Should I buy one of these 4runners?

Hey,

I'm thinking about buying one of these 4runners are they worth it as daily drivers?

they both seem to be about the same condition... so 4200 for the second and 3500 for the first... the second has a body lift on it and custom / non-stock wheels and tires, the first looks stock
so is the second worth 700 more than the first? probably.

I'd go with the first and if you want a lift eventually do it right and do a suspension lift and no body lift, the second one looks like its spray painted and kinda ghetto lol

Don't know that I would call a 4runner a gas saver, but I suppose they are better than many 4x4's. I've always preferred buying mostly stock vehicles and upgrading myself (of course thats only if you have the means to do so). I've known people who buy modified vehicles that are a wreck, not to mention they've beat the hell out of them. I'm not saying thats the case here, it could be the complete opposite. I'm just saying, chances are the stock one could be in a little bit better shape. Just look over them both really good and you should be fine. You could buy the first one take that $700 savings and get rid of any rear end sag and put some aggressive 31's on it and be good to go.
