My Taco story

Lauren, the ODO got stuck at 89k, moved for a little while, intermittently but that was going on two years ago, I think theres about 300+k on it. I just go and have the oil changed at the beginning of every other month.

 

Wow, Ken, that's a stunning number of miles. You really DID get the money out of this one!

So, the next million dollar question is when you're replacing it. I'd guess "when it falls apart," but as much as it's taken so far, that could be ages.


Edit - nevermind, just saw your prior post on the newer truck . . .

 

Wow, you've beaten that thing like a red headed stepchild!

Glad to see it's still going and ready for more

 

holy sweet jesus!

initial thoughts were a first gen or prior, but fackk thats one beat up 2nd gen!!

hahahah did u ever bring it to the dealer like that?

 

Wow. Ive never seen that new of a truck beaten up so bad before. Thats what i call Toyota built tough.

 

Great story Ken! I'm glad to see a 2nd Gen go through what yours has and keep on ticking. My last Yota (88 4Runner) had around 250,000 miles when the odometer quit working. By the time I sold it at around 300,000 to 350,000 miles the engine still ran like new.

 

I had to get this one because of the size of what I tow, it is huge and not fun to drive its a 350 diesel and sits in the garage plugged in most of the time.

 

LOL get from in front of a DHL truck and yours wont ever look like mine.

 

and a little off roading.....

 

Is there anything on your truck that isn't fucked up? LOL

 

ummmmm, I cant think of anything off the top of my head. ROFLMAO! Somebody needs to double dog dare me to schedule a service appt at the Toyota dealership.

 

actually an amazing story man haha

my family has only owned toyotas and one BMW.
i will always be a toyota guy and this proves just how durable they truely are.

love it

and the toyota's make our BMW seem like crap.

 

If you do it, can you film it and then post the video?

The Ford is huge. That thing is all grille!

 

ill go in all dressed up in a suit and tie.

 

I dropped my tailgate the other day without cleaning off the ice that was frozen to my back bumper. Needless to say the ice left a small dent in my tailgate, which was my first self inflicted dent in my 2010. After seeing your truck I don't feel so bad about my first dent.

 

...just go out there hit the trails and have fun! life's too short to worry about a piece of steel.

 

i bed you could tow a 24 foot inclosed with a taco.....i have towed a 30 foot camper and a 20 foot car trailer (with car)

 

Taco will tow a loaded 24ft trailer no problem, but the fuel economy is horrible.

 

Damn it man! Good stuff!

 

ahh i see.... that makes since....

Still would have got a tundra (or a supercharger for your taco) but you know whatever you like man.....your tacoma gives myine survival inspiration because i wont be able to afford a car for years after i get out of college
