correct me if I'm wrong (Texan rust virgin here) but if the interior of the frame is rusty and ready to go at any moment, you should be able to use a screwdriver to poke the frame in various places and tell that way.

Another buddies 2002 Sport Limited in Omaha. It's possible to keep them immaculate in Omaha. Frame and wheels are perfect. Hitch now has a little rust. It's a DD all seasons.

Lol. No offense, but I've seen plenty of people who have described their undercarriage as "perfect" and it has been a very loose interpretation of the word.

I understand the doubt. I sold both a 1988 Land Cruiser and a 1993 Land Cruiser to buyers from the west coast. It took a lot of convincing to get people to believe they were rust free. It can be done with great care and effort. I found the black 2002 4Runner and I would not have had the buyer look at if it wasn't solid. Probably the nicest 3rd gen I have ever seen as old as it is.

UPDATE:
The 4Runner is scheduled for repairs. Going in the shop March 18th. the owner is going to repair and sell at a loss. But more importantly the 4Runner will be back on the road making someone happy. It sat outside for weeks, facing into a north wind and thru several snow storms and a couple of sub-zero polar vortexes that lasted for days. Finally I couldn't stand it any longer and asked the owner for the keys, cleared off the snow and ice and took it for a drive. It started right up like it had just been driven.

Seriously, just a little bit of care can go a long way in areas south of the 45th parallel. Honestly, even Chicago doesn't get that much salt application compared to further north, but people just won't take their cars in for a bath two or three times in the winter.

There's not much behind that bumper. I'd offer 2000-2500. If you can get it at that price it's a steal even with the miles. Fix it up and you will have a super reliable nice 4Runner. Looks super clean.
