That's cool, but I'm surpised it's a Toyota and not a Jeep!
My last '86 4Runner I had for 6ys, had 329K miles on it when I sold it and I still got $6k for it when we parted ways.

hmm, yeah, I definately remmebr this from some time ago, but he doesnt say there, has he ever replaced the tranny or motor, there doesnt see to be too too many service records or anything. Would be kind of interesting to see though.

Yeah, I'd like to know exactly what all has been repaired/replaced on this truck.
With the way he racks up milage per year, seems like he'd be getting an oil change once a month and a new T-belt every year.

His is an original automatic transmission. Incredible.

that is kinda hard to fathom... what exactly does he do to get that much mileage? the mileage isnt on the engine but on the truck...right? someone mentioned that he had a new engine put in..... i can believe the figure on two seperate engines.

Either way, racking up a million miles in 16yrs is pretty fast!
I average 20k miles on my 4R. If I tried to rack up a million miles on my current 4R by doing 20k miles a year, I'd be 72 yrs old when I finally hit the mark.
I'll try it and see how far I can make it. haha

Please do!! Find out as much as you can...also try and talk him into adding more info about his Toyota on his site. He's a little vague about it.
