126k They ware prematurely from off highway use (chunking). plus I have driven x-country 3 years in a row, all over Canuckistan, more trips to philly from DC than I can count, and every where in between. Now Ole red just sits there looking sad that its never driven anymore.

 

I'm pushing for 300k before being completely retired. Shit everything has been replaced minus the engine and trans.

 

Thats not bad at all for 7 years old. Only a little above average. Your lucky to have a DD now. I can't wait to get one. In less then a year I'll be paid off on the Taco. Then I think Ill swoop in and buy my moms Nissan. It's an 05' with something like 30k on it. 4 banger here I come. She wants to buys a Merc

 

I think you can make it double that! I may be selling mine in the next 2 years to my "little brother." He has wanted my truck for the past 4 years and now is 15.

 

Shouldn't be a problem. Wifeys 4Runner is nearing 250K with no signs of slowing down. Course, you might just be a little tougher on 'ol red than she is on the 4Runner...

 

Indeed! 60k of those 126 were from work use, and I would say 30 of them were in Washington, DC. The city sure does beat on the vehicle!

 

Yea what I should have said was retired for dedicated trail use.

 

Philly is killing mine. I think I have less then 200 miles on this tank due to Center City driving. My rear brakes were completely toasted at 70k when everyone else it getting 90k+. Luckily I don't typically stop at stop signs, but these red light cams are starting to piss me off

 

Still young chado

 

Makes sense. In 2 years when he is ready to buy it, the re modeled 2015 should be out and I may take a long look at a double cab of those, or a tundra. The sales manager that tried to get me to trade in my truck today said they were supposed to change body styles this year if it weren't for the move to the new factory in Texas.

 

I have yet to do anything to the drums...buuuuuuuuuuut lookie lookie what showed today. Drums, shoes, rotors, pads, calipers, and new Crown lines for the front and rear.

 

From where did you get the brake parts?

 

After a call back and a chat with a new insurance claims advisor, she eluded to a loop hole that they might cover the damages to my truck

Might being key word, when I take it in for the police report, if the cop decides its vandolism, they'll fix it, if he writes it up as a collision, then nope.

 

some asshat ran into his xrunner while it was parked at his apt. bldg. - messed up the front end pretty well.

 

I'm refering to the few week ago incident.

 

Is this the damage that happened when you were driving too fast?
