    Bought mine in July of 16. ~ 41k miles. Mine does have a minor timing cover leak and maybe an even smaller t case leak, but never any reliability issues. Had the tsb for the shim or whatever it was on the manual trans, warrantied out the ds headlamp for peeling uv coat. Leaking third brake light. Whining diff but that went away with new leaf springs. I think that’s everything.

    Good enough for what I do with it though sometimes I think I should’ve stuck with my original plan and imported an HDJ.

    Theres a good looking 10 on there.
    But DC off road, manual, less then 100k.
    Only thing scares me about flying is rust just isn't even a thing out here so kinda foriegn to me. Had Toyotas entire life never heard of frame replacement before TW

    For real but double lockers and a name like usps because if it fits it ships is hard to give up.
    Not sure if I got balls to take a 36k truck over downed logs with all limbs on it still etc etc.

    Wow, that is desolation! Definitely you'd want a reliable vehicle in a place like that.
    Beautiful picture.

    I doubt that 2ng gen MT is better/more reliable than 3rd MT taco.
