    Greetings guys, been reading TW for a while now that i inherited the 05 Tacoma Prerunner from my dad (who passed away last summer). I want to restore this bad guy mostly because my dad loved his truck a lot, the paint needs a job (it has few scratches and the grill paint is like burnt from the sun), the rear fenders are bit loose, also i´m gonna put some new tires and shocks, headlights had been replaced since the bulbs from the turn signals literally melt the interior from the headlights.

    There´s one thing that worries me, the odometer is stuck at 62k miles, I remember my dad bought it like that 5 or 6 years ago, the engine stills runs strong and as far i know, the truck has never hit the garage with any mayor mechanical problem. I really want to know the true millage since my dad used to drive almost everywhere, it has travel the Baja peninsula so many times but if someday i choose to sell this truck, of course i need to know the true millage.
