I kept that Tacoma until I traded it in on my 3rd Camry in 2016 which I still have.to this day.

I have always heard that if you do the normal maintenance and keep the fluids changed at proper intervals they will last for years.

Yeah heard the same. 4Runner has a long running reputation as well. Only 250 hp but plenty of torque. Very good steel on both brands. TRO package on trucks and suv holds their value as well. Sequoia Pilot and into the Lexus GS 470 and others have some solid vehicles that lasted quite awhile and many are still available. The problem now as the years go by and times are tough is folks put off oil changes and maintenance work and push some of them vehicles to far and they still run but they all have an expiration date. Vehicle maintenance just isn’t figured into the budget like it used to be and you can see that in used vehicles these days. Also quality control in all manufacturing isn’t what it used to be. Those solid dependable every day cars are what lots of folks are longing for today
