The last Toyota I owned. A 4runner, aside from maintenance items, I honeslty only changed one interior light bulb in 6 years ownership and 120K miles. It was slow as hell though
...LOL...I know what you mean brotha'....GM has a lot of little nickel and dime quality issues that just **** me off. The worst part is that I work for GM and I have to see these things everyday, and the amount of diffrent **** that fails.....so I'm just waiting for mine to do the same. Although I love my GMC's, I will be the first to admit that they have their fair share of bullshit repairs.

I owned a 1996 Toyota Tacoma...a really rare truck because it was a single cab, 3.4 V6 5-speed 4X4!!! I loved that truck!!! Other than me putting a lift kit on it, exhaust, headers, CAI and a FastProms Chip.....I never had to turn a repair bolt on the 5 years I owned it. The day it got totaled it had 164,000 miles on it too.....and absolutely no repairs. So....I totally know what you're sayin'....lol

Yeah Lets Not Talk About Some Issues With Gm.... We Had A 07 Truck With 500 Miles On The Clock And It Wiped Out A Rod Bearing.... Instead Of Keeping The Customer Happy And Just Putting An Engine In, And Getting The Truck Out In A Couple Days... They Told Us To Put A New Crank/rod In, And Rebuild Motor


I Think That Was A Bs Call By Gm And Will Tie The Guys Truck Up For A Week Or So, And Its A Work Truck On Top Of That... Not That Gm Is Bad... Just Sometimes They Do Stupid Stuff



Btw Give It A Shot We Have Covered Some Clusters With Over 70k On Them
