WTS 2005 Corolla $8,500.00 Jewett, Texas

I recently bought a new truck and this is my late wife's car. I just had a new compressor put in & the A/C blows cold. New rear brake pads. The mileage is just over 10,500. Never wrecked or flooded. The body is good other then the paint on the hood, roof and trunk. The sunscreen on the rear window is bubbled up.The tires are a year old. The interior could use a cleaning as the wife smoked. It's had the regular maintenance down on time. I have thought about getting it detailed but don't feel like sitting around waiting on it.

It's a fun to driver car, almost go-kart like. Getting in & out is hard on my gad back. I really don't need 2 vehicles with the new truck. Letting it go is just part of getting over her death. Not interested in trades even for guns

Wow, super low mileage. Only 5k per year

My 2001 Nissan Frontier had about the same. The wife's farthest drive was from Houston to Teague where here parents lived. She basically used it to run errands around home. No big road trips in it.

It's a Toyota they make great vehicles. I don't know miles to a gallon, but it goes farther then the new truck, ad it gets 24 while in Eco mode. Now that the A//C is working I actually have been driving it over the new truck. My lazy ass would rather get in it right outside the front door then walk out to the big garage and deal with opening the door with new door opener.

Just to be clear, mileage is 100,500?
If it’s 10,500, I’m interested.
Either way, Toyotas last forever!
So sorry for your loss.

If it's 100,500 then the motor's almost broken in and it should be running even better than new. It's a Toyota. My old Lexus (Toyota with a different badge) had almost 350,000 miles on it before any problems started.

I can attest to them being bulletproof.
My son had an older one many years ago that was a standard shift 5 speed. Kid did not know how to drive it unless it was at redline between shifts. One afternoon he pulls it in the shop and says it is running like shit. We pop hood start checking and find nothing obvious. On a whim I pull the dipstick. Dry. One quart. Two quarts. Three quarts got it on the stick. Put four quarts in it and it was just shy of the full line. At this point I could not say anything because I knew anything he said was gonna result in him being in the engine compartment when I slammed the hood I was so pissed. Car ran fine after that and for several more year's.
In my opinion Toyota is about as reliable as it gets. I have an 08 Tundra with 378,000 miles. Other than regular maintenance a master cylinder and an alternator are the only things I have done to it.
