Sounds great everyone. I can't wait to get and get started.

I agree, even from an outside looking in perspective. I have always wanted a suv because of the comfort, versatility, and capabilities and have enjoyed the ride being in this one and their other one (2001 Limited) and can;'t wait to own it. On a side note, does anyone have any idea to what %...

Oh no doubts whatsoever. I'm going this weekend to check it out and do some driving around in it and if everything works out it will be bought next week.

I am starting to see that. I am glad that this site exists for newbies such as myself because I was skeptical about the 4Runner, having never owned one or a suv for that matter.

Oh I will deff be cleaning it up. It's nothing major just hasn't been cleaned in a while and with her kids and a crazy german sheppard, it needs some tlc on the interior, but nothing that can't be cleaned. But I do want some sort of seat cover just to protect it from anything I do. I must say I...

No problem and look forward to posting pics.

Thanks everyone for the advice and help. I just got off the phone with her and I'm going to pick it up this weekend!

The only issue is an oxygen sensor and her husband told me if I were to buy it he would pay to have a new one installed by the dealership and also pay the taxes and registration fees and if I wanted a complete tune up with new plugs and wires, jsut the whole deal. And what is this pink...

That's what I keep hearing from everyone. I want something dependable to drive back and forth to school especially in the winter and I like the comfort of an suv because I'm 6'3 and need the space to spread out and do some hunting and love off roading.

Easy as that huh? lol Anything I need to know about $runners in general that will help?

I'm looking to buy my first runner and my gf's sister has a 2001 Sr5 4WD with 108,000 miles that was her daily commute. It looks like it just came off the showroom floor and has never been off road. She decided she wanted a prius instead so they are looking to sell the runner. They're asking...
