    i am in a predicament ya'll..... my tacoma has 175,000 miles on it and is in need of some work including my 2500 dollar suspension upgrade. is it worth spending the money to fix the issues or use it as trade in before it gets to bad and buy something newer. i do use my truck for trail driving and mudding but it is mostly my daily driver give me your opinions guys thank you

    stock, for now
    it comes to a point where it to much money to dump into it to keep it running. Your spending hundreds of dollars every weekend in upgrading parts. Thats right about where I was with my 96 before it got totaled.
