    Winter Beater

    I think i really need a 4x4 vehicle because i have to drive in the weather. I need it long term so i think a vehicle would serve a long term use. How good are the 2000 4runners compared to the 2006?

    Winter Beater

    I never thought about that, i thought about a 4 wheeler but snowmobile would be a good idea if i could find one cheap enough but i doubt they are cheap. I like having a 4wd to pull and haul stuff just not much off roading like my younger days. Subie's i hear are great in snow but ground...

    I found the same year with 86k but it has tan interior and is not a sport. This one has brand new wheel and tire package, aftermarket projector headlights and headunit.

    On the market again for a 4runner. Need your advice

    I sold my 04 SR5 4x4 about 8 months ago with 100k miles. I was thinking about buying an 06 with 122k miles. It is the sport model. The dealership wanted 15000 but i talked them down to 13800. Does that sound like a good deal to you guys? I was trying to find a used one in that price range with...

I bought a set of pads, had my mechanic change the pads the left side was where the problem was so once we took it off one of the pistons...

    Musty smell inside 4runner

    Yeah it's hard to tell i don't live near the beach or in those areas so it's hard to tell what kind of weather would affect the vehicle.
