1997 Toyota Tacoma Extended Cab 2dr Extended Cab 4WD SB
Very happy with this truck
 Ive had my Tacoma for nearly 5 years 
and plan on driving it another 5.  
After 117K miles, the only problem was 
w/ the air conditioning - a difficult-
to-diagnose leak costing $380 at the 
dealer.  Other than that, I've changed 
tires as needed, the engine oil every 4-
5K, and trans/diff every 15K.  New 
plugs, air/fuel filters, EGR Valve - 
routine self-performed minor tune-up. 
I've done a bit of 4WD (6X/year) - 
Handles solid in snow and trail.  The 
check engine light I used to get? - 
hasn't done it once since I turned the 
gascap at least 3 clicks after fillup.  
I strongly recommend it and will likely 
buy a newer one - probably around 2008
