I bought a low miles, well maintained, one owner 2013 Tacoma last year. The late 2nd generation Tacomas are the high point of the model imo. There is an issue of frame rust in areas of snow and salt, but this was a New Mexico truck.

Congrats....these things run forever. You should be good for a long time.

And not Im sure if you know this...but you could tell Toyota had a huge amount of confidence in the Tacoma’s back then based off the warrantees they offered.

For example, when I was looking to buy the vehicle in 2012, I was also looking at the Tundra.

The Tacoma came with a 12 YEAR powertrain warrantee on it...(they called it lifetime, but I found out later it was 12 years).

The Tundra only came with a five year powertrain that same year.

Toyota basically new the Tacomas were virtually indestructible back then.
