OoooooopS! ...last night I could not calculate properly! damn those decimals and extra zeros! Good thing I am not a banker....anyway I have edited the following with what I THINK is correct math!!Sorry!!
Cheferson....If you can take your time and keep looking. I got mine at 130,000 miles. It now has 145,000 and doesnt/hasnt needed a thing other than tires, gas and oil changes...HONEST. I have had plenty of vehicles with less miles that I wouldnt drive more than 45 minutes from home in. But I would drive this truck across the country and not worry one bit. Look at it this way if you bought a new $30,000 truck with a $500 a month payment driving 20,000 a year it would cost you 30 cents a mile just to OWN (never mind insurance gas etc.) And lets say you owned it for 5 years and got 100,000 miles on it. Still with me? Now you could buy a tacoma with 100,000 miles knowing it will last another 100,000 for $10,000(no loan) and at the same rate of driving it would cost you only 10 cents to own per mile (again not including gas etc.) so at a rate of 20 cents difference per mile X 100,000 miles thats a savings of $20,000!!! which I am sure you could deal with if the used vehicle needed any repairs along the way!
