1999 Toyota Tacoma Prerunner V6 for sale in CA

1999 Toyota Tacoma PreRunner V6 — Natural White exterior, Gray interior, ready for many more miles of reliable service. This iconic Tacoma combines Toyota’s legendary durability with a comfortable, practical interior and the extra get-up-and-go of the 3.4L V6. If you’re looking for a truck that’s as at home on daily commutes as it is handling weekend projects and light adventures, this PreRunner is a standout.

Powertrain and performance
At the heart of this Tacoma is Toyota’s 3.4L V6 (rated at 190 horsepower and 220 ft-lbs of torque). This engine offers strong mid-range torque and responsive power delivery, making passing and merging effortless and giving you the low-end grunt useful for towing small trailers or hauling heavier loads in the bed. The PreRunner setup retains the efficient rear-wheel-drive layout but features the taller, rugged suspension and styling of the 4x4 models — giving you a confident ride height and composed on-road handling while keeping mechanical complexity and operating costs lower than a full four-wheel-drive truck.

Fuel economy is pragmatic for a late-90s V6 truck: expect about 17 MPG in the city and 21 MPG on the highway, a workable compromise between performance and efficiency for a vehicle of this vintage. This particular Tacoma has below 227,000 miles on the odometer and averages less than 9,000 miles per year, indicating steady, moderate use and careful ownership.

Exterior and styling
The exterior is finished in Natural White, a timeless color that presents cleanly and is easy to maintain. The PreRunner styling gives the Tacoma a purposeful, athletic stance — raised suspension, wider wheel arches, and bold bumpers that hint at off-road capability without the complexity of a 4x4 drivetrain. Factory alloy wheels (or durable steel wheels, depending on original spec) complement the look, and the bed is sized for practical hauling of gear, supplies, or weekend projects. Exterior trim and brightwork on this example remain in excellent overall condition, with crisp paint and good alignment of panels, reflecting the care it’s received.

Interior comfort and convenience
The cabin is upholstered in Gray, a forgiving and practical color that resists showing wear. Toyota designed these interiors for durability and function: comfortable, supportive seats with cloth upholstery that stand up to repeated use, a straightforward dash layout where every control is within easy reach, and large, clear gauges that make monitoring speed and engine parameters simple. The front seating typically features either a split bench or bucket configuration with a center console for storage and convenience. The PreRunner’s interior is geared toward usability — generous storage cubbies, a glove box, cupholders, and a thoughtfully placed shift lever and parking brake.
