I purchased mine new in '98. TRD extra cab. Have 85,500 miles on it with no problems (nock on wood). Never tuned up. Second set of tires. Just replaced the Bilsteins. Toyota warranty would'nt cover the blown seals. Believe I paid 24K. If I were you, I'd go with the Tundra if your lookin to put four people in the truck. Four adults in a Tacoma and your gonna feel the power loss.
