2002 Toyota Tacoma SR5 TRD – 3.4L V6 – 4x4 – Extended Cab – Automatic – 305k Miles – OEM+ Maintained & Overland Ready
______________________________________________________SALE PENDING_______________________________________________________________
This white SR5 Extended Cab has been mechanically restored, tastefully upgraded, and adventure-proven (2024 trip from New Mexico to Banff/Calgary, Canada and back), with no leaks and no oil burning.
It’s wearing trail-earned dents and scratches like a badge of honor, but under the skin it’s a well-sorted, turn-key rig ready to drive cross-country or deep into the backcountry tomorrow.

Upgrades (OEM+ & Overland-Ready):
Why This Tacoma Stands Out:
This isn’t a worn-out work truck or a hacked-together project — it’s a well-loved, mechanically sorted, OEM+ first-gen Tacoma with over $14,000 invested in reliability and functional upgrades. Ready for overlanding, camping, hunting, or just being your daily driver.
Toyota fans know… finding one with this regular maintenance, no leaks, these upgrades, roof tent, and a clean title is tough to find.

Ready for its next adventure — whether that’s a Baja trip, a mountain pass, or your daily commute. Will you be the one to take it to 500,000 miles?
