I have a '99 Limited with 213,000 on the clock. It's my daily driver. It runs great get sbetween 17.5 and 19.5 mpg and, incredibly doesn't burn oil between 5,000 mile oil changes (Mobil 1).

I have about 176k on the clock on my '97 and she runs like a champ. I've had no real problems with her other than replacing the starter and my mileage is usually around 15.5 mpg.

253K kilometers (158K miles) on my 97 4runner. Timing belt/WP, recent clutch, and regular maintenance/brakes and going strong. Oh yeah, and I pulled a 4250# trailer over the mountain passes of BC, Canada 2-3X this year with no issues, plus go 4x4ing mostly in winter months in our Rocky Mountains. I figure she's just breaking in...LOL, after all it's a Toyota.

Interesting, I just viewed the results of this poll and it shows one member has over 300K miles on their 3.4L...that person being Texas Ace. Yet, in this thread of his dated 7/25/07, Click Me, he states the following:
So Tex, I guess I'm puzzled how you racked at least 175K miles in 2 months?? And yet you stated in that same thread you want to add a SC to your ride?? Don't think I'd do that with a vehicle w/ over 300K on the OD.

Just registered with YotaTech. I was impressed after browsing many threads here. I am vision impaired (don't worry, my wife drives, not me), and the black background with large print set up is wonderful.
We love our 10 yr. old 4Runner, and it has been sooo good. Just turned over 100k, and had a new starter, timing belt, WP, plugs, air filter done at 97k. 1st alignment needed was at about 95k, and we are 35k miles into our second set of Wrangler tires (look good for another 25k or so). Front pads still have 5mm.
I was led to YotaTech from an Edmunds forum post I happened on that led to the 'Bypass OE Tranny Cooler' thread here. I must confess that I am a bit scared about the OE radiator, and this presents a new concern I did not know I had. The hi-milers posting here do not seem too concerned, so that helps my jitters a bit!
Hope to learn and contribute to YotaTech in the coming years.

353k is really impressive! I hope mine is still running strong when I get there.
My '97 has 176k on it. I bought it with 136k in 2006. Since owning I've replaced the valve cover gaskets after discovering a small leak, replaced the timing belt at 150k, replaced an O2 sensor and recently replaced the mass air flow sensor. I have another O2 sensor to replace and hopefully I'll be done spending money on it for awhile.
