    Found a model you don't see very often with unusually low miles. It's pretty rare around here to find a unit with 4x4 that doesn't have the TRD package. Also, I don't see many 05's in access cab configuration. I actually thought they did away with the access cabs and went to only double cabs in 2005. Clearly I was wrong.

    What do you guys think about the price for this one with only 57k miles?

    Edit: I did not see the salvage title part initially.

    Completely missed the title. What's wrong with 05? 14.3 what?

    $14,300 for an 05 with a salvage title is what’s wrong.

    Too much for a salvage title in my opinion.

    I agree. I completely missed the fact that it was a salvage title. It's remarkably clean though.

    There is an 05’ Limited 4x4 in my area with a nice shell on the back. 121k miles for $15k. No Lien. Private sale.

    Plenty of pics. The shocks look original. Looks clean body and some surface rust on chassis. Everything else looks tired. No pics of cross member.

    Based on what I know everyone has done to their trucks on this forum and what I have done to my truck it probably needs about $5 reinvested back into it. $20k total no way!

    Not many 1st Genr’s Tundras on the Cregsliss in a long time.

    SR5 with color matching grille. My guess is front end crash.

    I just purchased a 2005 Double Cab Limited with 84k and a salvage title. My insurance company told me that normally you’ll get 1/2 the value if the car is totaled in the future. I used that information As a bargaining tool. I also purchased the autocheck report and saw exactly what the accident was.

    Having just spent a month shopping in this market.... they are asking about 5k more than what a clean title would be worth. Then factor the salvage title.... The value is somewhere in the 5-7k range.

    Also, a truck with that few miles has sat A LOT of its life. My truck sat indoors in a storage facility for about 8 years and there are lots of little switches that don’t always want to work because it hasn’t been used enough and they’ve frozen or corroded.

    All that said. I’d pass on this one based on the price. If he’d cut the price in half, it may be worth considering.

    Look good for the year, BUT what is the salvaged title from? Insurance companies can be so strange on issuing a salvaged title, I'm not sure how it just has 57 thousand miles on it as well, that reminds me of the phrase either use it or lose it if it's it's that long I'm sure their stuff mechanically and electrically wrong I believe I would pass on it as well.

    Way too much $ for a salvage titled 05. Even with the low mileage.

    1) Bought with 225k miles on it, a Westin bullnose bumper, and OEM tundra steps 2) Current Mileage 238k Mods: 1) Dirty Deeds BA Mufflers 8 inch with resonator (as of Feb 2021) - Had the 10 inch with resonator - Prefer the 10 inch without resonator - deeper sound hear it more in the cab 2.) Ranch Hand Summit Front Bumper/Guard 3) Ranch Hand Summit Bumper 4) Billstein 5100s all around 5) TRD front and rear sway bars 6.) Rough Country wheel to wheel steps 7) Pioneer 8400 NEX Wireless ApplePlay 8) Backup Camera: e-raptor 9) LED white lights replaced in headlights, fog lights, inside cabin, and exterior lights 10) Linex (unbranded by Central Texas Truck Coatings) 11) OEM Toyota side panels and generic panel on tailgate Maintenance/Repairs: 1) Valve covers, belt tensioner, alternator belt - $415 2) Evaporation fuel canister and filter replacment $1547 *This was a Toyota TSB for 07-08 AFAIK. Toyota covered in first 3 years of ownership. Mine failed after 13 years of daily regular driving use. Not bad at all. 3) Pioneer Unit - had to ship to Pioneer to replace Output IC - $45 (shipping) free under 1 year warranty fix 4) Pioneer Unit - Electrical feed back coming through speakers when accelerating. Fix was to check all wiring/tighten up/ make connections good again $42. 5.) Rear passenger door actuator replaced. Part was $287 with tax on ebay from Toyota dealer free shipping. 6.) Rack and Pinion, tow mirrors, shocks install, lifetime alignment - $1884.36
    I would get it inspected by a mechanic, but if you're budget is that high, I'd look for a 2nd gen tundra. Test drove a few each around $12k
