205,000 miles still rolling
I bought this new from a dealership in 1999 trading in my 1996 Tacoma with 300,000}+ miles on it (should have kept it as back up it was still running great but was STD cab) This truck has been through 2 front end collisions one costing over $16,000 in damages, two side hits and one roll down a hill! It has spent many months in body shops. Regardles of how hard I beat it to death it still keeps going. I've had to replace the clutch at 200k which was the first major part excluding parts replaced in accidents. All in all I will never buy another make or model. Hopefully Toyota will see this and send me one for my family of 5. It's a bit cramped! I'll drive it to death & then try to buy another
Your Best Bet
Yes, it does cost a little more but it is worth every penny. This truck has not let me down in any way. From build quality to MPG it is a winner. My father has an S-10 that was purchased at the same time in 1999 and his has been in the shop 5 times. My Taco has only seen the inside of a shop for routine maintenance. By the way, get the TRD package if you can find it. Better ride, better off-road, more options.

Small gripes
I was thinking all all the things I don't like about this truck, and they were all minor. When I'm worried about things like cupholder size and take for granted the engine, transmission, etc I have to admit I'm nitpicking! My truck has 45,000 miles on it and has been in for repair.... well once something does break I'll tell you about it! (My 94 Grand Cherokee, on the other hand, is a money pit)
Excellent product
My 99 Tacoma has served me well over 39 months that I've owned it. One problem I had (fixed under warranty)was the airbag sensor went bad but it was replaced. I intend to keep this truck until it rolls over and dies.
Excellent
BUY IT !!!!. This is the best vehicle that I have ever owned. I absolutely recommend this truck to anyone.
