2nd Gen, high mileage and issues.

Lots of threads asking about 'How many miles on your Taco'

Lets hear from you guys who have:

-High miles (how many)

-Issues and how they were resolved

-How have you driven it? (Just a daily driver?... beat the snot out of it offroad? etc.)

-Your opinion about the durability of your 2nd gen Taco

I'm perfectly happy with my baby, but there is so much complaining going on in so many threads....

 

138k, no major work, daily driver, opinions mean nothing, actual data is everything! i am as happy as can be w/ my truck!

 

142,000+ miles. No problems whatsoever. Just oil changes and tune ups. Best truck ever.

 

ttt

 

106k miles
Daily driver, took her off road a few times, nothing hardcore. I think my power steering pump went out while doing doughnuts.

- Timing chain cover oil leak (not fixing, costs too much)
- Rear leafs of course. (2" AAL fixed that)
- SR5 airbag light (clock spring is broke, fix when I can)
- Power steering pump (ez fix)

 

Just bought my 07 DC 4x4 two months ago with 98000 local highway miles with local dealer verifying all service and maintenance had been performed. Hit 100k on my way to work this morning and couldn't be happier. 50 mile round trip daily driver and gettin 21.5mpgs. Running Mobil1 and planning on switching to synthetic tranny, diff and transfer case lubes as well. Keeping my fingers crossed.

 

264,000 haven't even had to put gas in it yet

 

what's gas?

 

Idk about a DIY, but the dealer quoted me $1450 to repair my timing chain cover leak.

 

i have an 06 with 103xxx miles and im hearing the same things on here. my timing chain cover is leaking, clockspring for airbag is out, rear suspension sucks, power steering pump leaking and messed up, and the flimsy ass metal sucks, but other than that they are great. Haha today the lady at toyota of tampa bay told me my airbag could go off at anytime because my clockspring is bad. is that even true?
