i hate you guys lol, seriously though, i wouldn't feel as stupid as i do putting all the time and money into my truck, if it looked like your does... Ok, so i've taken care of all the rust on the body, and most of the frame, but still, everything else still has cancer..... which like i was saying, not only makes it more difficult to repair, but makes thee repairs not as worth while. Your like YES, NEWISH ENGINE... and rust wholes.... i hate salt.... i'm going to make a petition to make salting roads illegal...

you know, after owning this truck fro 2 years, i will never go back to any other make of vehicle... my truck has given me her little tiffs now and then, but shes always there for me when i need her... and if dumping a couple hundred dollars into her a year in maintenence, then i figure that im still better off than buying something new... i love my truck, and wouldnt give her up for the world!

Ya.... I know..... unfortunatly....
I have a makeshift fuel filter because of it. Line near it was rusted and when "we" (friends helpin me) broke the line.... had to get a rubber hose and fuel filter that fit..... still not fixed right. Any ideas on where to get a cheap fuel line? ....

One the best features of our trucks is how rebuildable they are. almost every component can be rebuilt.

As time goes by a lot of people seem to conclude that "it's just an old truck" and stop making sure they are taken care of properly. cutting corners on repairs or letting them slide for a while and the next thing you know the problems start to escalate until you are driving around in a real pile on it's last leg.

By keeping up the same as you did when it was new your truck can last virtually forever as long as the body and frame hold out.

The body on mine is toast. I just put a deposit down on a new fiberglass bed though

I keep planning what I'm going to do when the 22R dies, but I have a funny feeling that's more like "IF" the 22R dies. This is my 3rd 22R-powered vehicle, and I've yet to see one die.

I sincerely feel for ya brother. When I lived in local mountains for awhile they resorted to this no salt gravel type material. It didn't melt the ice, but dug into it enough to give pretty good traction after the zamboney, I mean snow plows made us a fresh skating surface. Like driving on sandpaper if you will. The stuff exists. I would do what you can to push the issue. Obviously the damage seems greater then the benefit in your case.

thats going in my sig

Yeah, from what i understand about the gravel is that it creates a real mess and chips things. I'm saying just leave the crap alone, if it gets real bad, and its suppose to stay real cold for a couple weeks, ok salt. But with average snowfall, daily traffic, and sunlight, there is hardly merit in salting a road that will clear up on its own. Then there are the side roads, in which case i have no idea why they are salted, on my road there is like an average of 14 houses a mile, and not any real traffic, and being winter, people just need to slow down, or not take back roads, common sense.

Lol, but wouldn't it be better if like this thread gets erased, and Toyota reps all contact us and are like, you can't tell anyone what you've uncovered.
