I have had a toyota pickup in some capacity since I was 16. They are the perfect hunting truck. I am driving an '09 Gen 2 now and I'm creeping up on 300k miles.

Drove it from NC to Vermont, Michigan, Wisconsin, Texas, Kansas, South Florida 3 times, and soon will drive it to Canada. I am probably forgetting a couple trips.

She's been a good one. I'd kill for it to be the 6' bed version though

Got a 94 no rust front end I just replaced everything from CV axles, pitman arm, idler, tie rod assembly on both side, shocks etc. Not a Tacoma but still a great truck.

Right at 350,000 on it and still going strong

Went from a F250 crew cab 4x4 to my Tacoma.
If we ever get another RV I will get a bigger truck but will probably keep this Tacoma until it falls apart

That's interesting. Mine is a 99 and it's got 360k

Had that exact truck but a ‘92 back in the mid 90’s. The 3.0 motor was pretty puny but the manual transmission helped. I had 33” tires under it didn’t help either.

I have owned one, loved it. Yet at 80K miles the rack and pinion went, then the front main. So, even though I liked it a lot, I went to the Nissan Frontier. that one was a 4WD. put 165K miles on it and in the past month I sold it and got a new 2WD Nissan Frontier.

The Toyotas have had an issue with the rack and pinion for many years and they have never resolved the issue.

pretty sure this new one will outlast me since I am retired and dont trap or hunt anymore.

I've shown this one before. It's a 2000 model with the 3.4 v6 engine and 5sp manual transmission. This picture was taken shortly before I gave it away this year. It had 726,000+ miles on it. The only engine work done was changing valve cover gaskets twice. The rack and pinion only had to be replaced once, and that was at around 400,000 miles. The man who owns it now really takes good care of it. He had a new windshield put in, a new rear bumper and tires. He loves the thing.

Before this one, I had a 95 Tacoma with the same motor and transmission. It had 529,000+ miles on it when I sold it.

Tacomas have served me well, but now I'm driving Tundras. My 2010 has 332,000+ miles on it and is my trapping truck. My 2016 only has 130,000 on it, and it's my road truck.[Linked Image]

Got an '04 w 228K on it to go w/ my V-6 '23 new one... got the 2.4l... frame is getting a little rough and likes oxygen sensors every once in a while. I got it 6+ years ago for $4,900 and it's still going strong.

I bought a new Tacoma a few years ago and it was just too small for my liking. Traded for a Tundra and wish I would have done it sooner.

Good Lawd, didn’t realize that many folks on here owned one!
Savell, I was told the same thing about those tires. Even though you can look them up online, they aren’t available.
Some really good looking trucks too! Hoping this last my lifetime. I don’t have many trips planned and have only put about 2500 miles on since I got it.
