    Hello Tundra Enthusiasts,
    I am seriously considering buying a 2012 Rock Warrior, and I want to hear all your opinions. It is a one owner with 200k miles. I got it checked out by a trusty mechanic who said the frame has been replaced, new brakes, new tires (anemic 265/70/17 Goodyear Wranglers, but I could live with that), and new alternator. Carfax shows regular maintenance at Toyota dealerships. This has the best looking rockers I've seen. The one thing that makes me reconsider is the price: 14,800 out the door. It's expensive for a 200k vehicle. Would I be getting hosed? It is a sharp looking truck.

    I never seen all white lettering on any rock warriors? Before I commented on this i googled it and also didn't see any without the red TRD. The price seems high for that kind of miles

    I just looked and same thing. On close inspection the decal did seem a little crude. Would the Rock Warrior show up on the carfax? It doesn't for this one.

    I'm sure there are ways to find out for sure, possibly the vin# on carfax or kbb but not certain. Surely some other members have some input. Can we get some interior photos? The wheels and front grill appear rock warrior--ish..

    What is the actual price of the Truck? Im guessing your OTD includes taxes, title, ect. KBB in my area shows about 12-14K value.

    I only have the dealer interior pictures, posting the link seems like it could be against the rules and also free advertising. Condition was fair.

    It is bit high. Checked KBB true value- private party- that truck shows $ range of 10k to 13k, with average of $11500. Trade in is between 8k and 10k- 9500 mean.

    I understand it is a retail dealer and price, but still appears high and that is a good chunk of miles for a $15000 truck. Of course used prices are at an all time high right now. I would pass on it, would either need a better price, lower mileage or both to consider it. I would rather spend a little more to get something maybe newer and a truck and lower mileage.

    Where are you located? Whether that price is any good depends a lot on where the truck is for sale.

    That’s the problem just so little inventory! But I bet if you walk away the deal will get better!

    Weren’t the RWs the only tundras with factory 17s? Door jamb should say LT285/70R17 for front and rear tires.

    $12k would make me think on it if it were immaculate with detailed service records. Hard pass at $15k with 200k miles though

    has RW wheels, rear bumper and front bumper so even if sticker the wrong color, it is a RW imo. a bit on the pricey side because dealer needs his markup most likely.
