400,000 Mile Club...we did it!

My odometer hit a milestone over the weekend: 400,000 miles! I took possession of my Toyota 4 Runner “Mr. T” when I left college back in 1998. Still has the original engine/transmission and has only been on the back of a tow truck twice (lower ball joint failure and busted oil pressure sender/switch). A big thank-you for everyone on this forum who shared their expertise /knowledge in helping with my maintenance questions thru the years. Looking forward to the next 100,000 miles and the new travel adventures that await us…

Congratulations! Great post, great story.
 
Congrats! Quite the accomplishment. Only 390,000 miles left for me to catch up. Impressive that the antenna still works.

I haven't seen Schlitz around here in some time.
 
That's awesome! Your truck looks like it has no where that many miles, you've taken great care of it.
 
Nice ! My 98 has 178K on it. I have a long way to go to get that many miles.
I always find it amazing that the pictures of these 18 yr. old trucks look so good. And yet they are never photoshopped?
Drive on and keep the Forum updated.
I'll second the beer upgrade as well. One good beer trumps six bad ones.

What an achievement. This is why I'm in this forum, to get the most out of my 4runner. Have a 98 and hope to get her to 300k. 400k is just an awesome accomplishment.
