    Hi. I have a 2005 Toyota Tacoma, manual transmission. It appears like I have coolant leaking into the engine block, so may be needing to replace the head gasket. It's at 205,000 miles. What other issues can I expect at this mileage and the mileage approaching. (I'm trying to decide at what point do I need to continue to put money in versus looking for another vehicle option). Thanks.

    Wheel bearings seem to be a pretty common replacement item around here, as well as heater fans, and a starter here and there. Honestly I don't think you are near the give up on it point, unless you just want something new. Many many people get insane mileage out of their tacomas with minimal repairs, but there will be repairs along the way. Have you gotten a quote for the head gasket yet? Do you have the 4 or 6 cylinder?
