Talking 99% sure Im buying an 03 D cab TRD tomorrow!

Im going first thing in the morning to look at a 2003 Tacoma TRD D cab, its silver loaded with just under 72k on the clock! Anything I need to look at or look for? It has a clean carfax, non highway miles, not smoked in etc. It is an automatic which I have mixed feelings on, I like being ablt to just drop it into D and go but at the same time I like being able to keep it in a gear... But for the deal Im getting I think she is coming with me! Oh, it has new BFG AT TKO's too

Double Cabs only came automatic. its relatively easy to swap a 5 speed in them though!

First Im going to give it a full once over, tune up, fluid flush, belts etc. After that Ill probably start with a fresh set of Bilstein HD’s all the way around, Im not sure whats on it now though, I could find a nice surprise under it once I get there in the AM! Im parting ways with my beloved 88 ext. cab and this will be its replacement so Ill probably do some of the same mods that I did to it… Intake or ISR mod, exhaust possible Tundra brakes nothing too excessive, it will be a 50% daily driver for me and my fiancé. I know the entire audio system is going to get replaced ASAP and Ill get a bed liner sprayed in…. Im just happy to have found one with lower miles in my price range! I almost bought a 2004 ext. cab base model 4cyl 5 speed but it had been smoked in and the dealership wouldn’t come up with a carfax so I pulled one with my phone, turned out it had been in a crash back in Oct. 2010 and had to be towed! Glad I didn’t buy it because an hour later I found this one and it has 20k less miles! I don’t care for the stock wheels and don’t like BF Goodrich tires so they are both on the long term to do list but all in time, Ive had the 88 since 1996 so the 03 will be a new project… Now I have to sell the Rav4 and the 88, time to get on Autotrader!!!!!
