Almost identical to the one we bought this July except ours is silver. Ours has around 126k on it. The high mileage isn't so scary when you consider, it's a Toyota. I've heard plenty of people say on here that they expect these things to run at least 300k miles, and I wouldn't expect any less out of a Toyota. They're good trucks. If you're worried about the mileage, there are plenty of 40-60k miles 2004s out there, but you're going to be paying closer to 17-19k for one with such low mileage. Also, if you think about it, most of those miles are probably highway miles to have gotten so high in just 6 years...

So, of course, having recently bought pretty much the same 4runner, I say go for it. =)

it might be good idea to ask for the maintenance records but even without them the car looks good, I wouldn't worry too much about the mileage, but it is something i would use to knock the price down. good luck

IMO the price is high. I realize it's a year newer, but I got my 03 4x4 v8 Limited, loaded with every option availble (everything from heated leather, navigation, and rear air suspension) and 120k miles for $11,900 out the door. This was from a dealer, and also included maintenance records. When I was shopping, I found several in the 120-130k range with the 4.0 for $11-12k. They do bring more in other regions, so that may be a good deal where you're at, but around here (Arkansas) that'd be a little high. As for the 4runner itself, looks good, I'd just try to get that price down.

4runners are HIGH in AL, I had to pay my aunt $11K for my '03 with 119K (v6 4x2 limited in mint condition w/ all dealership maint records) not as loaded as yours ARK. We originally had it worked out at $10K (or less depending on how much her new 4runner was) until she talked to a dealer The dealership offered her $13K (trade-in) and told her she could sell it privately for $14K easy and that they could sell it for $15-16K.

I think you might get it a little cheaper but the demand for 4runners in this state is amazing and based on what I saw when I was looking, it's a deal if it's in good condition.

Use the VIN and log onto the Toyota website to check dealer maintenance.
