Sick,
Looks like a real nice 4Runner. I like the Highlander package.
Last month I paid less than 20k for a 99 Limited for the wife.
It has 55k miles and came with a the Toyota certified
6 year 100K warranty. It is bone stock and has no mods.
That may give you something to compare with.
Hope you get good one.

wow, you can tell a good amount of money was put into that. But why would you want to buy an "already built up" rig? Unless you're just gonna use it on the street like he did, then that's cool, but if you're gonna wheel it, I'd buy a stocker and build it up yourself. That's the fun part!

i'd ask the seller if he had the TSB EL010 done and at what mileage. i just am having a hard time believing that the mileage for a 4 yr old vehilce is only 50k.
typically, the owner's mileage will be reset to zero if the chip in the instrument cluster is replaced. there is a procedure to have the true original mileage remain in place, but most dealers are too lazy (IMHO) to go through the trouble.

"Best looking 4Runner you can find"
huh, I didn't know my rig was for sale
seems like a deal if it is still available at 20K
heres a comp,
my 2000, 5spd sr5 black with 38K in January was 19,499
I've put at least 5K into it...
I say go for it!
