I'm still working on the 100k miles mark. I'm only at 77k would be more if I drove it in the winter. My 99 tacoma has 186k on it.

119,000 miles on my 1998 daily driver. Only 2 non-maintainance repairs; one headlight gear and one oil pressure sensor.

My '93 had 130K something, but the '01 is just turned over 40,000.

I miss it when it only had a few miles on it, it still smelled new inside.

120xxx and no burning oil

Have "Charge System Fault" error that I have been chasing for 3 weeks on and off. Happened after the Suspension codes that came and went without fixing. Alternator is fine, have 2 new batteries for swapping when power goes dead in one, but HAULS **** LIKE NEW!
