231,000 and currently a daily driver ($2.35 / gal - Ouch!).
Things that need work:
Speedo - Squeaks, squeals and I can't use the Cruise Control because the speedo needle jumps around.
Intermittent wipers aren't intermittent. They park where you turn them off and on Intermittent they run in slow (normal) speed. In a mist condition I'm the intermittent.
Popping and squeaks in front. It's not the steering stops rubbing, something else. I get a squeak during a left turn, pops on bumps.
Vibration in 4x4. Something in front is either out of balance or worn.
Slight oil leek in pan gasket. I was quoted $900 to fix because the front axle needs to be dropped.
Other than that, I have been very happy (after fixing head gasket - twice). It just keeps on going despite my abuse.
287 K on my 93 T100 and going strong, except my 4WD. I've done a bit of work but mostly due to rust (damn Canadian winters). Gas tank was the most expensive job.
Had 200k on my 97 when I traded it in on my 03 AC step-side. It was still running strong, though the tranny would slip occasionally, but it had been doing that for the last 100k.
228,000+ miles on my 96' SR5 Ext. Cab 2WD. Honestly this truck is bulletproof. I've been to hell and back in this thing and tried to kill it along the way but it just keeps on going without missing a beat.
I finally got a good shop to balance my wheels correctly and she rides just as good as the day she rode off the lot except that she's got 17's on now instead of the factory 15's.
Pics to come.

140k miles still runs great, no rust on body.
60k miles ago I upgraded to 4 Runner 16" alloy wheels and 4 Runner lumbar bucket seats. HUGE improvement over the 40/60 bench that cuts off access to the extended cab space.
237,000 miles on a 1995 Extended Cab 4WD. Never had engine or transmission work, but did get new front end parts, CV axles, and radiator within the last 15,000. Runs great and everything works.
I just turned 112k on my '97 X-tra cab SR5 4 X 4 w/sport buckets and all the power options. Timing belt and water pump was done at 68k. Passenger side rear axle seal at 101k. I recently installed new Michelin LTX M/S tires. What a great ride on the highway! The originals went 106K and still had tread, just starting to dryrot. I just installed a new OE exhaust today. Yesterday I replaced the steering shaft seal on the firewall. The cabin is once again quiet. It runs like a dream. Love this truck.
Replaced radiator (w/copper), rebuilt heads, self-rebuilt starter (didn't need it - just precautionary), new drive-shaft hanger bearing, and installed a used 60/40 seat as mine was losing it's resilentcy. That's it other than tires, battery and misc. bulbs & plastic clips. The front pads are the second, and the rear are original.
I'm thinking the U-joints shoiuld go but they are still tight.
Some minor oil leaks, squeeks and rattles; otherwise no change. Oh: the seat belts should be replaced as they do not retract well without assist. A/C still blows cold.
I just can't justify a newer Tundra. I like the 2000-2002 with the chrome front bumper and V8 or an 2005-up Frontier with either a 4-banger or V6. The newest Tundra is okay - kinda ugly but I'd just get the regular-cab short-bed; not sure what engine to get as this is a daily driver for me, I'm not a power-monger, and the heaviest thing I haul is my dirt bike.
Original owner of a 96, 4x4, XCab with 127K miles on the odo.
Head gasket was replaced per recall. Other than that, I replaced the speedometer cable around 100K because it was causing the cruise control to oscillate a few miles up and down from the set speed. Schedule maintenance performed throughout.
This truck has been driven hard, especially when off roading the trails of Colorado. It also tows our 3000lb pound camper 3-5 times each summer, with an out of state trip every other year or so. This is in addition to a daily commute of some 45miles.
As others have said, so I concur, this truck is bullet proof. I couldn’t ask for more from this vehicle. I suspect she will go another 100K miles without even breaking a sweat.
In the next year or two I plan on getting a 07/08 Tundra to haul a larger, heavier camper trailer. If not for this, I would be happy to drive her till she or me, which ever comes first, dies.
Ok, check this one. 1997 Toyota T100, extra cab 2x4. 312k and still runs like a top! And I have to admit, I'm not the best for "scheduled maintenance, so it's missed a few appointments. It went thru the first 100k on toyota maintanance by the shop, but after that, I've done it all. Thing is, I have not had to do much of anything. Had the timing belt replaced at 160k, first brake job was self-done at 169k, (by me) - front brakes only, back ones are STILL original. Only since 300k have I had to do anything much to it. Had to replace the first light bulb (front left parking light) around 300k, and just today replaced all 3 belts (first time - they were still in one piece and no slipping, squealing, etc - just making me nervous). I checked thru all the hoses and things while under the hood, and they all still look ok. Has a slight rear main seal oil leak, but only put in a quart about every 3000, so not worth dealing with. And I replaced the shocks last weekend. I have no intention of getting rid of it anytime soon - it's bulletproof and better than anything on the road today I can think of!
