Used trucks for sale in Oakland, CA under $2,000

I had my 96 until I was T-Boned at a stop light while visiting Spokane. The air bags actually deployed in spite of the vehicle being over 24 years old. I was amazed and it probably saved me from broken bones or a skull fracture. I was sad to see this vehicle go because it was totaled and there is nothing out there that even compares to the great years of service. The model I had included a 3.3L v6 and Posi traction drivetrain with the full towing package. I hauled heavy items across the cascades several times without an issue.

I contacted Frieling Auto Sales through e-mail about a 2008 truck that I was very interested in buying, I received a response back with 24 hours. Wayne was very nice an helpful through the whole process, he kept in touch with me about updates. An he was very patient & understanding of my financial situation. When it was finally time to sign the papers & pick up the vehicle, they had all the fluids checked plus topped off if needed, & the vehicle cleaned up before I got there. All in all I had a great experience with the dealership especially myself being a first time buyer. I have even already started referring a few of my friends to Frieling Auto Sales, knowing they will be just as satisfied with them as I was. Thank you Wayne for helping me find the perfect vehicle for me an my children.

I bought a 98 f150 lariat and had 62k miles when I bout it, now I have 183000 and only thing ever went wrong was 1 axle seal, 2 batteries, 1 alternator....best vehicle ever...very dependable

Quite accommodating, salesmen was easy to deal with and very understanding. Would recommend Ethen to anyone else that is currently looking to purchase a vehicle!

The 'purple" one pictured is not a flareside, didn't anyone else notice this? Ours is a great little shortbed 4WD, had it since 2006 (we are the 2nd owner), will hate to see it go when that time comes.

Good honest sales! They were prompt and honest to boot!

Love the third door Keeps the grandkids from getting out on driver's side into street when curb side parking seating for 6 we all can get out curb side

Great ,service was excellent I would recommend this Macke motors

This truck is, by far, the second hestvtruck I've owned. The first being a 2002 GMC Sierra. It looks good, rides like a "Cadillac", good gas mileage, work horse, although all it has to do is carry me around as my daily driver. I've done nothing but put tires on it, and wipers, oil changes religiously, and that's it so far.

Everything went very smoothly. The sales staff and financial staff were easy to work with. I left feeling I got a good deal.

Just purshased from a neighbor. Only 51000 miles. Needs headliner and a paint job but other than that what a deal!! I had to buy it! Never pass up a good deal. I’m gonna paint it, fix the headliner and put a bed liner on it. I could probably sell it but I’m won’t. You can alway use a truck.

Gerald Asbill was my salesman and he was very professional right to the point and I highly recommend him for your next vehicle experience they were awesome!!

This truck is a 4x4 1500 w 18 inch rims mud tires upgrade the radio to gps system it's a good truck drive it to work and home move some family members ..old reliable

Chris Ruddick was very helpful in finding me a new vehicle. He was very patient and accommodating. I would highly recommend Chris Ruddick he is a hard worker.

We drove this truck for seven years and never had to make any major repairs. The bed was as solid in the 7th year as it was on the first day! The 5.0 Liter V-8 is a true work horse that never failed. Plenty of power, great handling, solid in every way! The duel gas tanks were a real plus!

Awesum, I.m the second owner, mom bought new and I got it when she passed from cancer. It has 20,000 orig. miles. I get 21mpg as long as I stay under 60mph. My only complaint is the placement of the fuel selenoid. It went quit working one time, i made sure the motor was cold because the selenoid filled with fuel and when you pull it apart the gas runs onto the motor/manifold.

Update to earlier reviews Dustin did get hold of me and made the situation right. He was very nice about it. The Jeep renegade's air box needed replaced within 300 miles of owning the car. they made it right by me Cars.com can you remove my two previous reviews

This is a great all around truck for your money and for the salt Air that comes from the ocean. .lovemyliftedchevy for the rest of my time here on earth!!!!

I was looking for a car for my daughter and didn't want to spend a lot, but wanted her to be in something to keep her and the kids safe. Jerry and the crew found me something nice and affordable.

Bought 99 xlt 4x4 in 2015. I live in Iowa. I do a lot of hunting and wood hauling. So I use the 4x4 a lot. I pull a 5x8x3 trailer when wood cutting and load the truck and trailer down heavy. She grunts a little but enough power there to get it done. Only been stuck in the snow once due to clearance and have tested it's yanking power pulling bigger vehicles out that were in there pretty good. It's supposed me. I've replaced minimal parts. Gas tank was the biggest chore. Standard rust out. Biggest engine problem to diagnose was the fuel filter. Engine knocks like a diesel engine but has plenty of power and keeps on ticking. Change oil every 5k or close to it. Plenty of cab room and leg room. Maintenance has been minimal I guess. Would buy another if the deal was right. Current mileage 186kish. It's due for some bigger maintenance now. Front end parts kit brakes rotors all around and rear seals. Not bad for a truck that's seen a lot more gravel roads than hiways. Rust is average. Rocker panels and starting on the front of box. It's been a good truck.

My 2003 Ford f150 XL standard cab, just passed its 100,000 mile mark. Never have I had a vehicle that has never given me any - I repeat - never, trouble. I've performed the necessary maintenance tasks ; oil,tires radiator flushes, brake and tranny fluid replaces and any other needs that come from wear & tear. I love this truck ! I have replaced my wife' s car three x's. Mine is still road worthy and passes emissions every year ! Whether long distances or around town, my truck has not failed me yet. From one spark plugs to air filters, bulbs and tires I know that I have saved a lot of money rather than buy another vehicle. They' re ( MFG'S ) not building them like this any more. Kudos Dearborn. Well done UAW l

My experience has been awesome so far! They got me into a very nice car, for an awesome price, in less than 2 hrs, and Monique literally saved my life, lol! I would recommend this place to any and every one! Amazing prices, reliable, decent vehicles, and alot to choose from too! They will take care of you, I can promise you that!

I purchased a new XL, I-4, ext cab, 6ft bed in 2006 for $13k. In 12 years I put 60k miles on it. There was no issues requiring parts or maintenance in that time. I sold it in 2018 for $7k, an extremely good value.

Fantastic experience. Luis did a fantastic job showing me the car I was interested In. If your looking for a hassle-free honest locally owned dealership this is for you. I was able to get my new car at a good price and it runs like a dream. My prior car needed some work due to the door being dented In. They offered me a really fair trade-in price. I didn't feel like they were trying to upsell me and they felt like honest friends to me. I will be continuing to use Jon and son's auto sales for future cars.

The truck is a rust magnet and every truck made at same time that i see has exact same spots rusted my running boards are completely gone and i live ford trucks and vehicles only brand I’ve owned my 1990 ranger had zero rust on it and was older so if buy 99 to 03 f150 check for rusty frame

I bought a used totally loaded 2012 Audi A8L from Derek Motorcar Co. Bob is an honest salesman. I talked to Bob over the phone and he described the car to a tee. They were very professional. Bob gave me a great deal which was better than private party deal based on kbb.com. I highly recommend them and I know where I will be looking next time I need a vehicle. It did take a little over a month to get my title but I still had enough time on my temporary tag. Thank you Derek Motorcar Co.! Merry Christmas to myself!

I think it had some problems at the start but we are getting them fixed and I love driving it. Very nice guy selling the truck and very friendly.

Helping my parents buy a car. Johnny helped us find exactly what we needed. He took his time, listened to our needs, and was not pushy. Great service. Very happy!!

This is a great truck! love the look and ride. Dependable. Not bad on gas for a 4X4. The color is very nice. I dont see many blue ones.

This is a great medium size truck.It has great pickup,handling great and good style.Iam somewhat dismayed as to why this vehicle has not been Remade as I would have a new one today.Mine is the 5 cy. Amazing.

I have a 2005 dakota that I purchased new. I love it. 18 years of owning it. I have had very few issues. I use for hauling and recently I have been using it for highway driving. It just works. It's nothing fancy in fact it's kind of utilitarian. But I does everything I need it to do. I do maintain it well. but I have only had minor issues. The fuel mileage is not great but it's a truck.

Truck needs rear main seal, oil pan seal, oil sending unit, all new gas lines and gas pump and left wheel bearing. Total 3600.00 bucks. It drives very nice with a rebuilt engine and new brake lines. Thing is when it gets this old with 220,000 miles all the seals go bad eventually. 5.3 vortec is amazing. Not sure how reliable the tranny is. Rust is prevalent for it’s in Minnesota Country. But not terrible with no rust trough. I’m getting this truck for free. So putting $$ into it to fix.

I've purchased a number of cars from George at East Coast Auto Source over the years. I would recommend the following if you're looking at buying a salvage/repairable vehicle: 1) Choose your Auto Body mechanic FIRST prior to going to purchase a vehicle that is salvage/repairable and pay him for his time even if you DON"T BUY. Paying him $100.00 for his time might save you thousands of dollars in the long run. Take him with you to look at the vehicle you are interest in. A mechanic can identify hidden damage and cost that you as a buyer can not identify. 2) Get an estimate on parts from George (or any other salvage yard) as this is added cost to what you are actually paying for the vehicle. 3) Get a time frame on repairs from your mechanic: example: is his shop out 3 months on repairs? six months on repairs? 4) Add the cost of the vehicle, parts, repairs and time to fix and compare this amount of money and time to the same model vehicle that a dealership or private owner has for sale and analyze if the repair of the salvage vehicle is worth it....sometimes it is: sometimes it's not. I've never had any trouble getting titles, bill of sale, or vehicles shipped upon purchase, etc from George. As indicated, have some knowledge of salvage repairable vehicles and get estimates up front and your repair experience will be much better.

Nice size truck for use on my farm. Putting a plow on it so it can be used to plow my driveway. Body is a nice style.
