[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 294552, member: 1963"] Congrats on the new baby. Congrats especially on buying a Toyota passenger car. I've driven mostly Toyotas for thirty years (one or two Hondas in there). Basically with Toyotas; if you follow your scheduled maintenances properly (hint, if you don't rack up 3K miles in 3 mos, then get the oil changed every 3 months and don't wait until you actually put on the 3K), these things last FOREVER. I have never had to do a a major repair on a Toyota that had less than 150K on it. I have had to do some major maintenance, but you can't really complain on replacing a major gasket or similar at 200K I've had three Corollas over the years. My high mileage champ was sold privately for 1.5K with 297K miles on it. Mechanically it was still good, but the interior had seen better days and i got sick of springs sticking me in the butt. My latest Toyota is a 2002 4-runner (SUV) that gets around 18K. I would go the program but I own my car outright and I don't want to make payments on a new one. [/QUOTE]
