    I'm a consultant (PCA) in the Ag industry here in the central valley near Bakersfield, Ca. I live in Glennville which is about 50 miles from my field office which is in Shafter, Ca. I check Almond and Pistachio orchards and make recommendations to the growers on what to treat their crops with and how. I also use my truck for personal use and I'm a musician so lot of weekend gigs and travel.

    Only serviced the transmission twice?
    So you're getting the Trans serviced roughly every 200,000 miles?

    That's a lot of miles between transmission services in comparison to others on here doing drain and fills every 30,000 miles.

    I bought my 08 4x4 V6 SR5 new in September of 07. 135,000 and still running great. No issues at all. Just regular maintenance.
    I plan on running her into the ground. 588,000 miles is awesome! Living in New England, I suspect mine will rot away before I get any where near to 500K!

    Right on! My '05 DCLB is still going great at 228,000 miles and I'm sure it will keep on running as long as I look after it and keep up with the maintenance and preventing rust. Great to hear about the high mileage Tacomas.

    Very impressive - my 2 year old taco has 25k mls on it...I only drive it 10k miles a year now and it's not a daily driver anymore and I use it for longer trips now. If I get only half the miles out of mine I will be a happy camper!

    Mine is lifted so I expect some more wear down the road
