Help with purchase decision

I've owned Toyota trucks for the past 16 years. My current truck is 2016 SR5 with 207K on it. I'm looking at trading it in. Found this 2025 SR5 with TRD Off-road and the Toyota TRD factory 3" lift. It's got 75 miles on it and it's been bought and traded in. This is the service report.

What do you think?

So looks like they replaced the rear diff after 75 miles.

 

What do you think?

 

How much are they asking?

 

$51K

TRD Off Road pkg, SR5 Conv PKG, BSB mirror, Heated SW, spray in BL, TRD add on 3" lift

 

See if they would CPO it and I don't think that's a bad deal personally?

 

Seems like a good deal. Trading a vehicle in after only 75 miles is interesting. Keep the 2016 if able.

 

Doesn’t seem like a terrible deal if you’re okay with no leather/heated/power seats and the small display.

 

I wonder if you could find out who the previous owner was and ask them. It could have been a buy back, lemon lawed or a 7 day money back guarantee thing with buyers remorse…….but certainly the service history would have me a little nervous if the reason was that they couldn’t figure out a problem that occurred in the first 75 miles!!!!

 

Unless your looking for a special kind of project I would look away and go else wear.
Just my .02

 

I owned a 22 Tundra for about a year before trading in for my 2016. The 3rd gen. powertrain is excellent, ride quality and headlights are way better, and all the technology is great. But I had to deal with a number of squeaks/rattles I couldn't get rid of and had my 8" infotainment system replaced due to electrical issues.

If you can get a full or extended warranty on this truck it might not be a bad deal, but I would expect to find more problems during your first year of ownership, which means time with it in the shop.

 

I end up buying another truck. A 2025 Limited with TRD Off Road package, the 3" lift. Thanks for the help guys

 

That a boy, glad to hear this
I honestly didn't think it would of ended well if you pulled the trigger on the other one.
