    2nd or 3rd generation used.. which to buy?

    is there a way i can gauge if the deals I am seeing are good. I had a 99 back in the day.. but now i see such a range of prices. Of course i know theres no one answer depending on mileage, condition, model. I guess maybe if someone has seen what they feel is a good deal let me know...

    2nd or 3rd generation used.. which to buy?

    Ready to turn in sequoia as i cant afford payment anymore.. so looking at a 97-02 4runner. I know things changed in 99... but are these years (99-02) better than and worth the extra $$ than say a 97 or 98? I see some nice 97's and 98's for sale near me but want to do the right thing here...
