Reliability
Most people believe that Toyota’s reliability scores stem from good quality materials and design. While that is true to some extent, it is not the main reason why these old vehicles were so reliable. What made them last for so long was their simplicity and under-stressed components. It is a well-known fact that Toyotas of the past and even the present lack the amenities and technology of other vehicles.
This isn’t because Toyota doesn’t want to include those technologies, but rather because the engineers know that complicated additions reduce a vehicle’s lifespan. Also, Toyota engineers focused on building larger displacement engines that produced less power. This means that the internals were put under lower forces; therefore, lasting for many years.
