1996 4Runner advise
To All,
I am looking at a 1996 4Runner, 107k, Limited, 2WD for sale. I have two questions.
1) Anything to look for with the 1996 year (head gasket?)
2) It the 4Runner is in good shape, how much is it worth?
Sorry, no pics to share.
Thanks.
Steve

I've got a 96 Limited 4x4 for sale with the rear locker and 4.30 gears... i'm asking $8000 but i've got 2 people seriously looking at it right now, but If it doesn't work out and you don't mind the drive to NC.. it's an awesome 4runner.

You are going to have to decide how much it is worth. Take KBB, NADA, private party (in your area) value, lump them all together and average them out. That is the "going rate" for that vehicle.
I personally would never buy a 2WD due to a number of reasons; including my needs and resale. But that's just me. Many people don't need 4WD at all.
If I could do it all over again, I would go for a 98+ with strong emphasis on a 99 and above. But, if cost is an issue, there is nothing wrong with owning a nice 96+
