    All kinds 3 inch body lift/2 1/2 suspension lift. 31/11 1/2/15 tires All work done by myself for years. The only work performed by mechanic was fuel pumps. I also have a 90 Mustang 350 hp and I can never understand how come my Tacoma gets more respect Just got a 99 Jeep TJ that I rebuilt, and painted in the garage
    Agreed, but you put five thousand in and if you crash you only get three grand. I got a rebuilt auto tranny in mine for almost three grand at 245K' Always worried about the head at this point especially coming on here and hearing disaster stories, but these guys dont maintain like I have

    Yeah there's pros and cons, I have WAY more into mine then what id get out of it, unless I parted it out. Bought it with 223k and I've put a lot of time into it. I've owned a new Tacoma, it was nice until the warranty ran out, then it was a pain. But I did put 180k miles on it in 5 years so it was fairly good to me.
