The 1999 comes with a folder with 60 records. Last month the owner did the following work:My opinion get the 2006 for the ATRAC and 5 speed transmission.
Assuming it has a good service history.
Downside is I think 2006 may be harder to put an aftermarket stereo in.
The 1999 comes with a folder with 60 records. Last month the owner did the following work:
timing belt replaced
Radiator replaced
Cylinder head gasket replaced
New rear brake pads and rotors
...all at dealer
2006 maintenance history is thin / on third owner. Belt and pump replaced ....new tires.
85k miles. Receipt says cylinder head....Oof head gasket? That seems strange. And 85k miles? What the hell? Did you mean 185k?
Or was it the valve cover gasket?
I'm no expert but I'd be wary of an LX with a head gasket replacement especially at 85k miles. Maybe the heater tees popped and he overheated it?85k miles. Receipt says cylinder head....
Ohhhh yeah man that's the valve cover gasket. That's all good. Common issue. Alot of folks on here had success just re tightening the boltsDescription: GASKET, CYLINDER HEAD COVER - REPLACE ~|~GASKET, CYLINDER HEAD COVER - REPLACE ~|~BOTH SIDE VALVE COVER GASKET LEAKING OIL ~|~88859 V.C GASKETS LEAKING OIL 600 REMOVED AND REPLACED BOTH SIDE VALVE COVER GASKETS, REPLACED SPARK PLUG TUBE SEALS, RESEAL HALF MOONS PER CUSTOMER APPROVED.

The water pump and belt have been done on the 2006. Asking $24k. I can get the 1999 for about $18.5.Also replaced the oil pan gasket.
I mean, if it was me and I had the budget I'd go for the 2006 for that 5 speed and ATRAC. Plus I think you get some extra safety features like side air bags and stability control.The water pump and belt have been done on the 2006. Asking $24k. I can get the 1999 for about $18.5.

I have a 1999 and thoroughly enjoy it so thats cool too. Although I missed having atrac alot. So much that I added an auto-locker. Are you going to off road it at all?
Yes. I live in southern Utah near the staircase and spend a lot of time back country.
The 1999 has the rear locker. The owner of the 2006 just turned down my request for the vin.....

Its an lx. Center lock button. Looks like the rear on my taco. Need to pay attention to where the “x” is.So the 1999 must be an LC and not an LX? And the locker changes everything haha. Well sorta.
Kina lame he won't let you check the VIN service records.
