I have a 2001 4x4 Tacoma. Modified the rear end at 300,000 miles. 2.7 litre 4 cy. Have been driving on dirt, sand, rocks, steep climbs, and on the road. It now has 360,000 miles. Never a problem with original motor. Replaced all the other usual stuff. Tranny has been serviced. I always change the oil, use full synthetic 5w 30. Rust is a problem with the body due to driving in snow and salt. What a truck!
