Rust is Toyota's kryptonite…Got a 2002 4runner with 240,000 miles in the Northeast.
I disagree about Toyota longitivity ,the rings on Toyota's wear prematurely making lots of smoke
310,000 miles on my lexus ls430 2001. Original engine, transmission, starter, and alternator. Just basic maintenance. Toyota and Lexus vehicles only.
The way i warm up my car in the minnesota mornings is by revving the engine to the 6 on the dial, then it warms the engine in like 12 seconds ? one of the best life hacks ive come across in a long time!!!
Dude forgot to mention, how you drive. If you get a heavy truck with a small engine and drive it like heavy truck with big engine, you might not get a lot of life out of it. Get any vehicle and drive it with your foot to the floor all the time, and it won't last long. Not even one of them good old Toyotas. I see people listing them and saying they've replace the engine all the time. Even an old 2.2 or 3.0 V-6 Toyota won't survive lack of maintenance and reckless driving habits.
I will just buy a Toyota
all this sounds like too much work
Rev up your Toyotas !
I put "Marvel Mystery Oil in every tank load of gas and in the crank at Oil change time. I own a 1989 Dodge B-150 Van with a 318 cubic engine with just over 500,000.00 miles on this original motor. I had the timing chain replaced @ 220,000
miles as a maintance and I personally replace the second one myself @ 500,000 miles.
This van still wants to rip the wheels off when I hit the gas.
Years ago M.M.Oil reformulated the oil so can be added to the gas. As soon as the engine starts your rings and cylinder walls are coated with engine oil and M.M.Oil
Thanks Ratchet!,
What works best is, drive smooth, cruise and change the fluids.
