I bought a '9? Toyota Tacoma used with 100,000+ miles for $6500. Used it hard, hauled lots of firewood, coal, I pulled stumps with it, it worked for a living. It owed me nothing, I got my $6500 out of it. It always was up to the task. But there was that rusty frame issue, and Toyota bought it back for $9800.

Worst? Merkur XR4ti, mine had an automatic, and I bought it with a bad engine. The gas in the tank and oil in the crankcase made the bulk of the value of that machine when it ran, and I still did the engine swap. A 50 mile round trip made me nervous.
