    My two Rangers were awesome, drove both over 200k miles with no issues. Both were 4x4 and did quite a bit of off-roading in them. My third and final ranger was a 2011 4x4 and I have had all types of issues. The nail in the coffin was dropping a valve in the #5 cylinder while I was drive 70mph on the freeway. I took it to a couple of different places to have it looked at and they say it needs a longblock motor replacement. It only had 82k miles on it.

    So I started searching for a new truck, I ride dirt bikes and wanted a full size bed. I called Toyota internet sales and told them I wanted a sand color 2016 taco with a access cab and trd offroad package. They called me back and said I could pick it up in the morning at a dealer 20 miles from my house.

    So here it is.......... http://i.imgur.com/QcgP57k.jpg

    Only 50 miles on it so far but love it!

    Congrats on getting a new Tacoma. I'm pretty sure you won't regret it.

    I seen someone on this site with over 600K on a 06 so it shows how reliable Toyotas are.
