Default My Tacoma at 50,000 miles...

Finally had to spend more than I usually do on oil and filter
changes...needed front brake pads and had the rotors turned...$201.
Probably have to pop for four tires at 60,000. It's certainly been a
no-drama vehicle so far.

Surprised they turned rotors. Most these days replace as not a lot of
extra meat.

They can charge more to turn the rotors than a new set costs!

I have an 18 y/o Tundra with 130,000 miles on it. Good vehicle except
for the rotors. I finally got some 3rd party rotors that are drilled
and slotted. So far so good.

I'm starting to think about replacement tires. Haven't done any research
yet. Mostly paved road driving, a bit of snow driving. Need good
traction in rain, quiet tires. 17"-ers.

I replaced the original equipment tires on my 2013 Highlander with Michelin tires. Couldn't believe it how quick they wore down. Costco got me a warranty credit and replaced those with All Weather tires...which are in-between all season and real winter tires. So far, so good.
BTW... just turned 65000 kilometers on the clock.

Goodrich Advantage T/A Sport LT 17 inches also.
These are what the Costco tire manager recommended considering my driving habits of mostly low milage city driving.

For the haters in here the LT stands for light truck

That is the way cars are now. I have had my Honda for almost 20 years
and I haven't done dick to it. At this point an oil change might
double the value ;-)
