Hey Heidi!

I don't think a stock PW will have any problems :sombrero:

Once I get some sliders fabbed, I'll give it a go. DeSoto Mine too!

Added to the items recently replaced - the rack and pinion was replaced last year with a Toyota factory reman, and the front brake pads are new, rotors were turned, and a caliper was replaced after it failed.

Hey Mark! Sorry to see you are letting go of that Taco, that is honestly a great truck for anyone interested, I have seen it in person.

The PWs are way cool also... I have a friend who has one for towing and wheeling. Front and Rear lockers with an electronic disconnecting sway bar and some crazy low gears goes a long ways. Hope to see you out sometime again, maybe with the PW. Good luck!

I would rather buy the truck in the back ground of this picture, oh wait I already own that one. Good luck with the sale Mark, the power wagons have always held my interests as well. I have seen this truck in person a few times and its in as great as shape as Mark has described it.

As of this morning the Taco has been retired and desticker'd! We picked up our Catus Red 2009 Power Wagon!

Sooooooo, the Taco needs to go to a good home where it will be used properly!

more photos!

All stickers have been removed. The photos show the GPS and Attenna mounting, the rear suspension setup of Deavers and Bilstien shocks with extended bumpstops. The rear tire shows the remaining tread. The truck is parked in my personal flex checking area. The truck will go thru this in 2x4 with no problem. Great flex keeps the tires in contact with the ground.

To answer a few questions:

I consistently get 16 to 17 MPG in town, 18 to 20 on the Hwy. I carried about 500 Lbs of gear - without it, it should do better. The Yakima rack substantially decreases mileage.

I purchased the truck in June of 2005 from a dealer in Chandler, AZ. He had sold it to the original owner, and had taken it in trade on a new Taco. When I bought it, it had just turned 60000.

The truck has the TRD rear locker, no front locker. I've broken too many parts on other trucks that had MUCH bigger axles and R&P to have a locker on 7.5" ring gear. The truck goes pretty well without one, the exception being deep snow. There is 12+ inches of clearance under the front skid, but when the snow gets to deep it acts like a ramp and I loose traction.

The dent at the cab/bed is a high lift dent, the d'side slider hit hard enough to dent the door sill - the door fit was not effected. The Yaesu FT-7800 detachable face plate is mounted above the CB, the Lowrance 3500C is behind the shifter under it's cover. The Blue Orbital battery runs the winch and other accessories, the winch controller is directly below it. The Yellow Orbital is the starting battery. The SurePower Isolator is mounted above the starting battery. The sway bar and shovel are in the bed, the bag behind the seat contains extra belts and hoses, the box is the spare alternator, and the spare CV is also back there. The 25' 5/16 dia winch line extension is also in the back.
