    My 04 PreRunner is about to hit 150,000, and its running like new, no knocks, no clicks, no hesitation to do whatever I need it to. I've only had her since 143k but the previous owner had a maint book and receipts so I know it was well cared for and I plan to drive it until it quits for good.

    At 400k it gets a party

    DD off road rig. As far as I know most is original, some upgraded CV axles, shocks, and clutch. besides that runs great! I spent 11 dollars besides maintenance to keep it running last year, had to replace the front main seal.

    Tacoma is stock and staying that way, Pickup is TBA as of now.
    I'd get so cramped up in a regular cab on a trip like that lol. My first gen only has 87,222 miles on her as of now so I am good to go another 300k at least! I don't worry at all about racking up miles on this thing. I'd drive it across the country in a heartbeat if I had the money.

    My 95&1/5, at 500,000.(drove around in my subdivision a little to get the odometer right on the mark).
    I did change the engine and clutch at 489,000 since its in such good shape. As a forestry consultant I drive a lot both highway and in the woods daily. I am particular about caring for all my vehicles, always have been. Garaged at night, I think that's key in keeping anything in good condition, and regular oil changes (3,000 miles or so) and timing belt and water pump every 100,000). I am in remote locations regularly so my transportation has to be dependable. Around 498,000, lost the rear end fluid but didmake . It did scar the rear end so I put a new one in, and put new rear axle bearings in since we had the axles out

    I've seen one with 600k on it before. It's amazing how long these little tanks go. The guy that had it would probably still be driving it, but some asshole totaled him out. Here's the vid of him hitting 600k.

    I've just hit 276.3k, unfortunately I also hit a guard rail of a bridge. So I'm working on fixing that, which isn't cheap. But I just feel so much shame when another Tacoma drives by and sees my poor truck. I really want to get 600 out of this thing. I love it. I want to do some nice mods eventually too.

    I also noticed a slight occasional knocking sound which I think might be my differential. And a not-terribly-loud squeak at very low speeds.

    Honestly...yeah, I'd take that for $1200! (Especially since it's a rust-free Texas truck.)
