Does anyone have first hand information on a pre-runner with 2.7 engine?
I'd like to know if this is as long life engine like the 22R or 2.4. What
kind of fuel mileage could you expect with it in a pre-runner w/ auto?

Any pitfalls to watch for?

I bought a 98 2.7 prerunner in March '98 . It is not a quick acceleratin
truck as prerunners came with 31x10.50 tires and only automatic. It was
great truck and ran trouble free for us until may 06 when we traded it fo
a new prerunner. the old truck had 155,000 miles and no sign of an
problems. Fuel mileage was between 18 and 21 most always. My son in la
has an '02 double cab prerunner with a 2.7 with 97,000 miles and i
totally trouble free and gets about 18 to 21 mpg, I own a 2000 prerunne
with a v-6 driven easily I get between 18 and 19 city and 22 to 23 hiwa
and and have no problems with power that we always experienced with th
2.7. If you dont mind leisurly acceleration the 2.7 in my opinion i
better engine than the old 22R and that says alot. I would not hesitate t
by a truck with a 2.7 if that is what you can find. It is a great engin
and will serve well with proper maintanence.
