It doesn't seem to be in too bad a shape. It has a topper on it. We have not yet been inclined to put a roof rack on the topper, we are thinking of setting up a fork-mount situation in the bed. Maybe some fork mount attachments on a 2x6 plank or plywood.
What could I get for a 95.5 Tacoma SR5 - really, one of the first ones? I bought in in April 1995. It's in pretty good shape for a 15-year-old pickup truck. DH drives it about eight miles round trip to work every day. I'll have to go check the mileage on it, but I don't think it's over 100,000K yet.

He put a fork-mount on the rim of the bed right behind the driver's seat, but that's the only thing we've added to it.

Tacomas are so ubiquitous here, I don't think I'd get much more than $2,000 for it if I put it up on Craigslist.
