New guy with a T100

arent many forums for these so figured id hang out here since the engines the same, just bought the truck last week.

Heres the 99 mazda b2500 i had for almost 3 years that its replacing, i loved that truck but needed more power and tow capacity, i had to replace the leaf springs twice from putting shit too heavy in the back, and it wasnt the greatest tow rig either lol, thats my dads 59 cj5 hooked up to it


and the new rig, 120k miles on her








had to add the system


have already added tint and clear bumper lenses (the 84-89's fit, im told they dont make clear corners for these though), window visors are in the mail.

more pics soon, havent even gotten a chance to wash it yet, been busy at work ... gotta get on the timing belt and water pump too!

 

Welcome to TW. At 120k she's just barely broken in. I've got the 3rz-fe and it's at 221k, runs great.

 

yea it took me forever to find one with lower miles, everything else had over 200k on it ... i decided either a t100 or a silverado, glad i went with the toyota so far

i wanted a tacoma when i bought the previous mazda but at the time they were way out of my price range.

 

had to get a couple right before the mazdas new owner picked her up, ill miss that truck

 

Looks really clean !

 

Sharp! Welcome!

 

yeah 120k is nothin. I actually just saw a T100 for sale a couple weeks back with 431,000 miles

edit: actually here it is

thanks for the comments, as for 458k doesnt suprise me, i found a lot for sale in the high 200k range.

 

Nice my dad has one he's at 240k running good

 

Thats a good lookn T op. I love mine and at 255k and running great, I sometimes wonder if it'll outlast the taco. U should be able to find some good technique guides on net about changing your belt. I did mine several years ago and it was a fun project. Good luck!

 

yea ive read a few of the how to's but im still too chicken to tackle it myself, a buddy of mine says hell help, so thats coming up this week or next

too many projects haha .... need to start working on my quad too it died last week for no reason

 

Dang man that aint too bad, buy that and a V6 to go in it and you would be golden. I would buy that for a trail rig.

 

haha thats the same color as the 95 i tried to get .... square ass friends werent down for a road trip to san diego that weekend.

 

loving this truck!!! first tank of gas i got 21 mpg with mostly in town driving! thats better than the 4cyl mazda did ... now to see how she does all freeway

 

Welcome and nice T100!

 

thanks so much .... loving tacoma world!!! Found out theres 2 other members near me and ones a mechanic!!! Buddy flaked on doing my tbelt and the TW member stepped up! best message board ever!
