THERE IS A HOUSEHOLD OUTLET IN THE BED OF THIS TACOMA
It is Saturday, it is barely light out, and you are parked at the end of a forest service road with the tailgate down and coffee going cold on it. You plug the compressor straight into the bed. One hundred twenty volts, four hundred watts, deck mounted from the factory. No inverter clamped to a battery, no cord running through a window. Air the tires back up, pack it in, drive home.
That outlet is the kind of option nobody puts on their shopping list and everybody uses.
This is a 2023 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road, double cab, four wheel drive, 3.5 liter V6 with the six speed automatic and a 3.91 rear axle, Celestial Silver Metallic over Cement cloth, showing 39,667 miles.
It carries the TRD Off-Road Package and the Technology Package, and the equipment list reflects both. The JBL Premium Audio system with Dynamic Navigation. Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross Traffic Alert. Rear Parking Assist Sonar, which you will appreciate the first time you back a double cab into a campsite between two trees. Active Cruise Control for the long empty stretch of 395. Automatic high beam headlights and a rear camera. Safety Connect emergency communication.
The TRD Off-Road appearance is all factory, not a parts catalog build: black overfenders, the mesh front grille, LED headlights with black bezel LED fog lights, LED daytime running lights, and a color keyed rear bumper. It rolls on sixteen inch machined contrast alloy wheels, which is exactly the size you want on a truck you intend to put real all terrain tires on. Smaller wheel, taller sidewall, cheaper to replace, better off pavement. Toyota got that right and a lot of manufacturers do not.
Inside, dual zone automatic climate control, a power driver seat, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a leather shift knob, an auto dimming rearview mirror and an overhead console. Toyota's own all weather floor liner and door sill protector set is already in it, which is a couple hundred dollars you do not have to spend on day one.
The report is clean: no accidents or damage, no structural damage, no airbag deployment, no total loss, and no odometer problems, with CARFAX guaranteeing the title free of salvage, junk, rebuilt, fire, flood, hail and lemon brands. Rated GREAT RELIABILITY and last owned right here in Washington.
Here is the honest part about value. Tacomas depreciate slower than almost anything else we put on this lot, which is wonderful if you own one and frustrating if you are shopping for one. That is the trade. What you get for it is a truck that will still be worth real money when you are done with it, in the trim people actually ask for by name.
Come look it over at Archibald's, 6902 W Clearwater Ave in Kennewick. Call 509-737-1199 and we will have it out front with the tailgate down.
A negotiable documentary service fee of $200.00 may apply to each purchase.
