1 Owner's comments: I love this truck. It is the only vehicle I have
ever bought new and at this rate it might be the only car I ever own. It has had
the heads done once (dealer recall) and had one clutch installed about a year
ago. Replaced distributor and AC compressor a little while ago, but aside from
that it has been normal maintenance. No major repairs of any kind. The speedo
cable broke almost a year ago and I have not had it replaced yet so consequently
the odometer stopped working and I am guessing about where I am mileagewise.
Should be pretty close to 510K based on my normal driving. An amazing car. I was
pleased to see the gentleman here with 800K on his Toyota truck. I thought I was
the only one. People ask me, "Are you STILL driving that truck?" and I tell
them, "When it breaks I'll get a new one!" So far, knock on Japanese
plastic...it starts every morning. Never let me down. Had to pull a guy out of
the snow while I was on vacation last year. That made me feel good. He had a new
Ford and he let out a good chuckle when I told him how many miles the truck had
on it.... |

Respondent's
original comments: Still original engine, transmission and clutch. Original
hoses too!!! I recently did my 100th oil change on this car. People
ask me if I use any special kind of oil, and I tell them that I do.
I only buy oil that comes with a rebate. It is a great car to
drive.... She runs like brand new. Respondent's
final comments: Car officially retired and scrapped due to head gasket problems.
This was the first (and last) mechanical problem in 23 years. It never left me
stranded. Thank you Toyota. |
