I need to buy a truck for work.. for around 6K. Been looking on CL for a tacoma 2.7L With 4X4, but ppl wants too much for it.. anyone knows of a friend or family selling one.

Has to be in good running condition..

Or suggest any other car i should look for?

 

Get Zoebs dodge ram

 

I perfer an import since they are better on gas.. SUV will do to w/ 4x4

 

Don't think your going to get any better gas mileage with an import truck. I have never got better then 16mpg hwy/city with my 4x4 taco. 22re or v6

 

The tacoma has a 2.7L 4x4. You think that's not any better?

 

he just said his previous 22RE got 16mpg. What people dont take into consideration is a smaller motor must typically turn higher revs longer to make the power/get up to speed. While a larger motor will typically consume more all around, it doesnt require as much goosing it to make it scoot.

Our 4.7L 4WD 4runner gets a crappy 15MPG mixed driving with a very light throttle foot. They say 16/19, but its really 15 average.

In my opinion, if gas mileage is a factor try to find something like a ford ranger. They are cheaper to insure, cheaper to purchase, and actually get decent mileage with both the 4cyl and V6.

 

I'd buy the mazda instead

same price, same truck, not a ford :P
