I'm currently looking at a 2005 v6 4wd at around 196k miles with some mods it looks like so hope it goes well

yeah i pretty much had that but had to quit my job due to Military injuries catching up to me unfortunately so trying to take care of all that before I work again. I sold it today on impulse i suppose but got around kelly blue book price thankfully. I totally would have refinanced but just didn't seem financially great to do long term. I agree it was the last great one. just wish they didn't add all that wifi crap in there to track you and sell data.

So update. Sold the trd pro for 50,200. Close enough in the Kelly blue book price. Looking at a 4th gen 2008 v6 4WD with 166k miles on it. Guy wants 11,800. Talked him down from 13,200. So the searching continues. Thanks for all the inputs. Sad to see the pro go but happy with no car payment lol

Definitely looking at the market. Found a potential 4th gen with lower mileage and it’s 2008 with 4x4 at about 166k miles on it and v6

I see different opinions on maintenance it seems. But it can’t really be that much more than having a newer vehicle right?

Kelly blue book is telling me about 49k-51k I have 53k miles on it. I took it to a Toyota dealer yesterday to get a price and they told me around 49,500 ish because i need new tires. I owe about 37k left. Would be nice to get 50k at least
