otro pendejo

hi all....decided I should join a forum now that my truck has hit 200K and might actually require some maintenance......the poor thing has been working like a mule for me, hauling construction supplies over a 10000' mt range, carrying me and my cartop boat plus camping gear for a week to the Sonoran coast and crawling goat trails once there, and mostly getting better mpg than Toy claims for the equivalent 2016 model (23-25 hwy)

total unscheduled maint in 200K has been real wheel bearings/seals (which also took out rear brake shoes when it puked 90W) and a front caliper rebuild which may not have been necessary but i'm phobic about dragging brakes.....not counting consumables like brake pads, shocks, belts/hoses etc. It rolled over 200K going uphill at 80+mph towing a trailer....... the only way they'll pry it from my hands is 1)hands are cold n dead, or 2) Toy brings out a motor akin to Ecoboost or a turbodiesel.

 

Nice and welcome to TW.

 

Bienvenido.... Aqui tambien de Sonora/Guanajuato. Bastante carria para cuatro cylindros pero toyotas son cuerudos. No te claves tanto en modificarlo para que te de otros 200k. Suerte!

 

Welcome!
