Just done 200,000 and have absolutely no probs, gear box a little loose and not the same responsive power form new but to be expected done alot of towing etc. Getting good fuel economy 550km or abit more depending no your speed. The key for me has always been work them hard and regular full servicing. drove a mazda bounty 2500 double cab and did nothing to it mechanically just minor and did 400,00 and i think its still going now done over 500,00. all go so far let you no any changes.

have a 2007 3L auto with 130,000 on the clock was getting 400klm out of a tank found that the once the fuel light came on 380klm I still had 15L of fuel in the tank.
+ the people who fitted the tray put the fuel filler in the wrong placde so you couldnt get a full tank, now getting about 650klm out of the tank

105000 kms gearbox dead, and Mazda don’t want to know about it. Haven’t wanted to know about the inaccurate speedo since day one (may be to get them selves out of warranty clams earlier) Shall next time buy a Triton with 160,000 km warranty. And just to add salt to the wound on the next day received text for “M” day. Never ever again

You must one of the lucky few Toyota owners that has not had a recall.
