Summary
Overall this 2022 Tacoma TRD Off-Road presents well for mileage and shows no evidence of prior collision damage or frame repair. The primary concerns are cosmetic (rear bumper scuff, two paint chips on hood) and one mechanical item worth pricing before purchase: the front brake pads are near minimum thickness and should be budgeted for replacement within 2–3k miles.
Exterior
Paint: Lunar Rock, consistent across all panels — no overspray, no mismatched panels indicating body work. Body panels: panel gaps within factory spec throughout. No dents. Rear tailgate bumper has a 3" scuff from contact — cosmetic, no sheet-metal damage. Glass: windshield has one small chip above the passenger wiper (not in driver's sight line). Replacement or resin fill under $100. Lights: all functional (headlights, fogs, tails, reverse, brake, turn, parking, hazards). No moisture in housings. Tires: Toyo Open Country A/T III, all four match, DOT date 2823 (July 2023). Tread 6/32" fronts, 7/32" rears. Even wear, no cupping or feathering.
Interior
Seats: cloth, minor wear bolster driver seat consistent with mileage. No tears, no odors. Dash/electronics: no warning lights, infotainment responds, all buttons functional. Backup camera clear. BSM & LDA enabled and working on road test. Climate: both heat and A/C reach target temps within 90 seconds. Rear vents functional. Smells: clean — no smoke, no mildew, no pets. Carpet: no staining. Driver floor mat shows typical wear for 48k miles.
Engine & Mechanical
3.5L V6 2GR-FKS — cold-start clean, no rattle, no blue/black exhaust on startup or warm. Oil condition: amber, at full on dipstick. Oil change sticker indicates service 3,100 miles ago at Toyota dealer. Belts & hoses: serpentine belt shows no glaze or cracks. All coolant and vacuum hoses tight, no seepage. Leaks: no active leaks visible from above or below. Valve cover gaskets dry. Rear main dry. Battery: OEM Toyota, load-tests at 610 CCA (rated 650). Within spec but budget replacement within 12 months.
Undercarriage & Frame
Frame: straight, no bends, cuts, or welds. Factory e-coat intact throughout. Rust / corrosion: surface rust on rear axle housing typical for California truck. No structural rust. Exhaust: OEM cat-back, no leaks, all hangers intact. Suspension: shocks hold a bounce test, no fluid weep. Upper/lower ball joints tight, no play. CV boots: all four intact, no grease slinging. Brakes: fronts at 3/32" pad thickness (minimum is 2/32"). Budget $320–400 for pads + rotors turn, within 2,500 miles. Rears at 6/32" with plenty of life.
Road Test
Braking: straight stop from 45 mph, no pulling, no pulse in pedal, slight brake dust smell (pads near minimum — see undercarriage). Steering: centered, no pulling, no shake at any speed 0–70 mph. Shifting: 6-speed auto shifts crisply through 1-6. No flare, no harsh engagement in cold. Cruise: engages and holds speed. Adaptive cruise distance modulates correctly in traffic. Accel / decel noises: none abnormal. No driveline clunk, no wheel-bearing whine at highway speed.
OBD-II Diagnostic Codes
No stored DTCs. No pending DTCs. No readiness monitors incomplete.
Additional Diagnostic Notes
TPMS reading: FL 35 / FR 35 / RL 36 / RR 36 (placard 30F/35R — slightly over on fronts, benign). Battery: 610 CCA (650 rated) — see engine notes. No active codes; no history of codes in last 20 drive cycles (Techstream scan).
