1998 Toyota Tacoma SR5 4x4 review from North America
"Most reliable truck out there"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At 26,000 miles one of the rear spring leaves cracked. I believe this had a lot to do with a bump I hit during a cold spell (-23f) one Chicago winter morning. Toyota replaced it under warranty with zeal and I was back cruising in no time.
General comments?
Sturdy truck which I expect to run forever.
