Buying a used 2022... Thoughts?

Yeppers. Haven't even seen one in the wild as of yet. Hope the truck looks as good in person as it does online.

 

Saw ‘23 SR5, lunar rock today, it’s listed as having the fuel line recall but not the engine on the carfax. 24k miles, $41k, one owner. Seems like a pretty good price. Is there an easy way to tell for sure what size fuel tank it has?

 

On

a SR5 it will need a TRD or Premium package to have a 32 gallon tank. If you have the VIN you should be able to look up the package

 

The window sticker says it has the trd off road package, but doesn’t list that has the bigger fuel tank.

I do not believe that has the 32 gallon tank. It will list it out on the options.

 

Do you keep the trucks more than 3-5 years? Take the risk and enjoy the savings.

Want it for 10-20. I'm not as clear on that, I probably wouldn't. Could be bulletproof after the new engine and the smaller recalls. Could be new issues we haven't seen yet from the new engines. I can't predict the future yet, and no one I know can either.

 

Yeah I’m thinking to continue looking for a 2.5 with low miles and in good shape that will last a long time hopefully with minimal issues.

 

It needs the convenience package not the premium....

Doesn't matter if it's the off-road package or not either....Not sure if it changed for the 2023 year model but my 2022 I had to get the TRD convenience package for the larger gas tank not the Premium package.

 

Yep you were right, here is my sticker…..

 

Man, I'm in the same boat. Was about to make a thread but saw this one. Almost pulled a trigger on 22 Pro. Made a deposit but backed out.
Reason why I backed out cuz I don't keep my cars for too long and might be hard to sell it later.
Looking into 2023 late models.

2018 SR5 Crewmax 4x4, Magnetic Gray, extremely low miles (12,200) - mint condition. Many upgrades. This may be the "one" for you. I sent you a private message. Let me know...

 

@mtb_frk, what did you end up doing?

 

Nothing yet. Just been trying not spend any money due to all the uncertainty.

I did just get an updated quote email for my current truck from carvana telling me it went up $3200. I went through the local ford dealer while I had it in for some work today, and the used car lot was looking mighty sparse.

 

I am pretty sure not all 2022 non-hybrid were/are subject to a recall:

I just bought a 2022 non-hybrid and per CarFax and the dealer the engine was never replaced AND my car is not on the Toyota or NHTSA list.

This article seems to confirm it too:

Mine has only 28k miles on it, is in mint condition, TRD Sport Premium with black softex seats and loaded with options and 14" screen and 35 gallon fuel tank. Toyota Gold Certified Used, paid $38.8k. I am pretty happy with it.

 

Cool. Gold Cert gets you 12 months 12,000 miles basic bumper to bumper warranty like a new car plus extended powertrain. Sounds like a solid buy.

 

Yes, and I added 5 years extended warranty from Toyota to that for $1,500...they dropped the price after I said no initially.

 

I would and get the toyota warranty.
