isn't it because of a flawed design? Like the way the ball joints are positioned the weight of the truck is pulling them apart more than its pushing them together. But I'm just regurgitating something I read on some Tacoma forum

Reminder

" So I did a mechanics apprenticeship for Toyota, in Australia, between... 2003-2007. During that time we had a few massive recalls. One of which was to replace the steering rod relay bar in the front of Toyota Surfs, and Fronteras (the wagon version of a Hilux)
Most of these cars hadn't seen a dealer for a decade. They're old cars. But Toyota was recalling them anyway, because of reports of what they obviously felt was premature ball joint failure.
After that, they had a massive recall on Prado rear axles. First gen Prados, all of which were well out of warranty by that stage.

They'd had one or two reports, worldwide, of rear axles breaking off on vehicles that had been subjected to extreme conditions, in this case described as "fast mountain roads". So they recalled every vehicle that had been fitted with that lot of axles and replaced them all.

I also remember fitting new wiper blades to cars, under warranty, because they squeaked. Except they hardly squeaked. Hardly made a noise. Old farts with the radio switched off were the only ones who ever complained.

At the same time, my friend was doing an apprenticeship at Ford. Which had:
>Ford Territory ball joints experiencing total failure (separation) while under warranty (in some cases less than 30,000k)
which were labeled a consumable item and replaced at the customers expense
>Falcon disk brakes that would warp between services
which would be machined at. every. service at the customers expense
>Flexible rear brake lines snapping on Falcons
which took two years to recall, and up until that day were being replaced at the customers expense.
>leaking power steering racks
that would not be replaced/repaired unless they had more than a teaspoon full of oil in the boots. Mechanics were literally told to pull the boots back and measure what dribbled out.
Which would categorically fail a roadworthy inspection in any state.

Toyota recalls everything. It's a good thing. Unless you're a shareholder."

Better than those three shitty "American trucks" Ford, GM, & RAM.

A Tundra also clocked in at 1 Million miles with it's original engine, GASOLINE engine might I add. I like to see one of the big three achieve that milestone.

Stay BTFO

>>17150870
I looked up million mile toyota truck on craigslist for cheap truck. I dont see any....

My 2007 Tacoma has 220,000km of beating it to shit driving like a douche bag and off-roading and getting stuck and smashing rutted potholed back roads at speed and apart from driving like crap due to the worn shocks the only issues have been a frame rust recall, a broken leaf spring, and a minor rear diff issue. I have not taken proper care of this truck yet it keeps on going. If it was a f150 or ram it'd be halfway to the scrapyard by now.

>>17150966

don't worry Toyota will fix their swiss cheese frame so it's ok kekek

>>17150974
It has been driven hard and off-roaded a lot. 220,000km of actual truck miles is quite a bit... I've been rear ended in it and crashed it a few times and it still drives well. Once I redo the suspension and change all the wearables it will probably drive like new again. Not one major repair or breakdown. It's never let me down.

>>17150986
They outright replace the frame or do a repair if it's a minor rust issue. Good luck ever getting that kind of service from ford or dodge or Chevy.

They've had some issues but Toyota doesn't ignore them.

>toyocucks will defend this

>>17151033
Not defending it

Just going by my experience

It's an overpriced Japanese brand truck
Value for dollar is based on their reliability but unfortunately as with most new vehicles they are too expensive

I wouldn't buy one new again

All I'm saying is I've treated mine like garbage yet it keeps on ticking

I guess 220k isn't a ton

But I haven't put a major dollar into it and I expect with minor maintenance it will do half a milllion kms

>>17150923
okay? that has nothing to do with what i said though dipshit. Toyota makes strong dependable engines that can last well over 1 million miles.

So far none of the big three has achieved such goal.

Jesus Christ, learn to read stupid. The only proof you've shown where truck manufactured under an american brand that made a million miles was the Ford because they actually showed the odometer.

>>17151735
You seriously can't be this stupid. But this is /o/, it reeks stupidity.

>it's not real because i don't want to believe it

I'd believe it if they showed the odometer, they only did it for the Ford, not the Chevys.. how are you going to make a video about the truck circled around it having over a million miles if you're not going to show the odometer as proof?

>here's some chebbys with "proof"
>diesel chevy
no shit those are going to make 1 million miles, because it has a diesel under the hood. Knowing that a diesel engine is going to have impressive longevity, i'm not at all surprised.
I'm talking about an "american" truck with a gasoline engine reaching 1 Million miles if you read my post thoroughly, not a diesel.

>ok clearly you're a retard
nah, i'm afraid that'll be you.

>super ass blasted that the Chevy one didn't show odometer.
Like I said, if your are going to make a video topic about a truck that reached 1 million miles, obviously you have to show the odometer for me to believe it. Don't just expect me to sit there and believe your truck made 1 million miles if you arent going to show me evidence first.

>very under inflated tires

Ball joints suffer with saggy sidewalls

>>17150870

Wow a single tundra made it to a million miles! That's a normal thing with a domestic truck if you take care of it. Even a dodge cummins can make it to a million miles. And after seeing this thread even a Dodge would go though less ball joints than a Toyota truck.

At least Jap trucks are consistent, and when they admit they have a problem, they will literally bend over to fix it (buyback, or replacing entire frames)

>only needed consumables, tires, oil etc.
Only thing it actually had replaced was the clutch and suspension bushings.

My Ranger with 190k miles needs a ball joint I think. Total POS. Why can't Ford get a ball joint that lasts more than 200k miles? I should have bought a Taco 1/2 as old like my neighbor that got denied for frame replacement because it wasn't bad enough, and then 2 years later got scrapped because the frame rotted in half and DO NOT DRIVE DO NOT DRIVE DO NOT DRIVE

Tacos are notorious for ball joint failures, one of only a few faults on an otherwise super reliable truck. I looked into it a while back and apparently it has something do with flawed suspension design rather than the part itself. Personally I'd upgrade to a OEM heavy duty part. Rockauto probably has them.

You could put this in front of every fucking truck.
Dodge suspension components
GM Intake Gaskets
Ford 2.9 heads/3.8 HG

Vegas were notorious for head gasket failures, only one of a few faults on an otherwise super reliable car.

Guess I should've specified *minor* faults for the austists in cue.
