I can only hope that the new 4-runner I'm getting this month has as few problems as the 86 Honda CRX that I've been driving for the last 13 years. I have accumulated over 354,000 miles on this car since new. There has been no engine work or transmission work done on the car, other than a water pump, three timing belts, a few valve adjustments, and a seal under the carb. Clutch replaced at 177,000 miles. Still gets over 45mpg. It is getting tired, but still dependable, and has never failed to start.
