I have a Tacoma (1999) that went 138,000 miles on the front brakes (and that includes four years of pulling a rather heavy ski boat). The rear brakes have 159,000 on them. I know the rear brakes do a lot less work, but still, they have lasted!
Also, the factory clutch still works, although I am sure it will need replacing soon.
So far, in 12 years,I have only replaced a spark plug wire that a rat ate, and, since I was bored, the spark plugs as well at 100,000 miles.
Glad you mentioned about the spark plug wire. My sister had squirrels eating the insulation under her hood. They even got to the ignition wires but we were able to fix that. Been all over the web about how to keep squirrels from doing this but found little useful info. I used a spray from a lawn and garden place to try and keep them away from my Christmas lights but it smelled bad and didn't do much good so I don't think it would help with a car. Anybody have a way to keep squirrels out of the engine ?
