****Dropped price to account for needing new tires within a year (per advice from a fellow forum member)****
The time has come to put my 4Runner up for sale. I recently got hold of a GX460 cos I am getting old and soft.
I bought this fella in 2012 w/ 112k on the clock. It has spent its entire life in AR (1st Owner and me) and TX (me). It has seen snow a couple of times in AR.
Vehicle has 265/75/R16 Yokohama Geolander A/Ts (will need replacing this year), matching spare that hasnt seen the road, and a 2.5” lift from Bilstein 5100 + OME Springs.
I have used the tow bar for the small-size U-haul trailer three times as I moved between AR and TX, aside from that only used for carrying a bike rack.
All parts used on this vehicle are OEM Toyota only (aside from shocks, springs, PCK, head unit, tow bar).
This vehicle is cosmetically not the prettiest but is mechanically perfect. I just drove from Austin to Big Bend and back without any issues. Took it down Old Ore Road, Pine Canyon, and some others while there. Photos show condition as-is, dusty from the desert.

I have tried to provide the most honest and detailed information on the vehicle that I can. If you have any further questions let me know, and I will be happy to discuss them!
If I was 10 years younger I would get it Line-X’d and slap on a Shrockworks front bumper…but like I said, I am old and soft now
