Mule

New to the Toyota nation. Came across the forum whle reasearching the T100 I recently purchased. 97 T100 SR5 Extra Cab, real clean, V6 auto, 2WD with 120K, Ca vehicle so no rust and Carfax shows no accident history. I am concerned though that the oil pressure shows very low at idle. It moves up to the the first mark when the RPM comes up from idle. No low oil pressure light and i already completed an oil change, the oil out of the vehcile looked new. What is normal should i be concerned.
