2008 Toyota Tacoma with 1.2 Million Miles...

Kind of an advertisement, but still...impressive.

Stock Suspension
Original Spark Plugs replaced at around 700k.
Engine Replacement at 880k.

Otherwise, nothing but maintenance...

I agree, and this statement "Original Spark Plugs replaced at around 700k". Typical high end spark plugs are good for only ~100k. I sure hate to see what those looked like at 700k.

If you've replaced the engine, you've done a little more than "routine maint"

I actually do know a guy with a 93 Toyota Truck with close to 1 million on it. The only major thing he has done to it was a head gasket. He's had to replace a few clutches over the last 30 years, but other than that routine maintenance. He had it resprayed a few years ago, truck looks pretty damn good for how old it is.

And here I am fighting my step daughters' 2011 Toy car with the 1.8 L 4 banger......oil/filter change, stupid plastic cap on the filter is stuck on the engine/but good, can't get it to spin off, so just the oil changed.....

I understand from parts guys that stock the new plastic cap for 45 bux that ALL makers sell just filters for like 5 bux, but then have to put them in a housing with a typical plastic cap.....WTF is the matter with a PH5 and get hell over it already???

OK let's math this. 11 years × 24 hours/day x 365 days/year is 96,310 hours. Let's be generous and say the truck ran constantly at 50 mph for that time - 4.8M miles.

Is anyone willing to believe this truck ran at 50 MPH for 1/4 of the time it has existed?

I’m not sure about that but the dude is driving >100k a years to hit those numbers, 2k miles a week is a lot, 400 a day 5 days a week, that’s like being a truck driver
