This is probably one of the cleanest, low mileage, 1994 Toyota 22re's on the market with a manual transmission. These trucks, in general, and engines are known for their reliabilty and longevity. This truck is unmolested, unmodified and adult owned - other than the CD player and tires/rims it is stock (Stock rims are included as pictured). Minor wear in paint and body is shown in pictures - clean AutoCheck can be e-mailed upon request if not available online via eBay. We purchased this truck earlier this year to use for "in-town" errands to avoid putting miles on our new vehicles. Since then we've replaced tires, rims, rear tail lights and had the interior carpet and seats professionally cleaned - it's ready for it's new owner! This truck starts, and runs like it did in 1994 and doesn't have any weird noises or issues as some higher mileage 22re's may have; there is NO loud valve ticking common in other 22re's- the truck runs great! We are only selling because we have 3 other vehicles and only 2 drivers - we don't need 4 vehicles. Bid with confidence, check my feedback - I've sold other vehicles and a motorcycle on eBay and have 100% feedback, I sell only quality items that at fair prices - this truck will be a GREAT buy for anyone - college student, grocery store runner, hardware store pickup mule, etc. NO RESERVE!!! Be the high bidder and take this reliable Toyota home! Question Not Listed Below : "Dear goodboy8cia, Where you live at ? I am in North Carolina . Dose the nice wheels go with the truck ? Thanks Rick - ric1986 Dear ric1986, We are in Southeast New Mexico and feel 100% confident you could drive the truck to NC and back with NO issues! :) Stock rims and tires, along with NEW rims and tires are included!!! :) Good questions, keep them coming - it's a great truck! - goodboy8cia" On Oct-05-13 at 21:11:09 PDT, seller added the following information: Additional questions, answers and "startup" video : Dear aml1311, Great question, I'm familiar with this "chain slap" on 22r-e motors. While it is a tall tell sign that those guides are broken, or damaged, it's not typically a major problem when the motors are not pushed beyond their means and the timing chains remain in tact - I believe Toyota used plastic guides, rather than metal, in order for the guides to wear out over time and signal to the owner/dealer that the timing chain should be replaced/checked. With the aforementioned in mind, I don't hear the chain slap and believe the previous owner spent close to $2,000 on maintenance that included the timing chain service - I do not have records of this though. :( Take a look at the start-up video - the engine is remarkably quite compared to other 22r-e's I've seen & heard and this leads me to believe that the timing service was done OR it's simply been well cared for and the guides lasted longer than normal. I'll let you be the judge on hearing the chain slap as I can't hear it as I have been able to on other 22r-e's. http://youtu.be/5kJqVhouFEI Thanks for the questions keep them coming! - goodboy8cia From: aml1311 To: goodboy8cia Subject: Vehicle condition: aml1311 sent a message about Toyota : Tacoma Short Bed 2WD #251351623293 Sent Date: Oct-05-13 18:27:58 PDT Dear goodboy8cia, Hello there, I have one question? The 22re engine had a problem with timing chain failures due to faulty plastic guides. So, do you know if the chain has been replaced, or is there a chain clang on a cold start. Thank you. - aml1311 Dear stanglm1, No problem, thanks for your interest and happy bidding! - goodboy8cia From: stanglm1 To: goodboy8cia Subject: Re: Other: stanglm1 sent a message about Toyota : Tacoma Short Bed 2WD #251351623293 Sent Date: Oct-05-13 20:48:46 PDT Dear goodboy8cia, thanks for the info about the air con, - stanglm1 On Oct-05-13 at 22:53:50 PDT, seller added the following information: Dear aml1311, Not a problem, I didn't hear it either and I agree.
