Depends what you consider "great" service history. But I wouldn't pay more than 11K and that's very generous. I'm also partial to Limiteds though, an SR5 wouldn't really interest me much.

for a 2006 with a 180K I probably wouldn't go higher then $7K.
For a frame of reference.. I just recently acquired an 08 V6 SR5 with 134K for $6500.
Keep your eyes open and one will fall into your lap.

i have a 1997 for sale 180k
Depends on where you are. In front range Colorado, that 11K number sounds pretty close, maybe even optimistic. In the upper midwest, probably 7-8000, but they throw in the rust for free.
If you look on Craigs list in Denver, you'll find very few listed below 13,000. They hold their value really well here.

Basically depends on the area, cond, miles and if the dealer knows what they have. I found a dealer in NH that sells slightly worn vehicles(bumps, bruises, small mech items) for dirt cheap. So dealers like that slightly askew the pricing. You really can't give an exact price as these 4runners are all over the place with pricing.
I just found an 06 red limited v8 with 180,000 miles for 5600.00, yet a 06 limited in nh same color with 56k was 16500.
It all depends how you feel about it, cond, etc.. Sometimes you may pay more but it just may be the one.
I got my 08 limited at that place in NH, no body damage only needing some minor mech work for short money. I know he has about 7 4runners (sr5s, sports and limited. I think the highest price is 6500.00. I did see a black sr5 3 seat v8 there.
Good luck.

Thanks for all the inputs
Thanks guys for your inputs.
I'm going to look at it tomorrow and see how it looks, feels and drives and go from there. I'm little concerned with the high mileage even though I can see a full maintenance/repair history from Toyota dealership. Hope it won't require other major repairs soon. I do know it does need a timing belt/water pump service soon so I'll need to consider the cost of that.
But, I do know it's very hard to come across a rust-free, accident-free and well maintained V8 4WD so I may pull the trigger.

Future reference I would not consider a 4Runner that needs a timing belt and water pump change to have had "great" service history. That's something that should have been done a long time ago if they were maintaining the vehicle correctly. That job, brake calipers, and exhaust manifolds are all quite expensive if they need to be done. Ask me how I know.....

at 180k, it's just "due" for its second timing belt change... hopefully.
If it were me, and a 180k mile '06 v8 4x4 was at a dealership, I'd be asking for the timing belt and water pump to be replaced pre-delivery included in the asking price. I wouldn't drive off the lot under my ownership without those being done. I drove for 3 years half-doubting that the previous owner actually did the timing belt change and it's no way of living, lol.
Exhaust manifolds are a PITA and expensive. I'm finally pulling the trigger on that, and I'm just hoping it doesn't spiral into a $3000 and 3 week install adventure. Already at $1000 just getting headers and studs. Then I'm sure I'll be chasing CELs and headaches for a while.
Brake calipers wasn't bad at all for me though. I bought NAPA ones that are lifetime warranty and already painted black so they won't rust as easily. If they seize, I literally just exchange them as long as I own my vehicle. I double checked with the store owner and even explained that these tend to seize regularly. "No problem. Bring them back and get new ones. If those seize, bring those back too." Got speed bleeders and bled the brakes in my garage by myself.

Sorry I wasn't clear enough on timing belt/water pump - it was done at 90k miles so it'll be due again in the near future.

I searched a year before I found my 2004 V8 limited. I had to fly to Arizona to get it. Which is what I was looking for. Something that never saw moisture. It had 160,000 on it. One owner. Immaculate inside and out with all the history. If the guy farted in it. He had it maintained. I paid $8200. Very fair deal. That was 5 years ago now. Hard to find these clean not rusted out.

You all are making me pretty envious - in the northwest you simply cannot find clean V8 4th-gens for < 10k.
The first truck I had my eye on was an '08 Limited V8 4x4 with 132k. Second owner. He was asking $14,500 and it was sold before I had a chance to look at it.
I ended up getting a 2006 V8 Sport 4x4 (w/the hood scoop etc.), 170k on the clock. Immaculate body, immaculate interior, no rust. Dealer did front brakes (calipers, rotors, pads), and timing belt/water pump before purchase. Paid $13,500. I know, I know, that's pretty outrageous, but people want insane prices for their Toyota's out here.

I purchased an 07 Limited V8 with 175k odo in Richmond Va in May for $10,700. It was at a Toyota Dealership and they were asking $12k. It's all stock, 1 owner, garage kept, excellent maintenance per Carfax although they did delay the TB a little and replaced it at 103k odo. I had been looking for months and this was the cleanest inside and out by far. No rust underneath, no leaks, everything works properly.
The only small issue it does have the driveshaft clunk which I didn't pick up during the test drive but I'm not concerned about that.

I paid $11.5k for an 06 v8 4x4 a couple years back here Los Angeles.
160k on the engine and rust free. Originally from Arizona so the paint has seen better days but it doesn't bother me. When I was looking that was on par for what I was seeing. I had missed out on 3 others V8's that had sold the day after postings were listed on CL.
