2004 Toyota Tundra, 204,000 miles, only a water pump ever broke. Going for 300,000

Still drives like a plush living room sofa.

I remember 1974 when the Suzuki Samurai was made in a two cycle engine. It looked nice but they were then banned from the US.

I should mention I bought a VW THING in 1975. It looks great but was a piece of junk. Mirrors fell off, radio did not work, brake came of in my hand, Windshield cracked, would not go above 40 mph going from the Ozarks to New Mexico. Had to drive in 3rd gear all the way. Glad to get rid of it.

Nice! We have a couple 4x4 vehicles we really enjoy. These are a couple of the videos we made about them:

Only 4x4 I have left. Tomorrow is her 4th birthday. I sold my Jeep a couple of years ago when used vehicle prices were sky high.

I never understood why folks use the term 4x4....does that mean that folks driving vehicles where power is only going to two wheels are driving 2x4s? Isn’t one of the 4s redundant? If someone has a 4 wheel drive I’m fairly sure it has 4 wheels, no? At what point does a vehicle become a 4x4? I don’t think folks typically call an Audi for example a 4x4....

Just wondering....

For reasons of anonymity, here are pics that are already available on the inter web with the mods that are most approximate, and not necessarily in the colors I have.

23 year old Toyota Tundra 4x4 V8 w/bull bumper, American mags. 110,000 original miles. Had to replace interior door handles recently. Other than regular oil changes, coolant flush, brake pads, and spark plugs everything else is original. Minimum $50-60k to replace. I’m keeping it.
