What buyers say

Reputation: what owners and the press report

Sought after: 22R-E four All years One source so far

Two members of an IH8MUD thread about a 1989 Pickup prefer the 22R-E four to the V6, and one calls it tops for a gasoline engine. A third reports 20 to 22 mpg from theirs.¹
Avoid: 3.0L V6 All years Less sought after

Of the two IH8MUD members who prefer the four, one says the V6 burns more fuel and costs more to fix, and the other hates working on it for lack of room. Toyota ran a head gasket campaign for it.^1,2
