    Just noticed that you took that pic of the 350K rollover cruising at over 70MPH...NICE! Let's see the 400K at 100!

    51 oil changes at 350k shows you're taking care of this truck as we all should. This info is great! And congrats

    This is impressive. I have actually been thinking about how long I can get my engine to last, and I would have been happy to hit the 250,000 mark! I am currently at 100,000. Bought the truck at 58,000 and have no clue of the maintenance record.
    Questions:
    How did you know when to replace each of those things? CEL? Or could you just tell?
    Why did you do those replacements that are before 100K? I am pretty sure all of the parts on this truck are original. I am wondering if there is something I need to be doing.

    Thanks! I hope to make my truck last as long as this one.

    Do you change the transmission fluid?

    Your truck will let you know lol. Hear a weird noise or a pop, clunk, tap tap tap. etc. Pads you should change every 100k (widely varies by driver) or if the pads are warn, for instance when I bought my truck with 40k miles it already needed new front pads.

    I usually only change the brake pads when I heard squealing. Is that a bad practice? They have been changed once in my ownership of the truck.

    This truck still has a hard life. Here it is stuck in quicksand yesterday at 365k miles.

    When I look at your odometer I think SWEET.
    Then I think about the $50k in gas I'd have spend to get there.

    These threads are inspiring and makes me forget about the Taco's minor flaws....just hoping mine lasts as long. Will definitely start throwing in Mobil 1 after the Toyota care has expired.
