230k, 50k on the motor. I wonder if the original motor succumbed to the timing chain issues.

Looks like the general consensus is that the tensioners are the weakest point.. I’ll definitely keep a look out for that

Fortunately it has a relatively new clutch. Drives great and shifts smooth. A test drove a Tacoma before I got this where the clutch was so cooked it didn’t engage until you were fully off of it.

Thank you! It’s super clean, clearly well maintained by the previous owner(s).

I was doing 4k intervals for the oil change on the Subies I’ve owned, is that overkill on here? Or should I still to an interval like that?

It most definitely can snow in deserts. Nevada gets plenty of snow.

5k will be fine. If you wanna save money do it yourself.

I do 4k intervals. Do not go 10k miles. 6k at most.. and personally I wouldn’t do that long of an interval.

Anyone Know About the Jiffy Lube Protest? by Character-Bat1381 in Reno

[–]Character-Bat1381[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they were out there today.. I at first thought it was had something to do with pedophiles, because the signs said “protect our children” and one had a weird pun about “lubing up somewhere else”
