    Hey guys and gals!
    Im new to tundras.com, but posted a little on tacomaworld. Dont have a tundra yet but we are expecting in january and as much as i love it, my little tacoma access cab isnt going to cut it unfortunately :(. I have my heart set on a tundra and i found a 2013 trd off road with only a little over 13k miles... no not a typo! Extremely low miles. Its a good 5 hr drive from where i currently am so i had them send some pics of the underside and theres a little bit of rust.. only seems to be the exhaust system though so i wanted to get you guys' input on how big of deal it seems to be. I like doing my own mods (i installed my entire suspension system on my taco) so if i going to have to drill out rusted bolts and fasteners i may have to pass. Thanks in advance for all your knowledgeable input!

    Attached are some pics!

    That looks super clean as far as the frame goes.

    Id wanna take a look at the bed and where it counts to the frame, too...especially if there is a drop-in liner.

    Looks good to me also, obviously not a rust belt vehicle. Grab it if the price is right.

    Ended up buying the pickup! For mods im planning to keep it simple and understated (aka boring ). Thinking 3rd gen trd off road wheels, slightly larger tires, and a topper for now. I had a 6112 and ome leafs with scs f5s on my taco and i liked it but i really dont do as much offroading as i thought i would so im saving the cash.

    Also if you guys know of anyone in the market for an '05 Tacona with only 60k miles thats in the Southeast let me know!

    What you asking for it? Any accidents? Flood damage? Stories? Does it need any work? Clean title? Manual or auto? Motor? Nice truck!

    Thank you!
    1. Would like to see $17k at least
    2. No accidents
    3. No flood damage.
    4. No stories
    5. Took it through the car wash and snapped the antenna :angrygirl: thats the only thing. Recent oil change and alignment.
    6. Yes, clean title
    7. Automatic
    8. 4.0

    Comes with enough oil for another oil change along with filter, the OME overload leafs that i removed, all stock suspension components that were replaced, and the stock steelies and tires.

    Thanks for the questions, let me know if you have any others.
