No doubt! Probably avoid more markups when buying from a private party. I got my current 2002 4Runner Sport in May 2020 for $4,000 with 230k miles. Luckily the owner was just trying to get rid of it so they could get a car for their daughter. Felt like a bargain.

Certainly not. Just sharing in hopes that it would find a good home!

I've been following the OP listing for a while now. No way would I pay that. They aren't far from where I live in case my '02 craps out. However I wouldn't care for it to be restored and would like to take one from them before they polish the paint and change out the blinker fluid.... Also just...

Overland Build-2000 Toyota 4runner - cars & trucks - by owner -... Wow.

Need this

Also, “installed” Weathertech floor mats.

New tires. 265/75/16. No rub! Stock 02

Got some new BFG All Terrains on my stock 2002 Sport. No rub. Very pleased so far.

Looks great! What kind of shop did you take it to? Did you just have them basically do rust repair? Pricey? Looking into this for mine as well and am curious.

Cleaned up. New wiper blades are the only thing I changed so far. And a tank of gas.

Looks great! Do you have a link for that replacement?

Good. Then I can get them to replace the rear bumper that’s all dinged up from the previous owners wife. Out of the million rust prevention videos- is there one you recommend? Same basic process I’ve seen. Wire brush or grind out rust. Some type of rustoleum rust stopper. Maybe primer. Maybe...

Welp, I am now the new owner of a 2002 Sport Edition Thundercloud Metallic. I went and looked at it this morning and bought it. Its in really good shape and gave me no mechanical doubts on the 200 mile drive home. 30k miles past due for the timing belt....but oh well. Thanks to everyone who...

I'm seeing it tomorrow morning. I'll bring a flashlight, wire brush, and a hammer to tap around. My investigative nature shows me that looking at the frame holes - the thickness is still there. Meaning it doesn't look to be thinning on the other side. Or maybe not...who really knows. The one...

I think it's at least worth a drive to see it in person. Tap around myself and get a feel. Asking $4500 but I can probably knock $500 off because she said its 30k past timing belt service. It's an older lady so I feel bad having her crawl around to snap these pics. Here is the actual vehicle.
