HILUX DURABILITY

Hi you guys!
I am looking for some input on the famous Hilux durability with regards to Toyota's claim of being UNBREAKABLE!
It would be great, if you could share your experience with your Hilux - e.g. how long has it been running without any major problems (km/years)? What parts cause problems after a while?
Looking forward to your replies!
Cheers

Have owned a number of hiaces an hiluxes ( they share a lot more parts than people realise, and basically all have been reliable and solid. Best I got was 1,000,022 k ot of an rh20 hiace worst was 490,000 k from a yn60 series hi lux.
Basically depends on how you treat them but definetly better put together than most of its competition, and always has better resale value in the trade.
