    Hey everyone, i just bought my first yota and she's got 203k miles on her. I've done the basic tuneup and with a few more things to do that i know of. Any suggestions on making her last another 200k? And how the hell do I get that dash rattle to go away? (pics on way soon)

    Hey congrats on the new Tacoma. It's nice to see a fellow Houston member. I would change all of the fluids if they haven't been done recently. What part of Houston are you?

    Sorry bout the late response. I'm at the corner of 242 and 45 north... I see so many taco's drivin around lately. I got my first thumbs up from a fellow owner the other day. I can't believe i've had her for a year already. I recently got the timing belt done, and just dropped a new battery in. I should probably change my diff. fluid... What part of town are you in?

    Welcome to TW! For the dash rattle mine turned out to be between the dash and front windshield so I shoved a paper towel in there and it got rid of it. Hope this helps!
