in value is basically what I paid for it.
About a month ago I got a pretty good deal on a '22 TRD Sport double cab 4x2 fully loaded with the premium and technology packages, 25k miles, first owner had it serviced religiously every 5k miles, for $36,800, and a lifetime powertrain warranty was included in the price! Put 10k down and financed the rest. Wanted to get a low mileage used one since I foolishly didn't buy a new one when I had the chance and I'm not interested in the 4th Gen. Already had the AWE true dual exhaust installed(which sounds amazing btw with no drone) and just had the OTT tune done 2 days ago which absolutely transforms the way the truck drives and I highly recommend it to anyone on the fence about doing it, worth every penny! I also added a drop in AFE high flow dry air filter, I blacked out the Taco and V6 badges as well as the Tacoma stamped on the tailgate. I'm also installing full LED taillights with a black housing and smoked lens and Tri-LED headlights with a black housing because I can't stand the chrome on the stock lights. Also had it ceramic coated. Love this truck more every day and I'm never getting rid of it!
Historically a Turbo engine simply doesn’t last as long as a Naturally Aspirated (NA) engine. That’s why I chose to buy a new 23 TRD Off Road, double cab, 6’ bed, with the Premium and Technology pkgs with the TRD Performance exhaust system, instead of waiting for an identical 24 TRD Turbo. My last Toyota with a 3.5L NA V6 had just over 300K miles and it still wasn’t burning or leaking oil. I LOVE the 3.5L V6, but the 4.0L V6 was a better engine.

Just got my 2017 Tacoma TRD sport 4x4 with 50k miles, advanced tech package, and very well taken care of appraised at CarMax this weekend. They valued it at $27,000!!!
Agreed. I had choice and went 22 sport because I knew it was the last of it's kind and I knew it would hold value. Drove my 02 prerunner for 20 years with very little maintenance. Just change oil at 3k
Bought my fully loaded 2020 OR 4x4 for 43k OTD. 4 years later and I havent even hit 35k miles on it. Not getting rid of it any time soon thats for sure!
Awesome video! Have a 2010 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 crewcab in magnetic gray with just over 90k miles. I rarely used the truck over the years due to having other vehicles to commute to work. I seriously was thinking of trading it in for a new Tacoma but decided I'll be holding on to my Tacoma a little longer. The only trouble I had was the alternator went bad and had it replaced. Besides that and regular oil change and maintenance, the truck is solid and runs like a champ. Thanks for sharing!
I got a 2022 SR5 V6 4dr 4WD new for 38K in NW Indiana. Drove thru the used lot yesterday and they had probably 10 used Tacos for going about what they went for new 2 years ago.
Any gasoline engine that is turbocharged needs additional or more frequent maintenance. They run hotter and engines and gaskets tend to have lightly higher pressures. Ford and Honda are discovering those issues. Even though Toyota entered this late in the game, there are just issues that are innate to using this type of engine.
I’d LOVE to have a new (current generation) 4Runner Limited for my wife, but a few months ago we bought a new 23 TRD Off Road, double cab, 6’ bed with the Premium and Technology pkgs.
I bought a new 23 TRD Off Road, double cab, 6’ bed with the Premium and Technology plugs, running boards, a hard Tri- Fold tonneau cover, an 8 year 75K mile bumper to bumper warranty and free lifetime oil and filter changes, plus a tire rotation for $48K. Today my 23 TRD books out for almost $52K., not including the running boards, tonneau cover or extended warranty, or the lifetime free oil changes. I drive 6-8K miles per year and I’m pushing 60 years old, so it’s safe to say that I’ll drive my Tacoma until I die. I added mud flaps, a bug shield, so trim pieces, a Cold Air intake and an Overland Torque Tune (OTT). Oh yeah, my TRD came with the TRD Performance exhaust system.
@@richarddunning6095 Yes the OTT is worth it. It STOPPED the transmission from “hunting” . The instant 25 more horsepower and 25 more LB Ft of torque at 2200 RPM (instead of the standard 3,600 RPM, ABSOLUTELY? I would definitely recommend it. Worth every penny !
I have 2017 SR5 4x4 in quicksand Paid $31,200 new! I have 120k and about 10k in upgrades suspension, wheels and tires. I don’t abuse it. The interior is kept immaculate. Exterior is in excellent condition minus a few small rock chips, which is normal for a 7 year old offroad truck, oil changed every 5k, all fluids changed at scheduled times- I received a lowball CarMax offer at 29k- unbelievable It was just me being curious as I’m not selling, love my 3rd gen
California has always been overpriced in the new and used automobiles. But you are correct, the older Taco's, 4Runners, and Tundra's will only be more sought after as Toyota moves away from what made them a top auto manufacturer
Im hanging on to my '19 SR5 w/3.5l with 30k miles on it! Love the juice it has with the V6 and its proven bulletproof! The newer model Tacomas are SO overpriced, I dont even entertain the thought of trading up to one. I'll wait a couple years and wait for this builds reputation to be built. Of course the price will have to stabilize as well.
I ended up getting a 24 TRD off-road premium 4Runner, was not looking or thinking of buying a vehicle of any sort, an opportunity arose to look at a 4Runner, did some research & realized what was taking place with the 25 versions, I have a 98 Tacoma & have owned other Toyota vehicles in the past & know for a fact old school is for me & as long as I take care of it, it will last!! Snagged up the 24 after researching & am very, very grateful the opportunity arose to get it & I really like it!! I do like the looks of the 25 trail hunter, but don't like that u can't get some of the options that the 24 has, like manual shift transfer case & I really don't think a 4 cylinder is going to need an 8 speed transmission, & I'm sure I would not like the price of the 25.
I had a 99 Taco and now have a (bought w/40,000 )2015 Tundra w/ 130,000. It had a 26 gal tank and installed a 46 gal. It has been paid off for years and I think it may just last forever.
bought a 2012 trd sport ,4.0L 6 cyl,long bed new for 35,500 out the door..she has 132K on her and NEVER let me down....thought about a new one but no way on the 4 cyl turbo for 23 K more. way to high.....let them stay on the lots and fester....wise up Toyota,youmhad a good thing and blew it.....keeping my 2012 for ten years more....these gen 2 last forever
I really believe it's going to affect all the previous Toyota models. Like you say, definitely in regards to the used ones you showed, but I think it's going to cause a jump in second gen Tacomas, and even fourth gen 4Runners. Those are still very reliable platforms and the 1GR-FE 4.0 is solid and well respected. Those who can't afford the fifth gen 4Runner, or a third gen Tacoma, may be willing to pay for a good older Toyota. It certainly makes it seem like a worthwhile investment to refresh my old 4th gen 4Runner and just keep driving it. It's at 288k currently and been an excellent vehicle. I hope Toyota realizes that not everyone is as excited about turbo engines as they think.
I bought a new 2006 4Runner V8 Sport Edition. Today it has 41,000 original miles. I still enjoy driving a V8, and will drive it till the wheels fall off! The prices for a Toyota 4 banger with turbo, is insane! I would have bought a new 2025 4Runner, if they had kept the V8 or V6 engines.
I paid $22k in 2012 for my 2008 4x4 AC 6' bed with 59k miles at the time. Still have the truck in better condition ( had all of the dings taken out and added quite a few upgrades) with only 76k miles. Low miles were due to being in trucking and not driving it much. I'm retired now so the miles aren't going to pile up too much.
Definitely a more cost effective way to get a supercharged Tacoma… my only concern would be on how the prior owner drove it.. especially if it has higher miles on it.
I ordered my 21 TRD off road Tacoma with tech package. Out the door was 41k. I just hit 18200 miles. I was going to trade it in for the 24 but those bat shit crazy prices stopped me.
Just bought a used ‘23 trd off road 4x4 with premium and technology package. Only 6k miles. Price was 43k. I got 18k for my 2019 frontier sv crew cab 4x4 (which was paid off) thought i got a decent deal, since i seen other lesser tacomas in the same price range.
Back in Nov '19, I bought a 2 year lease return on a '17 TRD Sport, ext cab, V6 with cold weather package for $28k. A couple months ago I was offered 30k in cash. I said no thanks, I love my truck.
I had to drive from San Diego and find the OFF Road MT 2022 last month in Phoenix and bought it for 41k with 30k miles. Seeing this video makes me feel good about my purchase. Thank you for posting this.
I've a 2003 TRD OffRoad SR5 Tacoma 4x4 extra cab 3.4 L V-6 with 415, 216 miles on it. I paid $16,000 in 2006 ,with 39,000 miles, for the truck, I was just offered $17.500 for it. Original paint , never wrecked, Still gets 16 in the city and 20 on the highway just as it did new. I'll drive it until the wheels fall off then glue them back on for a few more miles. Change the
They have always retained their value well but may be holding strong because of the V6's. Mileage for some reason is irrelevant on a Tacoma or 4Runner, the prices stay high through 60-80k miles. That was a lot of 3rd Gens! They are quite a bit less expensive in DFW
Paid $42k for my 2022 TRDOR new. A 2024 similarly appointed Tacoma would probably cost me $53k. Glad I got mine and didn't wait. I considered holding on to my Silverado until the next gen had come out. It was all rumors back in 2022 about the 4th gen looks and powertrain so I just pulled the trigger on the 2022. Will keep it for a long time but it might be my last Toyota.
I bought my first taco four years ago a one owner car fax certified 2012 TRD sport 4x4 double cab in manual I added a few tasteful mods and will not be getting rid of her anytime soon 😎👍🏽
I got may 2017 tacoma pro new and believe I paid around $44k/$45k out the door after taxes, licenses, ect. I'm not sure what I'd own after the wheels fall off it in the future.
You need to go on Carvana because they are giving very good values on older Tacoma's I did it to see what they will buy mine and could not believe it. I have a 22 Tacoma SR5 with only 1850 miles on it and was offered 36K.
I was looking at buying a used Tacoma. No way with these prices. I have a 1996 Tacoma SR5 4x4 V6 Automatic with 328,000. Still runs and looks great. I have people all the time want to buy it. I guess I am holding onto it for a few more years.
Bought a used 2015 TRD Pro for 29k back in 2017 with 20k miles. Now I have people asking when I want to sell let them know they will give top dollar even with 100k for same price I paid.
I had both a 2021 Ranger and now have a 2022 TRD Pro Tacoma. The 4 cylinder turbo 10 speed in the Ranger was much much more comfortable and a way better drive than the 3rd gen Tacoma. Bring on the new 4 banger!
2017 sr5 4x4 with 2.5 ome/blistein lift, 33’s, many extras,, 70k miles,,,worth the same today as I walked out the door paying in 2017 according to car fax, no,,she’s not going anywhere for a long time
Toyota fanboy here. If you are interested in a mid to low mileage V6 auto Tacoma, you might want to consider a Frontier instead. They are comparable in reliability, better auto transmission, more unique, etc and you can get a brand new Pro-4X(their top trim) for the price of a used TRD Offroad Tacoma. Keep in mind, build quality is the same, if not better on the Frontier, plus it will have ZERO wear and tear and a FULL warranty. Additionally, if you want a modern mid size truck that could last to 1,000,000 miles, and all you care about is reliability, find a Tacoma with a 2.7 inline 4. Try to find one with a manual trans and it will last your lifetime. Just my $0.02
Only bad thing about the new Frontier is it's direct injected only, so there will be issues with carbon buildup on the intake valves. I like that the 3.5 in the Tacoma is direct and port injected, don't have to worry about carbon buildup issues
The 4th Gen is selling well in the Twin Cities in Minnesota. Had my oil changed and only two 4th gen SR5 in stock and 8 3rd gen. So, there are some suckers out there! Who I'm kidding my state is full of them. The 3rd gen where around the same price as yours. No mark ups or dealer add-ons, only port crap!!!
I literally just got back from trying to trade in my 2020 4Runner TRD OR premium, 49k miles. The dealer wanted to give me $28k for it on trade in. This was in south Texas, I laughed, got up, shook his hand, thanked him for his time and walked away.
@@westcoasttaco GMC Canyon AT4X. I really wanted to get back into a taco after my 4R, but money-wise I can get a lot more truck with the Canyon than any Tacoma trim.
Funny, 9 months ago my buddies said I was crazy for driving 4 hours to buy a 2023 Taco TRD Pro in Solar Octane at $2000 under MSRP. Why would you buy the old outgoing model when the new will be so much better and available in just a few months!? lol…
I just traded in my 2024 for a low mileage 2023 after being run around for a month trying to install a trailer brake controller in the 2024 . I've owned 5 Tacomas and the 2024 really let me down when trying to install a brake controller . ---Why would they tell me that the truck can pull 6400 pounds with no way to add a brake control
I'm keeping my 2007 Tundra with 241,800 miles, til the day they plant me. It's in great shape mechanically and body wise. Why would I ever trade it in on a new one when they are so unreliable and expensive? I went to Denver and bought my Tundra in 2022 with 213,000 miles on it. I was that confident in Toyota that I bought a high mileage truck. The new ones will never make it to 200,000 miles or more.
Depending on the condition of the truck I would guess between 12-19k?? Honestly that truck will probably run forever…. The value is in not having to worry about it breaking down. I would hold it forever if I was you.
I'm very glad I bought my new 2022 Tacoma SR for $29,000 when I did. I wouldn't touch those new turbo models and I think Toyota is going to regret their decision.
I'm right north of you in Orange County, CA. Besides the turbos, the dealers are still marking them up or adding a lot of useless and overpriced extras. Those dealers are doing their best to drive customers over to the Nissan dealerships for a normally aspirated V6 Frontier. I'll be pulling the trigger before Independence Day and right now it looks like my 40 years of buying Toyotas will come to an end.
Sorry, even if Toyota or somebody else offered to trade me a 2024 Tacoma trd pro straight up for my 2022 trd pro, I’d have to say no. The fourth gen is significantly cheaper overall than the previous gen!😳
Well said brother even if free repair service for life was offered on the new ones. Sad to say but why pay way more for a way less reliable vehicle? No thanks, but good luck to those who waited and do/will regret not pulling the trigger earlier. -Team Toyota since 1985!
@@TOYguy-25 Totally agree my friend. Yea, been a Tacoma owner since 1998 so I can walk the walk and talk the talk, unlike somebody that’s ONLY owned a third gen or even a second gen.
Army Green 2021 Tacoma long bed TRD Sport premium sound "JBL" sun roof and hard bed cover. I paid 52,000 brand new. I put 34,000 miles .. I will be buried with my truck.
I love the old Tacoma but another old Tacoma owner talking bad about the new one because they probably wanted to upgrade but saw the price increase so they’re blaming the engine. Let’s be honest, the average 2023 car sold price was 48,000 - you can Google this. The Tacoma has definitely increased in price throughout the years but it’s just average. The 65-70k comment that old generation owners love to make are complete gibberish. First off, that’s only for the TRD PRO and Trailhunter for 65k. Most owners today with the current gen don’t even have a TRD Pro anyways so your average Tacoma owner will not spend more than 50k on a new generation Tacoma which is inline with the AVERAGE new car price. Lastly, why do old gen owners talk about turbo engines like they’re new? They been out for decades. You don’t think Toyota hired someone from a German car company who is familiar with turbo engines? Come on now, the new Tacomas with smaller engines are faster, stronger, better looking than the previous gen. Old gen owners are so salty and jealous. Yea I know it’s expensive but it’s just your average priced car. The 65-70k reference is bull… as if everyone drives a PRO lol. Not sure where you live in SoCal but there’s a lot of discounts on old gen 4Runners and Tacomas up north.
I actually don't like my third gen very much. I'm pretty sure I wouldnt buy the new gen. Really if I wanted to go the turbo 4 route I think I would buy one of the gm twins. Not the new gen Tacoma . I think a lot of people are upset because they feel like they are being " priced out" of the market. Most of the people buying these it's because they can't afford to spend 75k on a full-sized GMC. So they pick up these smaller trucks cheaper. But over the last years the small and midsized truck segment has increased in price as well. If you were a person just hardly affording a truck before, these increases are going to hurt. Far as the turbo. I would prefer not having one if keeping a vehicle . More concern, more maintenance. If it was short term I'd take a turbo, or a lease. The trucks still in it's first model year. Tundra had issues. It's probably going to be okay but we will have to wait. Honesty if I was going to get a turbo it sure wouldn't be a Tacoma. Maybe a Porsche 911 😂😂😂. If it was a inline turbo diesel in the Tacoma I'd feel more comfortable with that. Either way it's not just about the turbo. The truck went up in price where a lot of it's customers will have trouble getting another one. Its also a new design, more complicated, always should avoid the new design for at least a year or two. There is also moving more production to Mexico. Lot of people are upset about that. And the quality issues that could result, or have resulted. Plus the sharing the platforms basically makes the Lexus, 4 runner, land cruiser, Tacoma pretty much all the same vehicle. Toyota cut corners hard. Even worse than they were before. And I actually think my tacoma they totally cut corners on. The new gen is probably built even crappier. But time will tell. I'm waiting to see how the frames hold up.
I get everybody’s reservations, but obviously they don’t know history. When the 1-ur and 1GR/2gr first came out there was recalls and problems out the butt. Anything from blown head gaskets, catastrophic failures, stretched timing chains, but everybody apparently has amnesia ha ha ha ha. If you do research and actually see exactly what Toyota has done to this four-cylinder to make it reliable, you understand and safe purchasing one. Are they going to be growing pains? Yes absolutely just like there was with the engines of 15 years ago that are now known as being legendary the 2.4 turbo and the 3.4 twin turbo will be legendary because they will continue to get revisions and updates within, five years it will be absolutely rock solid. In addition to that all manufactures use consumer grade turbo Toyota/Lexus is the only one who is using a commercial grade turbo charger.
Old Tacoma's values are increasing because nobody wants to buy the new one.
Pricing are insane, especially on the new models. Toyota seems to have forgotten about their original market…as did many other auto manufacturers

I bought a new 23 TRD Off Road, double cab, 6’ bed with the Premium and Technology plugs, running boards, a hard Tri- Fold tonneau cover, an 8 year 75K mile bumper to bumper warranty and free lifetime oil and filter changes, plus a tire rotation for $48K.
Today my 23 TRD books out for almost $52K., not including the running boards, tonneau cover or extended warranty, or the lifetime free oil changes.
I drive 6-8K miles per year and I’m pushing 60 years old, so it’s safe to say that I’ll drive my Tacoma until I die.
I added mud flaps, a bug shield, so trim pieces, a Cold Air intake and an Overland Torque Tune (OTT).
Oh yeah, my TRD came with the TRD Performance exhaust system.
Please tell me if the overland tune is worth it… I’m also 60y old. Just want a seasoned man’s perspective.
@@richarddunning6095 Yes the OTT is worth it.
It STOPPED the transmission from “hunting” .
The instant 25 more horsepower and 25 more LB Ft of torque at 2200 RPM (instead of the standard 3,600 RPM, ABSOLUTELY?
I would definitely recommend it.
Worth every penny !
I have 2017 SR5 4x4 in quicksand
Paid $31,200 new! I have 120k and about 10k in upgrades suspension, wheels and tires. I don’t abuse it. The interior is kept immaculate. Exterior is in excellent condition minus a few small rock chips, which is normal for a 7 year old offroad truck, oil changed every 5k, all fluids changed at scheduled times- I received a lowball CarMax offer at 29k- unbelievable
It was just me being curious as I’m not selling, love my 3rd gen
I bought an off-road in January. Because I wanted to buy the last V6 , They make for that reason paid 37 out the door for trd Off-road.
There's always idiots who will gladly pay whatever the dealer asks...and There's lots of them.
California has always been overpriced in the new and used automobiles. But you are correct, the older Taco's, 4Runners, and Tundra's will only be more sought after as Toyota moves away from what made them a top auto manufacturer
Im hanging on to my '19 SR5 w/3.5l with 30k miles on it! Love the juice it has with the V6 and its proven bulletproof! The newer model Tacomas are SO overpriced, I dont even entertain the thought of trading up to one. I'll wait a couple years and wait for this builds reputation to be built. Of course the price will have to stabilize as well.
I ended up getting a 24 TRD off-road premium 4Runner, was not looking or thinking of buying a vehicle of any sort, an opportunity arose to look at a 4Runner, did some research & realized what was taking place with the 25 versions, I have a 98 Tacoma & have owned other Toyota vehicles in the past & know for a fact old school is for me & as long as I take care of it, it will last!! Snagged up the 24 after researching & am very, very grateful the opportunity arose to get it & I really like it!! I do like the looks of the 25 trail hunter, but don't like that u can't get some of the options that the 24 has, like manual shift transfer case & I really don't think a 4 cylinder is going to need an 8 speed transmission, & I'm sure I would not like the price of the 25.
I had a 99 Taco and now have a (bought w/40,000 )2015 Tundra w/ 130,000. It had a 26 gal tank and installed a 46 gal. It has been paid off for years and I think it may just last forever.
bought a 2012 trd sport ,4.0L 6 cyl,long bed new for 35,500 out the door..she has 132K on her and NEVER let me down....thought about a new one but no way on the 4 cyl turbo for 23 K more. way to high.....let them stay on the lots and fester....wise up Toyota,youmhad a good thing and blew it.....keeping my 2012 for ten years more....these gen 2 last forever
Yeah here at mossy toyota we are buying all the 2016 to 2023 at auction.. we just took on 30 of them.. making 10 to 13 grand pure profit
I really believe it's going to affect all the previous Toyota models. Like you say, definitely in regards to the used ones you showed, but I think it's going to cause a jump in second gen Tacomas, and even fourth gen 4Runners. Those are still very reliable platforms and the 1GR-FE 4.0 is solid and well respected. Those who can't afford the fifth gen 4Runner, or a third gen Tacoma, may be willing to pay for a good older Toyota. It certainly makes it seem like a worthwhile investment to refresh my old 4th gen 4Runner and just keep driving it. It's at 288k currently and been an excellent vehicle. I hope Toyota realizes that not everyone is as excited about turbo engines as they think.
I bought a new 2006 4Runner V8 Sport Edition. Today it has 41,000 original miles. I still enjoy driving a V8, and will drive it till the wheels fall off! The prices for a Toyota 4 banger with turbo, is insane! I would have bought a new 2025 4Runner, if they had kept the V8 or V6 engines.
Thank you so much for sharing this!
Any time!
Just curious how much would cost my 23 Taco sr5 double cab 3.5 4x4 6ft box with only 3100 kms white color???
I paid $22k in 2012 for my 2008 4x4 AC 6' bed with 59k miles at the time. Still have the truck in better condition ( had all of the dings taken out and added quite a few upgrades) with only 76k miles. Low miles were due to being in trucking and not driving it much. I'm retired now so the miles aren't going to pile up too much.
Thanks for the video. What are your thoughts on buying used 3rd gen tacos with magnuson superchargers?
Definitely a more cost effective way to get a supercharged Tacoma… my only concern would be on how the prior owner drove it.. especially if it has higher miles on it.
I ordered my 21 TRD off road Tacoma with tech package. Out the door was 41k. I just hit 18200 miles. I was going to trade it in for the 24 but those bat shit crazy prices stopped me.
That’s been the trend since Toyota dropped the V8. I paid $55k for my 2019 Tundra Pro in 2018. It’s worth $65k now.
i saw this coming at the 2024 tacoma release. bought my 2021 tacoma with 26k miles for $32k back in february.
Just bought a used ‘23 trd off road 4x4 with premium and technology package. Only 6k miles. Price was 43k. I got 18k for my 2019 frontier sv crew cab 4x4 (which was paid off) thought i got a decent deal, since i seen other lesser tacomas in the same price range.
Back in Nov '19, I bought a 2 year lease return on a '17 TRD Sport, ext cab, V6 with cold weather package for $28k. A couple months ago I was offered 30k in cash. I said no thanks, I love my truck.
How many Off Road Manual did you see at Carlsbad ?
I didn’t see any MT’s
I had to drive from San Diego and find the OFF Road MT 2022 last month in Phoenix and bought it for 41k with 30k miles. Seeing this video makes me feel good about my purchase. Thank you for posting this.
Bought my CPO '21 TRD Off-Road double cab with the V6 and 58,000 miles for $32k about 8 months ago...thought that was steep but apparently not lol
I've a 2003 TRD OffRoad SR5 Tacoma 4x4 extra cab 3.4 L V-6 with 415, 216 miles on it. I paid $16,000 in 2006 ,with 39,000 miles, for the truck, I was just offered $17.500 for it. Original paint , never wrecked, Still gets 16 in the city and 20 on the highway just as it did new. I'll drive it until the wheels fall off then glue them back on for a few more miles. Change the
Nice! Almost 1/2 million miles!!😃
I currently own a 2015 Tacoma 4x4 V6 with 55K miles. I can't see myself ever selling it.
They have always retained their value well but may be holding strong because of the V6's. Mileage for some reason is irrelevant on a Tacoma or 4Runner, the prices stay high through 60-80k miles. That was a lot of 3rd Gens! They are quite a bit less expensive in DFW
I have a 2020 TRD 4x4 paied 42,000. Now has 25,000 on n it and it's still worth 41,700
Pretty much in the same boat as you are, except I am just shy of 35k miles.
2004 4Runner SR5 with 109,000 miles. I bought it 1/2020 with 103,000 miles $8400 cash. I think it has another 20 years in it.
Paid $42k for my 2022 TRDOR new. A 2024 similarly appointed Tacoma would probably cost me $53k. Glad I got mine and didn't wait. I considered holding on to my Silverado until the next gen had come out. It was all rumors back in 2022 about the 4th gen looks and powertrain so I just pulled the trigger on the 2022. Will keep it for a long time but it might be my last Toyota.
I bought my first taco four years ago a one owner car fax certified 2012 TRD sport 4x4 double cab in manual I added a few tasteful mods and will not be getting rid of her anytime soon 😎👍🏽
I got may 2017 tacoma pro new and believe I paid around $44k/$45k out the door after taxes, licenses, ect. I'm not sure what I'd own after the wheels fall off it in the future.
You need to go on Carvana because they are giving very good values on older Tacoma's I did it to see what they will buy mine and could not believe it. I have a 22 Tacoma SR5 with only 1850 miles on it and was offered 36K.
Jumped on my 2022 off road lunar rock manual as soon as i heard turbo 4 banger.
I was looking at buying a used Tacoma. No way with these prices. I have a 1996 Tacoma SR5 4x4 V6 Automatic with 328,000. Still runs and looks great. I have people all the time want to buy it. I guess I am holding onto it for a few more years.
Is this the same Scumbag dealership that had a Landcruiser on sale for 92k?
💯
Bought a used 2015 TRD Pro for 29k back in 2017 with 20k miles. Now I have people asking when I want to sell let them know they will give top dollar even with 100k for same price I paid.
Those old pros are gold!
3 months ago I bought a 4runner. 2017 4runner.
I had both a 2021 Ranger and now have a 2022 TRD Pro Tacoma.
The 4 cylinder turbo 10 speed in the Ranger was much much more comfortable and a way better drive than the 3rd gen Tacoma.
Bring on the new 4 banger!
Paid 50k cash for my 2021 TRD Pro in Lunar Rock with 19,000 miles back in November
I picked up a 2022 SR 4x4 with the four cylinder for 30k with only 11,000 miles on it back in January here in So. Cal. 👍
Good video. Thanks.
I just got a clean 21’ 4x4 sport Longbed DC with 27,000 miles from craigslist for $27k and feel like I’ve used all of my luck for this lifetime.
$38k
2017 sr5 4x4 with 2.5 ome/blistein lift, 33’s, many extras,, 70k miles,,,worth the same today as I walked out the door paying in 2017 according to car fax, no,,she’s not going anywhere for a long time
Toyota fanboy here. If you are interested in a mid to low mileage V6 auto Tacoma, you might want to consider a Frontier instead. They are comparable in reliability, better auto transmission, more unique, etc and you can get a brand new Pro-4X(their top trim) for the price of a used TRD Offroad Tacoma. Keep in mind, build quality is the same, if not better on the Frontier, plus it will have ZERO wear and tear and a FULL warranty.
Additionally, if you want a modern mid size truck that could last to 1,000,000 miles, and all you care about is reliability, find a Tacoma with a 2.7 inline 4. Try to find one with a manual trans and it will last your lifetime.
Just my $0.02
Only bad thing about the new Frontier is it's direct injected only, so there will be issues with carbon buildup on the intake valves. I like that the 3.5 in the Tacoma is direct and port injected, don't have to worry about carbon buildup issues
@@ericd1632 True.
The 4th Gen is selling well in the Twin Cities in Minnesota. Had my oil changed and only two 4th gen SR5 in stock and 8 3rd gen. So, there are some suckers out there! Who I'm kidding my state is full of them. The 3rd gen where around the same price as yours. No mark ups or dealer add-ons, only port crap!!!
2023 TRD Offroad 6spd lunar rock paid 40k OTD new.
I literally just got back from trying to trade in my 2020 4Runner TRD OR premium, 49k miles. The dealer wanted to give me $28k for it on trade in. This was in south Texas, I laughed, got up, shook his hand, thanked him for his time and walked away.
Why would you even want to trade it.
What were you going to trade it for??
@@westcoasttaco GMC Canyon AT4X. I really wanted to get back into a taco after my 4R, but money-wise I can get a lot more truck with the Canyon than any Tacoma trim.
@@mannyjimenez72 at4x is a good ride. If you current vehicle is not upside down and you have the money I guess why not?
2019 Sr5 sx v6 double cab i have it with 53k miles now
$32k
Funny, 9 months ago my buddies said I was crazy for driving 4 hours to buy a 2023 Taco TRD Pro in Solar Octane at $2000 under MSRP.
Why would you buy the old outgoing model when the new will be so much better and available in just a few months!?
lol…
Good for you 👍🏼👊🏼
Paid $38K out the door for my 2019 4x4 Sport MT that I purchased new. It’s too good of a truck for me to trade in for an unknown commodity
2018 TRD Offroad M/T bought new for 35k only has 19,000 miles on it now 2024
I just traded in my 2024 for a low mileage 2023 after being run around for a month trying to install a trailer brake controller in the 2024 . I've owned 5 Tacomas and the 2024 really let me down when trying to install a brake controller . ---Why would they tell me that the truck can pull 6400 pounds with no way to add a brake control
What did they give you for trade in value? Just curious… also, what trim level?
I'm keeping my 2007 Tundra with 241,800 miles, til the day they plant me. It's in great shape mechanically and body wise. Why would I ever trade it in on a new one when they are so unreliable and expensive? I went to Denver and bought my Tundra in 2022 with 213,000 miles on it. I was that confident in Toyota that I bought a high mileage truck. The new ones will never make it to 200,000 miles or more.
I have a 2003 Tundra limited extra cab with original 89k miles. How much can I get for it?
Depending on the condition of the truck I would guess between 12-19k?? Honestly that truck will probably run forever…. The value is in not having to worry about it breaking down. I would hold it forever if I was you.
2016 Trd off road 126,000 miles 4x4, $36,700 in sept of 2015

Adding to my last comment. I have 110K on it. Not planning to buy a new ‘24 Tacoma.
I'm in no hurry to get rid of my like new 2016 Highlander with the 2GR and 106k on it....
2023 Tacoma TRD PRO , solar octane, 13k miles. I got my for 44500 😊. I luv it
I'm very glad I bought my new 2022 Tacoma SR for $29,000 when I did. I wouldn't touch those new turbo models and I think Toyota is going to regret their decision.
I'm right north of you in Orange County, CA. Besides the turbos, the dealers are still marking them up or adding a lot of useless and overpriced extras. Those dealers are doing their best to drive customers over to the Nissan dealerships for a normally aspirated V6 Frontier. I'll be pulling the trigger before Independence Day and right now it looks like my 40 years of buying Toyotas will come to an end.
Frontiers are looking really nice!👍🏼
Woww can believe that the Tundra you showed is less expensive than a used Tacoma all over 40 grand.
The tundra is a great deal!
Got mine back in 2021 for 41k! army green long bed TRD off road
I have the same truck with the premium package. It’s a badass truck! Army Green is the best color
same here, 0 miles '21 for 40,500. 17K miles at the moment
@@alex0lan mine has 35k miles 😁
@@zackg5046 yes it is! Im glad I went with this color 😁
Sorry, even if Toyota or somebody else offered to trade me a 2024 Tacoma trd pro straight up for my 2022 trd pro, I’d have to say no. The fourth gen is significantly cheaper overall than the previous gen!😳
Well said brother even if free repair service for life was offered on the new ones. Sad to say but why pay way more for a way less reliable vehicle? No thanks, but good luck to those who waited and do/will regret not pulling the trigger earlier. -Team Toyota since 1985!
@@TOYguy-25 Totally agree my friend. Yea, been a Tacoma owner since 1998 so I can walk the walk and talk the talk, unlike somebody that’s ONLY owned a third gen or even a second gen.
I wouldn't trade my 2010 straight for a new one
Just bought my 2023 Tacoma TRD OR Lunar Rock last July for 42k. I was thinking of holding out for the 2024, but glad I didn’t now!…oh and I love it! 😅
Good call!
These turbocharged engines are expensive to replace.
Army Green 2021 Tacoma long bed TRD Sport premium sound "JBL" sun roof and hard bed cover. I paid 52,000 brand new. I put 34,000 miles .. I will be buried with my truck.

NISSAN SHOULD BE MARKETING TOWARD TACOMA PEOPLE AND POINT OUT THE FACTS. THEY ARE GOING TO BE GETTING ALOT OF ACTION ON THE FRONTIER!!
I love the old Tacoma but another old Tacoma owner talking bad about the new one because they probably wanted to upgrade but saw the price increase so they’re blaming the engine. Let’s be honest, the average 2023 car sold price was 48,000 - you can Google this. The Tacoma has definitely increased in price throughout the years but it’s just average. The 65-70k comment that old generation owners love to make are complete gibberish. First off, that’s only for the TRD PRO and Trailhunter for 65k. Most owners today with the current gen don’t even have a TRD Pro anyways so your average Tacoma owner will not spend more than 50k on a new generation Tacoma which is inline with the AVERAGE new car price. Lastly, why do old gen owners talk about turbo engines like they’re new? They been out for decades. You don’t think Toyota hired someone from a German car company who is familiar with turbo engines? Come on now, the new Tacomas with smaller engines are faster, stronger, better looking than the previous gen. Old gen owners are so salty and jealous. Yea I know it’s expensive but it’s just your average priced car. The 65-70k reference is bull… as if everyone drives a PRO lol. Not sure where you live in SoCal but there’s a lot of discounts on old gen 4Runners and Tacomas up north.
I actually don't like my third gen very much. I'm pretty sure I wouldnt buy the new gen.
Really if I wanted to go the turbo 4 route I think I would buy one of the gm twins. Not the new gen Tacoma .
I think a lot of people are upset because they feel like they are being " priced out" of the market. Most of the people buying these it's because they can't afford to spend 75k on a full-sized GMC. So they pick up these smaller trucks cheaper. But over the last years the small and midsized truck segment has increased in price as well. If you were a person just hardly affording a truck before, these increases are going to hurt.
Far as the turbo. I would prefer not having one if keeping a vehicle . More concern, more maintenance. If it was short term I'd take a turbo, or a lease.
The trucks still in it's first model year. Tundra had issues. It's probably going to be okay but we will have to wait.
Honesty if I was going to get a turbo it sure wouldn't be a Tacoma. Maybe a Porsche 911 😂😂😂.
If it was a inline turbo diesel in the Tacoma I'd feel more comfortable with that. Either way it's not just about the turbo. The truck went up in price where a lot of it's customers will have trouble getting another one. Its also a new design, more complicated, always should avoid the new design for at least a year or two.
There is also moving more production to Mexico. Lot of people are upset about that. And the quality issues that could result, or have resulted. Plus the sharing the platforms basically makes the Lexus, 4 runner, land cruiser, Tacoma pretty much all the same vehicle. Toyota cut corners hard. Even worse than they were before. And I actually think my tacoma they totally cut corners on. The new gen is probably built even crappier. But time will tell. I'm waiting to see how the frames hold up.
I get everybody’s reservations, but obviously they don’t know history. When the 1-ur and 1GR/2gr first came out there was recalls and problems out the butt. Anything from blown head gaskets, catastrophic failures, stretched timing chains, but everybody apparently has amnesia ha ha ha ha. If you do research and actually see exactly what Toyota has done to this four-cylinder to make it reliable, you understand and safe purchasing one. Are they going to be growing pains? Yes absolutely just like there was with the engines of 15 years ago that are now known as being legendary the 2.4 turbo and the 3.4 twin turbo will be legendary because they will continue to get revisions and updates within, five years it will be absolutely rock solid. In addition to that all manufactures use consumer grade turbo Toyota/Lexus is the only one who is using a commercial grade turbo charger.
I paid 31K for my ‘13 Tacoma TRD Sport fully loaded.
I just bought my 23 TRD OR technology package 4x4 v6 for 43k in NorCal brand new. Yey
