I am in the market for my first Land Cruiser. It will mainly serve as a family vehicle. We do not live in the mountains, nor do we do any off-roading. We make a couple road-trips a year, with the occasional camping trip. Other than increasing altitude on our way to camping, not many hills or inclined streets for our driving. Just need something to get the job done. I'd like to get 4 years out of it. I prefer the A440F tranny, so I'm looking for a '91-'94. I have $5000 for a purchase and potential repairs. Below are some options in my area. All of them have decent interior/exterior, no major mechanical issues that I could detect, and clean carfaxes. Which do you suggest and why?

'91 1-owner with 190k mi for $3500.

'94 4-owner with 225k mi for $5000.

'94 3-owner with 276k mi for $3500.

Sapo,

I get to be the first to say :flipoff2: Welcome!!!

The obvious first choice, based on limited info is the one owner, 190K. BUT, this is not enough to make the decision. You need to find out if any of them have had any maintenance. Sometimes, a one owner vehicle is the last one you want....
Are they all the same over all condition?
Do any of them have lockers?
Mods?

Can you give us the links to the ads, or some pics?

Good luck with the purchase. They are great vehicles. And you can get a lifetime out of it, if you start with the right one, and maintain it properly.
