"Solid and Expensive"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Break light went on after 12 months

Recall for gas line problem

Front brakes wore abnormally and had to be replaced at 19,000 miles Not covered by warranty.

General comments?

Feels solid and great pickup.

Ease of Use isn't nearly as good as the Honda. The clock, for example, can't be read by driver (it's hidden behind the steering wheel) and the door lock toggle isn't intuitive which way is up.

2002 Toyota Tacoma, brakes replaced at 10,000 miles and at 21,000 miles.

Entire dashboard had to be removed to locate a rattle.

I knew about the clock issue before I bought it. Although it does sometimes drive me nuts, at least I get to feel smarter than engineers.

I am just past 34,000 and I am now searching for how to work on the break light issue. It drives well, and is very quiet, but I am beginning to miss my '94.
