That mis-shift IS a very common problem. It overrevs to something like 14 or 16 thousand.... I don't TOO many cars that can handle that. But, of course, Toyota's not perfect... I think they just have extremely well done engines overall.

We had an old 4 Runner that was about to turn 300k miles... ran like f'n new.
