I have been toying with swapping out from a F150 to Toyota. I have the 3.5 liter EcoBoost, always been happy with the EcoBoost as I had a 2011 and now a 2021. The only issue is I don't view them as a 200k mile engine...turbos on these smaller engines are not a heavy duty turbo and I know many folks that have had theirs go out. I am at 106k miles and getting nervous about issues starting to pop up.

I don't really need a truck anymore and really like the new 4 runners, only issue is the new turbo 4 cylinder has had issues. Curious if anyone with one in a Tacoma or 4 runner has any first hand experience. My preference would be get a low mileage 2024 4 runner with the proven V6, but prices I have been seeing I can get a brand new one at around the same price as a 2024 with a better rate on the loan.

Curious if anyone can chime in on experience with the new 25-26 Toyota engines?
 
The reason 24s command a premium is it’s not hard to see the durability advantage of the old V6. No personal experience with the new turbo engines because I saw them coming and filled the garage/driveway with real Toyotas:). Seems many are willing to accept 100k miles as an acceptable lifespan on a new vehicle theses days. I much prefer scheduled maintenance to unforeseen repairs.
