My original clutch is just going out at 160,000 miles. Since I purchased it from the dealer, I have replaced the thermostat (which was my fault) There has been no major part failure with the exception of basic maintenance and service, i.e. brakes, tires, etc...
My Toyota has been an exceptional vehicle in all aspects of performance.
I would buy another Toyota without question.
This truck has done everything I needed it to do and lasted thoughout tremendous abuse such as excessively high speeds for long distance and 5 years of stop and go pizza delivery!
My Nissan truck's fuel injection system failed at 70,000 miles. This truck (the Toyota) was all systems go on original everything at 140,000!
Hello.
I agree with your view on a Toyota truck. I have a 1994 Toyota 2wd myself. I have to say it is and exceptional truck. I drive it back and forth to work 140 miles round trip and have never had any problems with it besides basic mantainace. I am at 189k.

My 1994 Toyota 4x4 truck has around 120,000 miles on it. It starts good, runs good, gets good mileage, and feels as solid as a vault. I just had the water pump and timing chain replaced. I have no complaints at all. The truck runs so well, I may drive it to my retirement luncheon in 2030!
How much does it costs you to have the timing chain replace? I have mine replaced recently. It costs me almost $1800. What is the mileage on your truck when you got the timing chain replaced?
Timing chain should be done around 110k its in the front of the engine so I don't know why it would cost 1800 to replace a timing chain unless you broke the chain and had to get a head redone. even then 1800 is high. you can get a used engine put in for less than that.
Dealer cost for me was, just under $600, all the belts included, & water pump.
