Buy and pay off a Toyota.

I’ll add to this by simply saying once said Toyota is paid off then don’t sell it and repeat the process.

Why?

Because the best car payment is no car payment.

My FIL recently gave my gf and I a 1993 Toyota 4Runner. That thing is 33 years old, as was not given to use in the most optimal condition.

Still use it for commute everyday, spend like only 15liters of gas every week for commuting, still can tow a friend, and it sure as hell still can go to my FIL's farm 1 hour away.

A Toyota is for the whole life.

Generally, yes. Tacomas in particular are built for 1,000,000 miles. Look it up.

Doesn't mean they won't need work. But if you keep up with maintenance and repairs, they will go the distance.

The longer you keep one reliable vehicle, the better your finances.
