Fourth or fifths on the 3.0. Run away!!

Crappy performance and atrocios fuel consumption.

A Toyota pickup really should get better fuel milage than an HD 3/4 ton 4x4 with a six liter v-8. And it will with any motor besides the 3.0

My daughter and SIL's rig

First engine was not Toyota's fault. The radiator had a pin hole and they burned down the motor. I payed $5000 for an r&r on a rebuild. 2000 miles later it was in the shop again. Low compression, rebuilt the heads again.

Several years and 10,000 miles later, compression is down again. New heads are going to cost more than the rig is worth.

I shoukd have just paid to have a 22R installed the first time we put it into the shop.


People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.
