To ensure your Toyota Tacoma lasts beyond 100,000 miles, follow the manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule, stay current on major services and oil changes. The trucks are built for longevity, and some measures you can take are not neglecting alerts, gauges, or lights and monitoring your fluids regularly. Additionally, remember to change your air filters, inspect and rotate your tires. Failure to adhere to these guidelines may result in unexpected breakdowns or costly damages.

    My car has 204,000 miles on it and it runs perfectly. I met someone last month who has the same car model from the same year, and theirs has 750,000 miles on it.

    Between my experience, the number ranged from 289,992 to 418,764 with regular maintenance. There was another figure in the middle. Over a period of 19 years, three of them together added up to well over a million!

    I've got a car that's approaching 500,000 miles and it's still running perfectly.

    My Tacoma, with 215,000 miles on it, requires a rebuilt air compressor as the only significant repair needed. But I'll keep on truckin'.

    So, my '86 kept on truckin' for 16 years and a whopping 365,000 miles until the clutch finally gave out. Passed it on to my brother-in-law who fixed it up for my nephew, and that bad boy hit over 500,000 miles. Now, my 2000 ride is still goin' strong with over 260,000 miles on it. Just gettin' started!

    In 2006, my Toyota Tacoma with 185,000 miles had the frame welded, replaced wheel bearings twice, installed two alternators, and experienced a broken right strut shaft. Apart from these issues, regular preventative maintenance was also carried out on the vehicle.

    I drive a Toyota Tacoma that has clocked in 230,000 miles on the odometer.

    My V6 Tacoma from 2006 recently surpassed 220,000 miles and is still going strong. I had to replace the alternator and the right front wheel bearing a couple of years ago. I take good care of it, making sure to change the oil every 4,000 miles with Mobil 1 full synthetic.

    I drive a 2005 Tacoma and just hit 400,000 miles on it. It's still going strong, just like when I first got it.

    I drive a 1997 Toyota Tacoma with 424,000 miles on it, and it's still running great. I absolutely love it!

    The previous response should have indicated a Toyota Tacoma 2003 extended cab model.

    I currently have a truck that has a mileage of 270,000 miles, and the only engine work done on it was the hundred thousand mile service which included a new water pump. The original transmission has been well-maintained as well. The truck runs perfectly, and I am confident it can go for another 200,000 miles without any issues. I feel comfortable driving it anywhere on any trip and I receive offers from people wanting to buy it almost daily, even though it is not for sale.
