Front brakes at 10000 and at 22000 needed new rotors. Replaced by dealer free.
Slight vibration at 70 MPH, Dealer never found or corrected problem.
O2 sensor at 48000. Dealer replaced for $50. Deductible.
Front mud flap folds under at car wash. resulting in holes rubbed by tires in both.
All in all it has been a good truck.
Ford, Chevy, or Dodge would have given me more problems.
Truck has plenty of power and low end torc. It pulls my boat great and I don't have to spin my tires to get out of a wet boat ramp. I love it.
I have to admit I drive mine pretty hard sometimes. I just love the feel of power when it hits 3000 RPM.
I am very happy with mine so far.
Yeah man, at 3000 RPM, it rocks, this thing will take a mustang no problem!!
Get a TRD super charger and Frount Brakes will take a Ligthing and handle like a F1.
I worked my 2wd '88 22R Truck Toyota truck way more than my '97 Chevy Z71.
At 160,000 miles, my Toyota had no problems (only the clutch, and starter bushings were replaced, and NOTHING ELSE. It pulled 3 cars, hauled a full load of 2x4 wood, and tons of other equipment. And I drove it to school, then to work and back home daily. Still got 25-27mpg easily.
The Toyota needed the valve seals replaced (it smoked at startup), otherwise no oil leaks of any kind.
Now my '97 Chevy 5.7L z71. It has 80,000 miles. Engine is not peppy. Eats about 2 quarts of oil every 5,000. Eats Coolants. Replaced injectors, power steering pump, pwr window switches, and 3rd door handle. Needs powersteering sensor. When traveling 40+ miles the transmission shifts rough from first to second. Payload isn't that great. Truck sways like a boat. A lot of my hard earned money goes into the Chevy (for gas, and other repairs).
I should have bought a T100.
