I should be at 308,000 before the end of the year, most of my driving is in and around town. This kills my fuel economy, but hardly anyone can keep up with me when the light goes green :)
Have you had any engine issues, or do you hesitate before driving for example three or four hours away? Mine is a 2010 with 67,000 miles. My worried old lady mentality won't let me relax when I'm driving more than a half hour away.

67,000 is NEW!
No issues while I have owned it, and I would not hesitate to take it on an extended road trip far from home. My first road trip in it was 12 hours one way... The truck runs great... the chain tensioners were making noise, ATS oil treatment solved that issue.

I have owned 5 years, and there are no service records for it from the previous owners except tire rotation and radio swap at about 1,500 miles in 2007.

The other day crossed the 213,000 kilometers mark on my car. Still almost zero complaints 🤞

I have a '00 (first year) tundra 4x4 (4.7 2UZ-FE) with slightly over 243k miles.

Engine runs great, strong trans, A/C is freezing, and heater is hot.

The closest time it ever came to breaking down is when a coil pack went bad and I had to misfire limp 60 miles back to civilization to find an Orileys. Luckily it didn't hurt my catalytic converters as far as I can tell.

I've replaced the following things since I've had it the last 2 or 3 years (second owner, bought it with 225k). Some of it necessary, some of it preventative:

O2 sensors
Radiator (top tank seam started leaking)
Spark plugs/coils (one bad coil, replaced them all)
Timing belt, water pump, fan pulley (preventative)
Rack/pinion, inner/outer tie rods (leaking and bad bushings)
Lower ball joints (mostly preventative)
Wheels/tires
Brake pads

I consider it all well worth it. I think she'll be good for another 200k miles easy. I did all the work myself except for the timing belt and water pump. Pretty easy truck to work on and I love it.
