Hello everyone! Lemme start off saying this board seems like a great place to learn some cool stuff! Anyways, Im picking up my first Tacoma today in a few hours and I couldnt be more psyched. I only managed to get a few hours of sleep last night becuase i couldnt stop thinking about it so forgive me if I seem exciteable right now <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/drunk.gif" alt="" /> Its a 98 Xtra Cab 2.7 5Spd with 69,xxx on the clock. Its pure good luck i ran into it when i Did, the dealer had gotten it in yesterday and was going to ship it out to auction but I said Aww hell no <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/mrt.gif" alt="" /> let me see that thing. He gave me a price before either of us had even looked at it, so at $7300 Im practically robbing this dude. Hopefully i can get some pics or sometihg up sometime soon. well thanks for listening to the rant hah, Cheers.

Congrats! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Welcome, that is some low mileage for that year. I have a 98 and have 161,000 and I think that is pretty good. Where in Maine are you from, I am in the Farmington area when I am not at school.

Welcome. I got a 1999 with over 175K now. Good buy!

Welcome,Good find! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Nice snag for an xcab! Welcome aboard, and good luck on the deal! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

You'll love the 2.7L. PLenty of power and good gas mileage. My girlfriend and I both own Toyota trucks with this engine...solid motor.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! Im so pleased with this new rig, its smooth as can be. Shifts like a champ, and I cant believe how awesome this 2.7 is! My last two toyotas being an 88 Pickup and an 89 4 runner its cool to compare the differences in.. everything hah

DentedTacoma- Im down in the york/ogunquit area for this summer. Ive got a friend who lives on 27 acres of rock quarry so thats where im gunna go to break her in <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" />

There might be some runs this summer of a bunch of guys on TTORA so I will let you know. If you have some available land then it could be a place to go wheel, I usually run skidder trails and winter snowmobile trails. I am also a drummer if that is what your name represents, got a Tama that I bang on occasionally. Might see you around.

Why would any drummer would waste their money on a Tama <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I bang on a Pearl myself, but to each his own. Welcome <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
