This pickup belongs to Mike Neal, a courier service worker from the US state of North Carolina. The man bought the Tacoma new, and over 17 years of use, he has accumulated over 2,615,000 kilometers on the odometer. That means the car covered approximately 200,000 kilometers per year on average.
Under the hood is a 2.7-liter gasoline engine with four cylinders, producing 160 horsepower. Mike Neal did not neglect scheduled service visits, keeping the powertrain, transmission, and chassis in proper condition. That is why the factory transmission lasted without replacement up to the 2 million kilometer mark.
This story once again confirms a simple truth: if you take care of your car in a timely manner and do not skip scheduled maintenance, it can delight its owner for many years and cover millions of kilometers without serious breakdowns.
