    My name is Rich & i'm a new member, but have relied on this sight for some common & not so common answers related to issues i've had on my 06 Taco!
    This site is great!

    I think my truck is great! 200k plus & I can count the repairs on 1 hand!
    I've read about several issues some of you guys have had & I must say knock wood I haven't had any of them.
    Especially the braking issue i've read, i must say since day 1 that the brakes have been 1 of the best features! This truck stops! & freakin stops fast!
    I've used this truck for the past 7.5 years as a work truck driving a min of 100 mi a day from long island to nyc & beyond & beat the crap out of it on the nyc roads,loading & overloading it & it never lets me down!
    This is my 4th toyota truck & between them i have over 700k without any real major repairs!
    Gotta love them toyota's!
    Glad to be a member.

    From your thread title I thought you hit the Lotto. Reliability is one of the factors that attracted me to the Taco, and it's good looks.

    Hey guys,
    Thank you for the welcome.

    I've just completed a few of the cheap/free mods, & I love them!
    I did the anytime fog lights, which I always wanted, the secondlary air cleaner, & the URD short shifter kit, which I should have did 6 years ago. lol

    I'm waiting for the part to do the illuminated 4wd drive switch, which I just don't get why it's not a stock item. But anyway thanks to all you guys who figu=re this stuff out & keep them coming!
