These days, it’s almost a guarantee that a clean Toyota pickup will net a solid price. But things have leveled out a bit, and you can at least pick and choose exactly what you want as it relates to the overpriced pickup of your dreams. From king cab to single cab, short bed to long bed, four cylinder to six cylinder, you have your choice these days as everyone with a decent truck to sell seems to be bringing it to market right now. This 1994 Toyota pickup is a single cab, short bed model equipped with the 3.0L V6 and five-speed manual gearbox, and has just under 27,000 original miles. Find it here on eBay with bidding to $15,200 and the reserve unmet.

I love this era of Toyota pickups, as they still came with these very rad side decals, and these look to be in excellent condition. It rides on standard factory wheels but the seller has upgraded to oversized 31 inch tires and they look terrific – not too big, but a definite improvement. Chrome bumpers are in excellent condition, and certainly indicative of a truck that hasn’t racked up all that many miles. The storage box in the bed suggests a life on a job site, but it doesn’t seem to be the case given the exceptional cosmetics. Interestingly, this Toyota was purchased new by a doctor in Maui before relocating to Louisiana and finally to Montana.

The interior looks even better than expected, as even with just under 30,000 miles, that’s plenty of time for the cabin to start showing signs of wear and tear. Not here, as the bench seat looks brand new, along with the door panels and switchgear. Amazingly, despite being sold new in Hawaii, there is no air conditioning, which could be a turn-off to buyers expecting at least some basic level of comfort. Still, I also like it because that’s one less thing to fail down the road, and makes this Toyota even more bulletproof than it already was. The carpets are covered by rubber floor mats, and the bed was likewise covered by a bedliner that reveals a spotless bed underneath.

The V6 likely hasn’t needed a whole lot of attention given the low mileage, but the seller does report the timing belt has been changed and that he has replaced the muffler. Otherwise, there’s nothing significant to report on the service side of things, and given there’s no major rust to report, the frame likely won’t need to be replaced any time soon. The world of Toyota trucks isn’t unlike the Porsche universe, where models of a certain vintage have appreciated to such a degree, they will likely never lose value. There is some stabilizing happening, but 90s Toyotas are still top of the heap when it comes to used import pickups that can be used as a daily driver and a workhorse.
