Can you guys do me a favor and give me an idea of what my 4Runner might be worth. I've had it for 7 months, its run flawlessly, but I simply need a pickup truck. I purchased it with 152,000 miles and it currently has 159,800 miles. I routinely get 280-300 miles per fill-up and 17-18mpg in mixed driving. I've gone as far as 340 miles on a tank and 20+mpg on the highway. Its a nice truck but just doesn't fit my need right now.

Here's what it will need:
- tires are getting thin, but I don't want to put new ones on because tire choice is a very personal thing and a new owner will want to put on their favorites.
- interior needs a good shampooing. I'm not a detailer, but some scrubbing of the carpets will make a nice difference.
- rear wiper does not work. I haven't looked into it so I don't know if its the motor or switch.
- I removed the rear bumper in order to build one but haven't has the time yet. I will either put the old bumper back on(its a bit rusty)or fab up a new tube one soon.

Since you guys have your finger on the pulse of the 4Runner market, can you give me an idea what a fair asking price would be for my truck? Its nice and clean underneath and has no mechanical issues.

Thanks,

Dan

Here it is after the Bilsteins and new springs.
Inexpensive coil spring replacements and Bilsteins

Since adding the new shocks and springs, I added 1.5" Daystar spacers to the rears. It gives it a bit of "rake" and removed the running boards. Looks totally different.

I'll take a few pictures today when/if it stops raining.

So its a 2001 4x4? Might want to just list that when you sell it.

Yes, its a 4x4 and automatic.

I'll give u 5 cash

I would accept Champs offer and not look back. Not sure what you paid for it, but you're not going to get anymore than 5k.
Matter of fact, I was going to post 5k before I even saw Champs reply.

5k, no haggling, no stupid people test driving... Take it bro.

I would start with the KBB value. Its a good starting point for any vehicle. Not sure what the above comment is about, but even if you considered it in "fair" condition KBB values your truck at $6050, and I think you could get more than $5. "Good" conditon is almost $7000. Since yours will need new tires soon, and as you mentioned you have some rust on the bumper I would lean closer to "fair". If I were you I would ask $6500 OBO. You did some good maintenance which will carry the truck a long way for a future buyer, so that helps. I got my 98 SR5 with 161k miles for $6k even. It didnt have any rust, but the tires had about %40 left, and it needed maintenance work done. And in CO that was a really good price.

I agree with the $6500 obo. I got my 99 SR5 with 160k and newer tires for $5500.
