I'm in the market for a new 4th gen for the wife and I was wondering if the 4.0V6 is gonna last as long as the 3.4. We all know the 3rd gen runners/taco's will make it 300k with average maintenance.

Does anyone have any 1st hand experience with 4th gen's lasting well into the 200k range or even into the 300k's?

I'm looking at runners with about 100k on them and am hoping they're barely broke in at that mileage like thier 3rd gen brethren.

Thanks in advance,
Joe

 

Really? No one? Not even "my friends cousins uncle had one go 500k"?

 

You'd be better asking this at Toyota120.com

 

Thanks Scuba,

I didn't know about that site. Its definitely going in my bookmarks.

 

We have 92k on our 04 v8 4runner.

All it has needed so far is front brake pads, tires, and oil changes. Well, the V8's horrible oil filter location requires skid plate removal for oil changes, and a couple of those skid plate bolts have rusted and broken off and need to be removed and replaced. Other than that, it's been great, as with the 2 other 4runners we have had.

I can't see why a properly maintained one wouldn't go 300k without issues.

Heck, I've gotten over 400k on broncoII's with no major issues.
