Hi, I bought a 2001 Prerunner Double Cab V6, with automatic, new in April 2001. Currently I have over 115,000 miles on it. The only item of repair has been relining the brakes at 98,000 miles and a water pump at 78,000 miles. Still have the original spark plugs, no rattles despite the miserable roads here in Louisiana, and still get an average 18.5 mpg. I change the oil every 7,500 miles on average since I drive a lot of highway miles. I am confident it will go at least 200,000 miles, which it better because I can't afford a new car with 3 kids soon to be in college. Toyotas run nearly forever if maintained so don't be afraid of 75,000 miles or so. (Of course bring the mileage up to whoever you're buying it from, they probably think the vehicle is about ready to fall apart!)
