      If Toyota gave a new truck to everyone that put a million miles on their Toyota pick-up, they would be giving away half of their fleet. It's really not uncommon for these trucks.

    Engine replaced at 880,000 miles.
    Transmission replaced at 1,300,000 miles.

    This is amazing! I just got my access cab Tacoma! I'm proud of my Tacoma and fell in love with it when I took it off the lot. I'm doing some preventative maintenance on my Tacoma now and was waiting to find out what his maintenance is like. What was regularly done when it hits 5k,10k, etc..I was thinking of trading my 2008 for the newer one after the 2008 model just for the newer features in the vehicle, 4wd, and newer design on the front..but I love my Toyota and the way it feels driving down the road. Keeps my family safe and reliability. In my younger days I inherited our 1995 Toyota 4 runner, we never had any major issues with it along those years we had the 4runner. I was young and didn't think the 4runner was cool enough and we traded her in. Now I wish we still had that 4 runner. I still remember my family coming home with that brand new 95 4runner and first thing I said was, is that ours? Haha I'll be working on doing an oil change soon, engine coolant change, and cleaning throttle body, was was your regular maintenance jobs on your Tacoma?

    WOW that is really cool. This just shows you how reliable Toyota vehicles really are. I can see why you don't want to retire this vehicle since you have had it for so long and put this kind of mileage on it and still performs like new well almost. This is just crazy to see a vehicle with this many miles on it. To bad that mileage thing won't go higher and show you just how many miles it has total. I have been driving Toyota's since my first 2012 Rav4 I got and since then have gotten 3 more of them. I just love Toyota's and how reliable they are and really hold up very well and keep their value. Since switching to Toyotas I don't see myself ever switching to a different brand and plan to stay with Toyotas for a very long time. Hopefully in the future we get to see you do another video of you hitting another new milestone on mileage with this vehicle. I would say as long and it keeps running and you have no major issues with it you should keep driving it cause I think that only shows to Toyota how reliable and great their vehicle are they make.

    Great story, yes Toyota must reward its loyalty. I had a 96 Tacoma 4x4 2.7L 4 cyl, I bought it in 2007 and sell it ten years later with 296K miles. I missed it. They where built like tanks. I was taking a U-Turn under a bridge, the day was rainy and the concrete road was slippery so I drove like 10 or 20mph when turning the truck didn't make the turn so It slips and slamp onto the concrete container wall and hitting the side of the front passenger wheel and I get scare but after checking the tire was Ok and just scratches at the rim and the truck drives straight and ok, no damage. Awesome.

    Hi Mike and Hi Jeff.
    I was touched and moved by the story behind how Mike got to do the job he does aswell as the entire video and milage on the Tacoma.
    I just wondered if Toyota, besides the article in the magazine, ever got to reward Mike with a new replacement truck for the best reliability-advertising in the world ever ??
    Just keep it up, wishing you a lot of safe miles in the future, take care and stay healthy.

    When I was younger I would get new trucks at 75k miles cause I thought 100k was high mileage. My last 3 Chevy trucks I ran 275k mi and sold them in great shape. Now I like paid off vehicles and planning to get a gen1 tundra as Toyotas run forever. Wish I still had my tacomas from back in the day.

      You pushed a Saturn to 300,000 miles? Impressive. Most of those were burning oil by 60K miles and completely done by 120K miles.

    Cool story.
    I just recently bought a black 2005 Toyota Tacoma SR5 access cab. Currently own a 1999 Toyota 4RUNNER SR5 HIGHLANDER SP.
    Just recently sold my 1989 1st generation SR5 4RUNNER. I did a lot of work to it but it just kind of got out of control and much too tall for me to continue getting much too tall for me to continue getting in-and-out of.... So that's why I bought the Tacoma

    What a nice guy. I have a 2002 Tacoma that I bought new in 2002. It's still shiny, 4X4, V6, Limited and I've never done anything to it. It's always been driven gently and it has about 258,000 miles; no alternator change, no starter change, just an O2 sensor at 105K. I did replace the timing belt at about 110K and belts and radiator fluid. I use synthetic for all fluids (transmission, differentials) and hope to pass his record (if I live long enough)! I'm retired now but can't use it for Uber because of its age. Too bad. Great vehicle!
