Toyota truck
Can't help with the forum, but here's my 0.02. I have owned over 60 cars & trucks since I got my license, and the only thing I have ever owned twice is a Toyota 4x4 pickup, and I am looking at getting another one now. In my experience, the things to watch for are:
1. In a rust belt climate, the FRAMES are prone to failure.
2. Blown headgaskets seem to be common in 22R engines ( i have 2 Celica parts cars with this problem, and I lost one of my trucks to that)
3. Carburetors will occasionaly start flooding for reasons I was never able to track down (both my trucks, and an 81 Celica I had)
4. HARSH HARSH ride in 4x4's with solid front axles.
5. Otherwise nearly indestructible. I had hammered on, berm jumped, and rolled my 4x4's, and like a Timex, "Takes a licking, and keeps on ticking"
