I've had 4, now have 3. The '95 Land Cruiser was totalled.
A couple reasons why.
1. 1995 Land Cruiser, bought with 100k mikes, totalled at about 180k. In that time- mind you, from 100k to 180k miles- all I did was change the oil and replace (1) frozen brake caliper. Still ran and drove as new when totalled.
2. 2006 Tundra V8 4wd. Bought new. Now has 110k miles. In that time I have had (1) thing go bad- the controller for the tire pressure sensors. That's it. Other than that, brakes and oil. It gets used hard.
3. 2005 Corolla, bought for my daughter to use in high school. 175k miles, commuter, super clean. Ran and drove as new. 4 years later all I've done is oil changes. Still runs and drives perfect. Window seal needs replaced.
4. 2005 RAV4. More of the above. Did replace the alternator.
I see no reason to buy anything but Toyota with my hard-earned bucks. YMMV.
