1992 Toyota Pickup

5 speed manual transmission


It is small, rear wheel drive, and has little weight over the rear wheels. Can make it fun sometimes....

Keeping it garaged helps a lot, that's my guess.

It's not perfect and it does have around 120,000 miles. The previous owner bought it new and cared for it until I aquired it. I have to say that my upkeep is not quite a good as his, needs a wax and it has scrapes and such from putting motorcycles and other things in the bed.

What in the hell? Treat it well? Toyota pick-ups are to be treated like the red headed step child that they are... images/smilies/thumbup.gif

I love these things, my family has owned several, all have been TORTURED and they easily clocked 500k miles. And then the other cars with the engine from it... oh the things we've done to those cars and seen them put up with.

My question is, how the hell did you find one with ONLY 120k on it, I just assumed they didn't leave dealer lots until they had 200? images/smilies/lol.gif
