    1999 Toyota Tacoma. A dinky two-door job. Still running. It’s old enough to buy itself a drink. Has a shell on the back. I’m the kind of guy who runs the car until it runs no more or isn’t cost affordable. Get regular oil changes, general maintenance, nothing spectacular. A life utility vehicle. Little rusty around the edges, and definitely a car for an old dude who doesn’t have to impress the chicks. As a matter of fact, it tends to attract older guys, like me, who walk up and say “that is such a cool truck.”

          That’s actually a bit light on mileage ain’t it? Us it your daily commuter? I calculate about 9k miles per year that you put on it, which is low compared to the us average of 14k. Regardless that’s great it’s lasted you a long time, and you haven’t needed to put a lot of mileage on it.

          Nice! My '08 Mazda6 has 166k, I’m hoping to break the 200k barrier myself
