It was a GREAT $5500 truck but.....$9k? "Insane" is correct in my eyes.

I'd buy it

 

[SHUSH]

Agree thats awesome but id probably let Rob do a swap For me before buying an unknown shade trees.

Hmmmm 4 doors for kids would be nice.

 

[Nottajeep]

Only thing beter than 1 UZ is 3 UZ.

4 door with kids is a must... why did you sell the 100 again?

 

[SHUSH]

2 hour daily commute, new house, and 9 month cruiser ownership seems to be my trend

John. Get second gen with 4 doors. If mine were younger the two doors would kill me. Mine are 7 and 11 and can get in and out on their own if I was dealing with boosters and car seats it would be painful.

 

[SHUSH]

GREAT job fellas!!! now the wife has expanded the discussion BACK to 60 series with the 4 door issue.


SIGH...I had it all figured out....

 

[Bomar]

Get an 80 and be done with it. You and a 60 series will be as bad as the 40. Greg's 100 is the best turn key

 

[Bomar]

80s are cheaper than 60s in current market

 

[SHUSH]

80s are the one series I just never really liked......

Bomar, anything I buy will A. run well or
B. go to Rob for anything beyond a dome light bulb change

Whatever 4 Runner has the 3.4 V6

Best motor ever. Power and mileage.

3rd Gen (96-2002). I'm partial, but they are great trucks and in the current market, a good one could be had for $5-$6k

 

[Fireman]

They did have a v8 for a few years.

They did have a v8 for a few years.

I believe the V8s were and option in the 4th generation 4Runners. My 3rd gen, 1998 (w/ 3.4 liter V6), is by far the most mechanically reliable Toyota 4x4 I have ever owned. It has 275K miles on routine maintenance and still gets 20+/- on the highway. It has bounced, back and forth, between my dad and me since I bought it in 1999 with 55K miles.

 

[wngrog]

The 3.4 gets better mileage than the 22re

 

[Bomar]

2nd Gen suck with the way the rear window and tailgate. Go 3rd Gen all day
