Description

You ever think life is passing you by, that all the opportunity of the yesteryear is long past. "Should have been born in the 50's." "Should have bought property in the 70's." "Should have invested in the 90's". Well fret not my friends, I come bearing a once in a lifetime opportunity. For a limited time only, you can buy the best truck, of any time, ever produced anywhere in the world! A 2001 Toyota, Tacoma Pre-runner.And let me tell you, she is a beaut! 3.4 liters of perfectly acceptable power. A humble 2 wheel drive warrior, with a little something special sprinkled on top, that little something is called a "rear diff-locker." Amazing right?!Black as a stallion, with a little pepper in her hair. Yeah, she may be a little long in the tooth with about ~400K miles, but don't let that worry you. Its a mark of courage. It’s the battle scar called reliability.There's only been one owner, in her long and storied history. Rumor has it that the owner never drove over 65 and loved the highway. He would often get heckled by his passengers telling him to drive faster, to which he would calmly reply with a swift "fuck off. It's my car and I'll drive however I damn well please! And I swear, if I hear one more word about your 'Medical Emergency' I'll pull this car over and you can walk!"Is it true the aforementioned owner is suffering a massive depressive fit? Yes, yes it is. It was brought on at the thought of having to part with his best friend "Truck". The sweet and gentle tacoma that has never once failed him, and is always ready and willing to heed the call of the mountains and rivers or the petulant whining of landlords telling him to get the hell out. Is his world robbed of color, and food of taste at the knowledge that he'll never again be able to hear the calming rumble of her V6 engine. Also true. But, sadly, were living through the final chapters of late stage capitalism, and we can't afford the luxury of sentimentality. Times are tough, and bills need to be paid. Tears be damned.So come friends, climbers and dirtbags. Come misfits and wanderers, surfers and gardeners. Adventure's is calling and its telling you to buy the truck and get ready to party. Tell your friends in Alaska that you'll be right over you just have to swing by Patagonia first. Don't let her age fool you, she's got many more years left in her, and more than few stories left to tell.P.S. If you mistreat, or do her dirty, the previous owner will lay a curse on you and your line for a thousand generations! Also, cash only.Peace
