2003 Toyota Tacoma SR5 in Lunar Mist Metallic with Gray cloth upholstery. An extremely rare find with only 37k miles. This truck was owned by an 88 year old man who has chosen to be driven rather than drive from now on. It has been very well cared for, serviced at the dealer (Toyota of Westport), and garaged. It is in excellent condition and it runs and drives perfectly as you would expect.
The exterior of the truck is in very good condition. The paint holds a very deep shine and shows no signs of fade. There is no rust. The truck has not been in any accidents nor has it had any paintwork. It does show some light scratches, dings, chips etc. that you would expect to see on a truck. Most notably: there is a crease under the left tail light, there are scratches above the handle to the tailgate, and the rear bumper has slightly bend under the license plate which has caused the chrome to flake (<1 inch). I would be happy to send close up photos if you would like. The chrome, glass and trim are all in very good condition as well.
The interior of the truck is also in very good condition. The seats are still firm and supportive. The cloth upholstery and carpets are free from any noticeable staining or heavy dirt. We have a set of Toyota mats that will be included although they do not appear in the photos. The truck has been owned by non-smokers and is free from any strange odors. Dashboard and headliner are also in very good shape. The interior is in great shape and shows very little wear. All interior systems work as they should. Although the truck has very few convenience features, everything is working properly. Heat is hot and A/C is cold.
Mechanically, the truck is perfect. The engine is strong and the transmission shifts smoothly. It had it's 30k mile service performed at the dealer and the frame was also rust proofed by the dealer as part of the recall. Tires and brakes are in very good condition. It drives as you would expect a Tacoma with 37k miles to drive, flawlessly.
The Toyota Tacoma is an extremely popular vehicle. These trucks have earned a reputation for being durable, efficient, and for having an engine that is nearly indestructible. Having such low miles and being in excellent condition makes this truck a very rare find. I would be happy to show the truck or answer any questions you may have.

Toyota Prius line may not reach 2013 sales target
Mon, 22 Apr 20132012 was a good year for the Toyota Prius line, the hybrid that started it all moving 236,659 units, being the best-selling model in California for the year and the Prius C (pictured) being deemed the most reliable car of 2012 by Consumer Reports. Then 2013 happened, and gas prices dropped more than expected, and people haven't been buying the little hybrids like they used to.
A report in Bloomberg says Toyota set 250,000 units as the Prius family's sales target for this year, but hits like the double-digit drop in year-on-year performance in February have helped lower 2013 sales by 8.4 percent compared to 2012, making the objective "a challenge" to reach. The declines in Prius sales come even as hybrid sales overall were up in the first couple of months this year, including sales of other Toyota and Lexus hybrids. Jim Lentz, Toyota's North American chief, said the Prius target would be adjusted if necessary.
Toyota settles complaints with states Attorneys General for $29 million
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Toyota announced today that it has reached a settlement with the Attorneys General of 29 states and one US territory that will resolve their complaints relating to recalls performed by the automaker from 2005-2010, including those related to sticky accelerators and malfunctioning floor mats that may have contributed to cases of unintended acceleration.
The settlement includes a payout of $29 million to be divided among the states and US territory, as well as a commitment from Toyota "to take steps to make vehicle information more easily accessible to consumers to help them operate their vehicles safely and make more informed choices." The settlement also has Toyota continuing its rapid-response service teams and quality field offices that were put in place shortly after the largest of the recalls from 2010, as well as a "range of customer care amenities for owners of vehicles subject to certain recalls," though the press release below isn't specific about what those amenities might be.
This settlement marks the second major step in the last few months that Toyota has taken to settle legal disputes surrounding the unintended acceleration recalls, the first being a $1.4 billion settlement to address economic loss suffered by owners of current and past Toyota vehicles that may have lost value on account of these recalls.
2013 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport
Tue, 16 Apr 2013"Oh yeah, Toyota still makes the Tacoma." Admit it, that's what you just said to yourself. It's a perfectly natural reaction, but the Tacoma has been quietly anchoring its segment for years, outselling every other compact pickup without making too much of a fuss. Toyota hasn't neglected the Tacoma - it was updated in 2012 with a revised nose and interior as the most noteable changes.
In a world awash with high-value fullsize pickups all vying for your attention, the Tacoma still charms more than a few buyers out of their cash. I hooked a Tacoma for a week to see whether it still has enough to recommend it.
