Toyota Pickup: The Undying Workhorse
Here’s a 1985 Toyota Pickup with 315,000 miles—which means it’s just about broken in. The legendary 22R engine under the hood refuses to die, and the seller claims it “runs well,” which is Toyota-speak for “will still start after the sun explodes.” Body-wise, it’s surprisingly intact for a truck this old, aside from a bit of rust at the bed seam and tailgate. But let’s be honest, if you’re looking at this thing, you’re not here for aesthetics—you want something that will outlive your grandkids.
Buy Rating: A fair price if you’re after an indestructible work truck. Comparable 1985 Toyota Pickups in similar condition sell for $2,500–$4,000, while pristine ones go for over $10K. This one is listed at $3,500, sitting right in the middle of Toyota Tax territory.
