Purchase New In June 1995 - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I'm new here, but am an old T100 owner. I bought my Tropical Blue 1995 T100SR5 Extra Cab new in June 1995. It is in near perfect shape, has only 87,000 miles, but has seen service pulling a 5,000 lb. boat in addition to hundreds of hauling duties. I still get compliments about the beautiful blue color. Toyota really got that color right. I'm getting ready to add a Thule 422XT rack for hauling kayaks.
This has been one fantastic truck. Only two things have broken in 15 years, the plastic gear for the power antenna and the CD player. This truck has never even had the front end aligned. It still drives and handles like new and doesn't shake or rattle. We will never part.

That's awesome! Glad to hear you've gotten such stellar service from your truck, and you've gotten your money's worth from it too. What a great investment.

You know, it wasn't a cheap truck, $22k in 1995..but I got great made-in-Japan quality and it's just the right size.

Welcome to the forums

Sounds like your truck has treated you well over the years so far. Should easily last you another 87,000 miles

I hope you enjoy it here
