    Before my taco, I had a 94 sentra, it was a freebie, beat it till I junked it.

    Had a 98 S-10 extended cab with sport suspension before that.
    I couldnt get rid of it quick enough, I sold it with 100k on it, after 3 starters, a tranny, 2 driveshafts and the clearcoat cracked to shit.

    A two wheel drive truck that is lowered 2 inches, had a 5 u-joint, 2 CV joint driveshaft with a center bearing. The rear CV joint started vibrating at 60k, GM wouldnt sell parts, just the whole shaft for $1100, till I wrote the CEO of GM. Man, $400 for a starter, then when it failed again, the dealer I brought it to would not replace it under warranty. I had to find another Chevy Dealer that was a Goodwrench Service Plus dealership, not just one that had not taken the sign down yet. Assholes.

    When I worked at a parts store we had 5 taco's, some with 200k+ on them.
    I had to get another, gonna hit 150k on it soon enough, just regular mx.

    Had to post a pic or two of my Jeep. I have owned three Cherokees and one Wrangler. This was my first XJ, 1992 4.0I6, AW4 auto trans, with the NP242 T-Case. Only a Dana 35 rear end but damn this thing would go anywhere. I abused the crap out of this thing and it just took it. I really really miss this Jeep.

    Many reasons why I didn't keep the Tundy but I think the most pressing was because the gas prices and it was pretty expensive to maintain even if I worked on it myself.
