I agree with the weak leafs on the Tacoma's... I'm on my second set (aftermarket 4 leaf) and they are sacked out!
I have two Toyota's and my dad's 2x2 sitting in my yard to make 3.
My first one was purchased used in 1993 and I have put probably +100K miles on it (217K or so last check) and it resides at my mom's as a back up. I also have a 1996 Taco with a V6 so that doesn't count.
The 4 bangers are solid as a rock!!! You can do anything you can do with any other truck, it just takes longer. I have towed stuff with my 4 cyl were I had to start out in low range to get moving. Flailing away at levers and pedals to beat hell!
I would buy another 4 cyl in a heart beat but you aren't going to tow a trailer down the interstate at 95mph with one. Love the small trucks though! Like having an ATV with AC/heat and wipers.
Both of my trucks...4 banger to the rescue!!!
