Looking into a quality used pickup truck. Must be 2 door and short bed. Small like the 80's Toyota pickups (Hilux, Tacoma etc.). Would like a 4x4 and manual. 4 cylinder also. Old school Toyota's I like also (SR5, 22R, 22RE), but tough to find. Anyone have insight what make and models are good from the 80's - 90's or early 2000's? Want to spend around 5k-7k
Good luck on your selection. Sounds like you're making a smart, economical decision.
Where I live I see lots of Mexicans driving these 50k to 70k massive Ford or Dodge trucks that are about 6'5" high. I run the numbers
on this to compare monthly payment, insurance costs and Mexican income data in the United States.... and the numbers don't match up.
And I did not mention the cost of these shiny rims that throw on them. Whatever the case may be, it's ten times smarter than driving a motorcycle.

85 Yota with a 22re if it was me. I've almost bought one several times,eventually I will,but finding one unmolested and not turned into a mud machine is getting rarer and rarer. Good luck...The 22r's are the best 4 cylinder engines ever made imo.
Little older than I'd like,but this one is tempting,and just posted this morning. Better keep myself busy today,lol...

Another reason why I think your decision is a smart buy is b/c soon all cars will be under government control in the same way that your bank
account is under government control. They can simply turn it off with a switch. This is one of the negatives of technology. They can turn your
car off while you're driving down the freeway or run you into a tree.
The truck you wish to buy won't be allowed on the roads in the future as it provides freedom. Come to think of it, mechanics and mechanic shops may
be government organizations in the future just as the government has edged it's way into healthcare and requiring you to buy it. They'll control the vehicles and the industry of repairing of the vehicles.
