Reply to comment by looking-to-help in My 2004 4Runner with over 320k miles by stratomaster82

Had a 2008 Corolla with 200k+ that still blew cold-ass a/c in summer. She was my daily commuter for 15 years, was laid to rest by colliding with a deer. Still was able to turn around & get me back home. What a champ she was.

I’ll always be a Toyota Man.

Hit a medium sized deer in my 2013 Sonic (142k) at about 40mph last fall. Bastard rolled down the entire left side of the car and didn't even have the decency to die.

Yanked out the LH fender by hand and had to climb in and out through the passenger door for 2 months until it could get into the shop, but that little tank is still purring away! I'll be shocked if I get less than 250k out of it. Amazing how doing regular maintenance can make things last damn near forever.
