I have a 1998 4X4 with just over 100K miles, no major problems, and the minor ones have been self inflicted due to lack of maintenance. Hoping to install the new plugs and wires this weekend.
My uncle has one with around 300K, also with no major problems.
I think the 4.0 came out in 2005, frankly I don't think it is that much of an improvement. Maybe if you tow, but even then I towed my 85 Toyota 4X4 to Oklahoma with my Tacoma, and it also hauls the race car and trailer with no drama.
The newer Tacomas, 2005+ IIRC are a little larger and heavier. The earlier models are pretty much the same size as the last generation Toyota trucks, where the current Tacoma is about the same size as the T100.
Honestly, I like the smaller ones better.
