    I had 300k(ish) on my 86 4Runner 22RTE when it finally blew (cracked the block). Current Taco (04 4x4) has like 140k on it. I don't drive it a ton, since it's not a DD anymore.

    Well, personally, my 98 regular cab 4x4, w59 has 523000 and my 99 ext cab 4x4 has 250000. Regular maint and upkeep will keep them going great. I have no mods on either one... love them trucks. Lol

    Hey guys. I'm looking at a 05 Tundra regular cab work truck with the 4.0 and 6 speed manual. What can I expect from an engine with 177k miles and has some minor dents and ugly wheels. Truck is being offered for $4k

    Y'all are killing me. I'm at almost 200K and I have zero signs of anything major. I do all of the work as needed. Lately new AC compressor and idler pulley. I plan on 400K. Zero rust so I may just do a new engine if she pukes. Maybe...

    Have you guys seen the million mile Tundra ? Google it. Guy took it in for oil change, it just flipped to all zeros.

    After 9 years and 1,020,130 miles, Victor Sheppard is reluctantly passing along his ’07 Toyota Tundra to the only buyer who could wrestle the truck from him: Toyota. If Toyota didn’t come calling for the truck, this rather inconspicuous-looking (considering the mileage) pickup would still be on the road.
    “I could put another 20,000 miles on it right now,” Victor said. “I love that truck.”

    Yes, we HAVE seen this. If not because of the fact that it's 2 years old, but your several duplicate posts in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd (any others I've missed) sub-forums.

    I see you have 31 posts. Only 19 to go...

    I am at 298,000k right now. I recently started getting rough shaky idle at start up for a few seconds. Pink coolant dripping from cat very slowly. Getting p300 code for random misfiring. I took her into local shop.
    They found coolant pooled up in one of the cylinders. 4 of the cylinders had perfect compression at 150lbs. Other two cylinders had low compression at 90lbs and 120lbs. Rather than just going with a new head, I will probably swap out for a JDM engine. If anyone has a suggestion let me know.
