I treat it like crap (canyon carving and the like) and it has 157k. It leaks oil from every seal it has (checked this using oil tracers), has thick smoke in the morning, and hesitates upon hard acceleration. It wasn't taken care of by previous owner and I've been less than stellar at maintenance, hence the engine swap. Properly taken care of though, and the thing will last you into the 200k mileage range and beyond. It's a Toyota, 'nuff said.
