Thanks I will be sure to steer towards a V8 or 06+ vintage.

Thanks. Just trying to make a educated decision before I purchase one.

Nice. Just wondering if a guy is better off looking for a V8. I have a 99 4runner with 270K miles trouble free. I want to stick with a V6 as I do not tow and the V8 models are considerably more expensive around me.

I am upgrading to a newer 4th gen 4runner and keep hearing alot about the V6 Head Gasket issues. I am currently looking at a 2004 4runner and a 2005 4runner both with around 130K miles and V6. Should I just completely avoid the V6 of this vintage or is this not a common enough problem to consider? .

Sorry it is a SR5 model it just has Leather interior and Color matched Fender Flares so I assumed.

He showed me Dealer records dating back over 100K miles. The truck was always dealer maintained and at 200K miles the dealer put a rebuilt tranny and rear end in it and just last month put a new clutch in.

I found a 2000 4runner Limited 5 speed manual 4wd for sale by me. Its very clean and came from Texas. The guy just put a new clutch and tires on it. My question is how much should I pay for it? He's asking $4500 but it has 256K miles on it which seems very very high but it's in very nice shape.

Hi guys I sold my 4runner earlier this year and very much miss it! So I am looking for a new one minus all the rust ;) 99-00 must be a 5 Speed 4wd 3.4L. I would love it to have a E-locker but asking for a 5 speed is already a tall order. Not to picky on Color or options at this point just...

What Brand/Type did you go with Bufferdan?

Fair enough, just want to give it the longest life possible =)

I heard a couple people say to use the Blend type Quaker State Defy 5w-30

So I just purchased a 1999 White SR5 4runner 5 speed Manual 4wd with 190K miles on it for $3,000. It has been running regular 5W-30 and I want to switch to Full synthetics. What are your guys thoughts?
