    After my recent work car tranny went out was looking for a new work car found a 2007 access cab tacoma 85000 mile 2 wheel drive 4 cylinder. How reliable are these trucks?

    Thank you in advance.

    Super reliable but lacking in the power department.
    If you never tow, haul, or ride much in the left lane, you'll be fine for another 200,000 miles.

    Been running a 1.6 liter corolla with a 3 speed tranny not breaking land speed records but there is no power but it does the job. I don't want to drive my tundra over the road to keep the miles off of her she is sitting 220000 and I use it for my camper just don't want to buy the newer tundra not a fan of the new issues.

    Is it a 5 lug 2wd or 6 lug 2wd Prerunner?
    Most of the Tacoma guys complaining about power are those with lifted trucks and other modifications.

    The 4cyl has plenty of power. The 2tr is very reliable. It has a timing chain and hydraulic valve adjusters. Literally 0 maintenance besides little things like spark plugs and such.

    5 lug? Auto or manual? How much $$$?
    That's low miles. Should be very reliable and last a long time. MPG will be better in a car with same 4 cyl engine. Put some skinny tires and a front air dam and you'll gain a little. It's not a lot of power in that truck, you won't be passing many people on the highway

    That sounds better. See if they'll sweeten the pot with some extra maintenance, new tires, etc.
