1982 Toyota Pickup Shortbed review from North America
"Uncomfortable, but EXTREMELY reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Pretty much nothing considering I've owned it for eighteen years... mostly normal things like oil changes and new tires, etc.
Once someone tried to steal it, and broke the rear window and jammed a screwdriver in the ignition. It costed about $500 USD to repair.
General comments?
Extremely reliable. If I didn't care about being warm in the winter, cool in the summer, looking good, or being comfortable, it would be the best car on Earth...
It's paid for itself about seven times now. I would definitely buy Toyota again.
