For Sale: 1989 Toyota Pickup in Lavergne, Tennessee

This 1989 Toyota Pickup SR5 is the quintessential rugged 4x4 truck of the era. So to have it looking sleek without taking away from the ready-to-work attitude makes for an appealing package.

There's just something special that happens when a Toyota pickup of this era comes into view. We just know these have a reputation for lasing longer than stones. And this one gets some added attention with its beefy lines highlighted in a glossy black. The paint was an upgraded respray later in life, and when they were investing in the look, they also added a cool custom airbrushed graphic to the tailgate. While that gives it a cool presentation, you'll also appreciate that its heart is all about being a useful pickup. The tall 4x4 stance, proper trailer hitch, and liner paint in the bed are all part of a package that makes this classic Toyota quite a practical machine.

The interior is all about a feature-filled experience. You have cruise control, power locks, provisions for power windows, and an upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo with USB input for your phone. There are plenty of ways to get nice breezes thanks to a pop-out sunroof and the sliding rear glass. And the R134a air conditioning keeps the cab cool in all the configurations. These Toyotas are also great for the way the interior was built to engage the driver. The fold-down armrest gives your seat a bucket-like comfort; the steering wheel is mounted on a tilt column; and you get a proper gauge package that includes a large speedo and tach.

The 3.0-liter motor is desirable piece to have. It means you have the largest motor from the era, and it has the added advantage of factory fuel injection. This one is also believed to be original to the truck. You'll even spot some nice pieces, like a newer timing belt, newer alternator, and an upgraded air intake. The lifted stance, meaty tires, and two-speed 4x4 transfer case make for a nice go-anywhere Toyota. And the power steering and power brakes w/discs up front are nice for in-town, too. Plus, you'll enjoy that added control of the five-speed manual transmission no matter if you're running up a trail or using the overdrive on the highway.

Complete with maintenance records, this is exactly what comes to mind when you think of a robust Toyota pickup. So don't let this loaded and versatile 4x4 slip away, call today!
