    Do you really have rear disc brakes, or is that a typo?

    44K a year? That's a lot of recreational miles! Good on ya.

    Pretty damn cool. I wonder if Toyota is interested in hearing about it?

    Some "fun" with the truck over the last year or so.

    Perhaps I need a snorkel for snow?

    does turning tires to black wall out count? How bout added snug top rebel.
    Gnyla, you're an inspiration to us all! I'm catching up, 90,000 miles in three years, all New Mexico roads more or less.
    Can the boys get it to 500,000?

    It was truly impressive to see the truck perform so well in the maze district, it was not kind terrain. I have spent quite a bit of time under this truck and nothing was leaking! That never happens with the straight 6 in Jeeps.

    That is Awesome and love the write up on this. You have definitely gotten your monies worth with this vehicle. You obviously put this truck to the test and ask it to perform for you so giving all that the many repairs you have done and maintenence done have kept it going this long. I am sure that it will keep going for much longer. Most people do not demand this much from their vehicles as you have. Makes me want one of these Trucks even more now. I love the pics and the places that you have taken it showing what this truck can do and still perform like that. Here's to hoping for another 100,000 miles more to hit that half million mark:cheers:. I am sure that the people at Toyota would love to hear your story. Still looks nice too. Great write up again. :woot:

    Thanks DoorDing, I have omitted the fact that I bought a used drivers seat on car-part.com and installed it at about 379k. Whoops. I will update the OP. I even thought about that as I wrote the OP but it is not there.

    Very Nice Truck. I like white on vehicles but this is sharp. I hope to find a decent one.

    Did you hear the chirping sound that is commonly associated with the 6speed ? Here is the sound that I am talking about: https://youtu.be/fPr-r-FxlvY
