400,000 Miles

I think that is just the 2012 models that have that issue, the "limp mode" issue, unless I am thinking of something else.

 

How often did you replace the transmission oil and the radiator coolant? O_O

 

What about plugs ...how often and what brand?

 

This is awesome! So many people gave me crap for buying a 199k mile truck, yet it just passed 205k miles and everything is perfect on it.

Always saying these trucks will go a million miles! It's all about taking care of them. I don't think I'll ever sell mine!

Thanks for all the great details on services at different miles, really interesting

 

Like others, I appreciate this thread. This truck apparently has not been a princess either. Lots of off road and other "severe' use. I plan to just keep my truck as long as I can keep it running. I just turned over 150K, and I can't tell that anything has changed since it was new. I still have 100% confidence when I hit the road.

 

It didn't mentioned u replacing spark plugs?

 

Guys with all the plug questions, pretty sure he stated every 30k with OEM plugs, but didn't show much wear.

 

WOW, I plan on dropping in a fresh motor and transmission when mine finally goes. Im almost to 100k now, my old 91 was still kicking at 314k when I sold her never selling my Tacoma again. This gives me faith that she will run for just as long

I replace my oil religiously at 5k and have only ran the same synthetic oil since I brought her home from the dealer back in August of 08

 

400,000 / 20 = 20,000 gallons of gas
wow!

 

Great post, I didn't see if you changed the serpentine belt? Must have by now lol

 

Update?

 

Did I miss something... timing chain never changed??? I was thinking I am at 274,000 and should consider getting in there, f it!

 

My 06 is at 231k no issues did front wheel bearings and brakes also one o2 sensor runs like a champ 400k is a great accomplishment!

 

I gotta say original water pump and alternator is quite impressive!

Also found this earlier in post. "Shocks and springs all replaced with lift at 200k miles." Probably a tad overdue, esp with all the offroading.

 

Almost made it a year before the revive, lol

 

Meh, 10 months.

 

As athers have said that is very impressive! I know the older Toyota trucks have gone that far but with all the negative things you read about the 2 Gen I always wandered it they would go that far. Well this thread cleared that up for me. OP congrats on the mile stone and thanks for posting this thread as it gives me the confidence and hope.

 

Wonder if it cracked half a million yet.

I definitely don't have that luck with my alternator, and steering components

 

I think I remember reading that he picked up a 16' and gave this one to his son

 

Strange the OP hasnt posted since April 2017. Wonder how the truck's doing?
