I’ve got an 02 Tacoma extra cab with the 3.4L/5 psd/4x4. Been an excellent vehicle, and it’s done some serious off-road miles. At 287k it’s only had one front brake job(rears are still going). Nothing but timing belts every 90k, tires, and oil. Clutch is still going strong. Regarding the oil, I do a 10k change interval, and it doesn’t burn a drop. Literally after 10 k the oil is right at the top fill line where it started. I’ve been on the verge of buying a new truck for several years, but nothing really gets me excited enough to part with the money. Just last week I spent $1500 on the front end. It was starting to wander a bit, and the tires wouldn’t stay in balance. It got all new bushings, ball joints, rack bushings, tie rod ends, etc. feels like a million bucks.
If Ford wasn’t price gouging the Raptors, I would probably own one of those right now. I like the Power wagon as well, and that probably occupies my top spot in all reality.
