OEM Toyota Alternator

I had to do my alternator a year or so ago in my 07. Considering I got like 240k miles and ten years off the original I went ahead and replaced it with a Toyota OEM one.

Pros: OEM replacement
Vehicle: Toyota
Mileage: 386242 km

I run it in my 2010 Tundra. after much research and not wanting to spend the $$ on overpriced toyota branded coolant I swapped out the system when I hit 100k (Valvoline asian). That was maybe two years ago. 30k miles later no issues.

Pros: no issues, reliable performance

Rating 5.0

I use Rain‑X® Latitude® Water Repellency 2-n-1 Wiper Blades on my 2012 Prius. I highly recommend both of these. They last a long time, never streak, and clear water off really well.

Pros: last a long time, never streak

Duralast Alternator

Right on schedule, about 7 months later, that reman also went out and I decided to pay more to get the Duralast Gold which is all new. That one lasted about a year and a half but then the bearings went out on it, but I don't think that issue was the alternator's fault because after I replaced it, I found out the Harmonic Balancer had lost its integrity and was wobbling a little. Again, not sure what caused what (did the bearings put extra pressure on the aging balancer or did the balancer go out and damage the alternator?), but all I can say is that since replacing the harmonic balancer and using the Duralast Gold alternator, I have not had any issues for over 2 years now.

Pros: lasted a year and a half
Cons: bearings went out
Vehicle: Toyota

2017 Tacoma headlights are crap. The HID projectors on my 2006 VW blow the Tacoma's halogen projectors out of the water.

Cons: crap
