Looking into purchasing a 4runner!
Hey guys my names Cory and i've poked around the forum for a while checking out some of the cool trucks you all got here... and i've finally decided i like the body and the style of the 1st generation (if thats what its called) 4runners and would like to start my hunt.
So i am new to toyotas completely and...
First, I understand some of these have 200k+ miles which kind of screams reliable to me but i may be wrong.. What should i look for when buying a 4runner? What are some of the obvious things i need to watch for if i dont want to break the bank?
Secondly, how are these for towing? I will be towing boats that range from 16'-19 feet in length. I assume they can handle that...
Lastly, gas mileage? I'm 16 years old and make a whopping 8.50 an hour.. and don't want to deal with crappy gas mileage.. obviously i'm looking at the 4cyl. if i get 17 i can deal haha if i dont get 17 are there things i can do to actually notice a difference such as air filter, etc
Thanks for all the help in advance
