We bought a beat-up Toyota T100 for just $400 on Facebook Marketplace—and the seller told us not to trust it beyond the end of the street. So naturally, we put it to the ultimate test: driving it 60 miles of highway, through rough terrain, and up one of Colorado’s steepest, sketchiest mountain passes.

This truck was neglected, ugly, and full of issues—but somehow, it powered through like a champ. From wiring chaos and blown tires to off-road cliffhanger climbs, this is one wild journey in the cheapest Toyota off-roader we’ve ever owned.

👉 Can a $400 truck survive one of Colorado’s gnarliest trails? Let’s find out.
