I have 231,000 on my 93 4Runner and it seems to run great, keeping my fingers crossed and doin' the maint.

 

1990 4runner 3vze, replaced motor at 302,xxx
1988 4runner 22re, has 192,xxx but not originial motor

 

My 93 has 238000 on it now , and still running strong , the 85 had around 380000, and its still running around

 

I just a bought a '91 Runner from a guy with 305k on the odometer for $2500.

The door jamb sticker says I should be using a 225/75 tire, and there are 31s on it, so the mileage is a little off, pretty close to 300k (285k?) though.

Guy I bought it from said it was the original engine. I know the head gasket recall was performed on this vehicle. The sticker in my engine says the timing belt was last changed at 274k. She purrs like a kitten.

I consistently drive this thing at 65mph. I live at 6800 feet and she runs well. If this thing lasts me through the end of winter I will be happy.

 

234000 miles. All that has been replaced is water pump and rear pumpkin. Gotta love it...

 

my 93 4runner has over 220,000 on it and still runs like new.always garage kept though.

 

Well, I guess I'll add to this really old thread. My 95 4Runner only has 163k miles and it runs pretty good for a 3.0. I did the head gaskets and timing belt last winter. It doesn't leak or burn any oil yet and I'll be happy if it gets me to 200k.

 

I have 1998 toyota 4runner that I bought with 12 miles on it. It now has 678,000 miles on it. Same timing chain, same motor, and same transmission. Only changed out the drive shaft u joint 3 times. Changed out the rear wheel bearing 2 times. Will post pictures shortly... Re filled the freon for air conditioning @ 600,000 miles. Changed out the fuel pump @ 500,000...
Still going strong as my work car.....Takes 10w 30 motor oil. It does leak oil and transmission fluid but I just fill it up when I service it...
I wonder does toyota give out a reward for 1 million??

Hello,

I am trying to decide whether to buy a 2006 4x4 4 runner which has a 4 in lift, a roof rack and is the limited edition with 165k miles on it for $10,700 or to buy a stock 2005 4x4 4 runner with 135k miles for 10,700 as well. What is better? Does the difference in 30k miles make that much of a difference? Both vehicles have been consistently been maintained and serviced. Please let me know.

1999 4Runner Limited 4x4 249,000 miles and still runs, drives and looks new! besides general maintenance, I have replaced the the Alternator and evaporator and valve cover gaskets. All else is original.

 

You guys all have baby miles haha.

There is a thread around somewhere dealing with the milage bragging rights.

My 92 3.0 has 309000 original miles. Just did a full fluid change and inspection and everything looks great in the trans, tcase and diffs. The motor purrs like a kitten. I drove it last summer through CA, NV, NM, AZ, OR, WA, and ID. Several hundred miles of those were offroad. I have no worries doing long distances or going in the back country all by myself. I'm confident she'll make it back every time.

I'm thinking on a diesel swap once she goes over 400k.

 

My '99 has 382,000 on it. All original drivetrain

 

About 10 years ago I had a 91 4runner, 3.0, that I rolled into 500,000km. So that's 310,000ish miles. Most of it was stock as far as I could tell.

Sold it to a buddy that got it up to 510,000km I think before blowing one of the head gaskets.

 

Just hit 378,500 miles on my 1988 SR5 3.0 v6. of course my head gasket just blew. Should have been paying closer attention. I noticed some smoke when cold last winter and just figured it was crappy gas.
I've been struggling the last 2 weeks trying to decide what to do. Head gaskets are beyond my ability and out of my price range.
May donate to a children's charity but they will most likely part her out and that does not sit well with me. Everything else is in great condition. Anyone want a solid base for a project? (in the Seattle area)
