Hi all and thanks for your time.
I'm in the USA (CA) and am looking for a low mileage clean title 200-series.
I've narrowed my search down to 2019-2021 model years due to all the updates (radiator, 8 speed transmission, transmission software, TSS)
Build will daily driveable with CA desert, mountains, and snow mixed in. Suspension (control arms), some Kings, keeping KDSS, tires no bigger than a 34", lockers, nothing crazy. Going for an OEM+ theme.
My question to you all is what would you start with? For what I want out of this project should I spend the premium and get a Heritage Edition? Or save the $20k , get a non HE, and pour it into mods? I would rather have a 2 row truck without a coolbox, but it's not a deal breaker.
Would you wince at a truck with 60k miles vs one with 30k miles?
Also should I be looking for Toyota Gold Certified CPO? I know these trucks are "reliable" but 100k powertrain warranty seems pretty good!
For reference, the HE's i've looked at are all still in the $80k range, while the non HE's are deep in $60k territory.
Thanks for your help and I hope to post some pics soon!
