SOLD: 3rd GEN 2001 4wd, No flaking rust! Only 95k miles. Seattle. $$$

I’m asking $18,500 to start with. If you’re going to bash, please move on.

Light surface rust in some areas, not the flaking rust you see on some of the 3rd generation Runners.

Only 95k miles! (Avg 5,000 per year)
Second owner (age 52). Now we have a minivan.

Radiator... replaced pro-actively, before any problems (18k miles ago, OEM)
Lower ball joints… replaced pro-actively before any problems (18k miles ago, OEM)
Timing belt, water pump, tensioner done (18k miles ago, 90k interval)

10 years of service receipts
Synthetic oil since 47k, 4k approximate OCI oil-change interval

4WD and center diff lock engage every time
Gets 23 MPG highway if I keep the speed to 65 MPH
(cleaning the MAF and one tank of Chevron seemed to help, and maybe this one has the better axle ratio)

Skid plate bolts (all 9)… are now stainless steel, and the receiving threads are perfect.
Skid plates are clean. When I do oil and filter changes, I remove the skid plates. (Same goes with the area below the oil filter - I stuff a rag under there beforehand.)

Many factory option upgrades:

Sunroof / Moonroof with Power Tilt or Slide, sun shade. (No leaks.)
Leather sport seats
Remote control rear window (great at the grocery store) with 2 key fobs
Fog lights

Dunno if these are standard or upgrades:
Cruise control
Intermittent front and rear wipers
16" Alloy wheels
13" heavy-duty front brakes

Serious about seeing it? Please send your phone number and whether you prefer TEXT or VOICE. Feel free to PM me with any questions. I have more pictures. I hate to see it go, and I’m in no rush. (Our minivan is ok.) I will consider serious offers.


--- copy/paste of Craigslist ad ---
(geared to the general public, but does have more details)

Hi - This is the popular "3rd gen. T4R" but WITHOUT ALL THE FRAME RUST. (Some of these have flaking frame rust from salted roads.) 10 years of receipts - oil changes, etc. done regularly.

This one has rarely seen snow/salt - CARFAX HISTORY: "Seattle." When it does snow (rarely), I rinse the underside asap to get rid of the road de-icer.

Second owner (age 52). Now we have a minivan.

It's clean (detailed, no pets or perfumes, non-smokers).
No mold/mildew odor from heater or A/C.

100% original / stock, no modifications
Only 95k miles! (Avg 5,000 per year)
Only 18k miles on timing belt (90k interval)
Only 6k miles on tires

Legendary, durable 5VZ-FE 3.4L V6 engine
23 MPG Hwy - if kept to 65 mph
Owner’s manual calls for regular 87 octane gas. Saves $ at the pump.
Strong engine. Previous owner converted to synthetic oil at 47k and I stayed with that and a 4k OCI oil-change interval. (10k is common with synthetic but I wanted the engine to last a really long time.)

Automatic transmission
Push-button 4WD (4H/4L/AWD/center diff. lock. Some 4Runners are rear wheel drive only.)
Locking center differential, for when more traction is needed!
Vehicle stability control (VSC), Active traction control, ABS anti-lock brakes, airbags

Many factory option upgrades:

SUNROOF / Moonroof with Power Tilt or Slide, sun shade. (No leaks.)
LEATHER, Sport seats
Remote control rear window
Fog lights
16" Alloy wheels

Adjustable seat height and lumbar support for driver’s lower back
Cruise control
Tight turn radius, Easy in parking lots - just 71" wide

13" heavy-duty front brakes
Only 6k miles on tires
Full-size spare tire, in good condition

Factory tinted windows
Rear split folding seats
4 power outlets (3 in front, 1 by the back door)

High-tech (haha!) CD and Cassette Tape player (original) Still works!
This T4R does NOT have the problematic digital heater controls.

Full disclosure:
(Normal for 95k miles.) A few scratches here and there, underside has a few areas of light surface rust (not the flaking frame rust you see on some 3rd generation 'Runners), driver's seat has small torn area on the side, little 3" center hubcaps look terrible (the paint didn't stick too well), original Toyota floor mats - the driver's mat has a small hole worn in it.

Dimensions, cargo:
With back seats folded down, Straight measurement: 67" (5' 7") Diagonal: 79" (6' 7")
Diagonal, driver side back door to front passenger dashboard: 120" (10' 0")

Just serviced
Includes 10 years of service records
Includes locking car-top carrier (if you want) and center brake light flasher
No leaks! Everything works!

Feel free to bring your mechanic friend! Carfax history: 2nd owner, no accidents, no salvage, no rebuild, no floods, no theft, no open recalls, clean title. I can provide the full Carfax report or VIN.

For your safety and mine, let’s do the final transaction at a branch of YOUR BANK or CREDIT UNION. (Wire transfer or bank check in exchange for the truck title and keys.)

Serious about seeing it? Please send YOUR PHONE NUMBER and whether you prefer TEXT or VOICE. Let me know if you have any questions. I have more pictures. I hate to see it go, and I’m in no rush. (Our minivan is ok.) I will consider serious offers.

Great looking rig, appears you and the previous owner fiercely maintained it. I hope you get what you’re asking for!
