Loving cars and not enough money

Hey Scotty from watching your videos I it makes me think of my cars. So let's start with the newest one:

2014 Toyota Sequoia 5.7 4x4, I bought it like 2 years ago and it had 87,000 miles. As soon as I had the chance I changed the fluids I did, aka engine oil, antifreeze, transmission fluid, transfer case fluid, and diff fluid. Also I changed the serpentine belt and all 8 spark plugs (the last two towards the firewall where a pain), air filter and caben filter. The milage now is like 97,000 not a lot of driving mostly family car. So on the sequoia should I need to look out for anything that is known to failure? 

2011 Toyota Tacoma Xrunner v6 manual, this one you will kinda hate because I did buy it from a salvage yard. The entire driver side was smashed and I fixed it to almost new condition had about 127,000 miles and now it's at 190,000. The engine runs great however the transmission is a different story. When the truck is cold it grinds into 3rd gear. When it worm up it seem like all the synchronizers are good until after driving for a while then when going from 1st to 2nd it grinds. Also when reving up in the high rpms it will grind from 2nd all the way to 6th. I think I need to rebuild it but that will be at a later time when I make it a weekend truck and not a daily. But for now is there anything else those trucks have problems with?

And last car is the 1999 Lexus Gs300 which we talked about and will ask more as I work on it.

Thank you,

Well they are great vehicles but once they smashed in that bad who knows what kind of damage could occur to the wiring or frame or whatever but they don't have any particular problems
