170k = too much?
Looking at buying a 1998 tacoma. 4wd std cab short box model with the 4 cylinder and 5 speed. Problem is it has 170,000 miles and I have no experience with these 4-bangers, do they normally last a long time? I know its nothing for a 22r(e), but not sure. Input?

so a new exhaust manifold and an oil leak are the biggest issues? Truck obviously doesn't have a cracked manifold and doesn't appear to leak oil.

147,??? on my 96 x-cab. My manifold is cracked right now, just haven't bothered with it yet. I just noticed it a cpl months ago. Other than that, the truck has been perfect. I expect to run this truck for several more years without a problem.

Yeah man, what everyone else has been saying...I'm at 146k in a 4x4 auto and its been very good to me so far. I had the exhaust leak but no problems other than that. Mine still runs strong as can be man...matted to the 5spd should give you plenty of miles.
