'96 4Runner - Should I purchase???

I was thinking of purchasing this vehicle, what do you guys think??


"96 4x4 6 cyl 139k, Limited, Leather, Sunroof, Tow Package.Here is a list of new parts installed this year- New pads, rotors, alignment, sway bar links, new tires (265-75-16) and black cragar rims, shocks, struts, belts, alternator, battery, trans fluid / filter ect. This truck is ready for the next 100k, dont believe me look on e-bay @ the mileage these trucks get.While you are on e-bay check out the prices, Toyotas are not cheap but this one is. I bought it 16 months ago for $7,000 and put close to $2,000 in to it $5900 is a bargain."

it looks like it's in great shape. Is there anything that I could expect to replace in the near future? How many miles can I expect to get out of this thing?

Thanks everyone

Sounds good to me. I wouldn't expect anything to go wrong with it.

When it says belts...you better make sure that includes the timing belt and water pump...

Assuming it was taken care of, it shouldn't give you any trouble. It all depends on that though, if the preventative maintenance was done at the proper intervals (or done at all). A good question to also ask is whether it was used to tow with as that can cause things to wear out faster obviously.

Good Luck
