Another good time in this truck.

Was supposed to take the 60 to big bend but my buddy got sick. We were gonna make it an old truck trip.

Hopped in the 200 and took the wife and dog instead.

I really need to fix the valley place coolant leak. But it’s still running good. 282,000 miles. We’ve been driving it a ton.

Another great trip in this truck. Bought with 267k and I’m at 283k now. I have a new set of stock sized Michelins at home and I’ll soon do a bunch of upkeep to it.

 

[HemiAlex]

New stock sized Michelins and a detail.

287,000 miles. 20k since we bought it in August.

I’m getting ready for a transmission service, pcv valve and differential service. Nothing is really wrong, just needs some love.

That’s a beautiful truck. You would never know it had that many miles based on looks. I doubt you could say the same about a rust belt truck.

For Sale - El Paso, TX: 2013 Toyota Land Cruiser Overlander

Up for sale here is my beloved 2013 Toyota Land Cruiser. By way of backstory, I bought it bone stock with 88k from Toyota of Boerne here in Texas after my 1996 FJ80 caught fire while off-roading and burned down in front of my eyes (see profile pic). With the input and help from a few of the...

By that point it will be mine. Or I’ll buy a 5.7 Tundra.

Thanks. There is literally no indicator of the mileage from the outside.

I didn’t pay retail, but that window sticker in the glovebox makes me feel wealthy.

Have headlights been replaced? Crystal clear OEM lights up front make any 200 pristine.

I’m loving the Tundra/200 combo myself.

Nice, well kept rig you’ve got here! 174k in it ‘09 LX.

Replaced right before I bought it.

You completely understand what a value these are. The quality never stops.

One of the best looking trucks ever made, especially when stock like that. So tempted to pick up a 2008 myself...

Not this owner! It’s amazing how similar your trucks look to my 2020. Same bones; they’re awesome.

Not me! It's a beautiful vehicle and I actually prefer some aspects of the look to the newer model. Especially the back of the truck.

Almost 300k miles is awesome too.

Small service. I was going to do a full cooler flush on the trans but I decided to do two back to back pan exchanges about 1000 miles apart. I don’t want to risk breaking pan bolts.

I’ll do pan fluid exchanges about every oil change after that and see what color the fluid comes out at that point. I’ll run about 15 quarts of this $7 atf from Aisin through it.

The KDSS screws nearly gave me a heart attack. I’ve learned my lesson.

A mix of oem dealer parts and some rock auto oem equivalents.
