Faults:

Door ajar warning always when you open the driver's door, and it can stay on for hours even when the door is definitely closed.

This is a very fuel efficient and fun to drive little truck. However, I really wish that it wasn't so gutless from 3 gear and up. When you mash the throttle to the floor in 5th gear, the speedo barely moves at all.

When I put a Flowmaster and K&N cold air intake in it, it definitely helped, but it doesn't do much on the top end when you are getting up to highway speeds.

That said, it is a great daily driver, it handles well on all surfaces and nothing has gone wrong. Its great to travel in besides for the lack of cruise control, and it is really solid with no squeaks and rattles.

The only thing that drives me nuts is how the door beeper can stay on for so long and not go off. I hope to have it taken out though. Also the windshield wipers in my truck seem to have a mind of their own.

Faults:

Replaced timing belt at 168000.

General Comments:

Very dependable, but weak 4 cylinder engine.

I flipped this truck over and it was still running on its side. Then when we rolled it back over, I drove it home.

Very reliable seeing how this truck was never regularly maintained.

I bought this truck for $500 and the transmission cost me $1200. But now it drives like its brand new and gets OK gas mileage. So I figure that I just bought a reliable truck for $1700.

I am going to keep this truck until it dies or is totaled.

It is still my daily driver and my commute is 65 miles a day.

Faults:

Nothing.

General Comments:
