    Appears to be oil in coolant- failing head gasket or?

    I would flush it and keep a close eye on its condition afterwards

    Which would you buy??

    Generally I prefer the looks of the 3rd gen. If price diff is more than 3k or so I would prefer the 3.4 truck

    Question for the dads, which convertible car seat for non-latch installation??

    I can't remember brands exactly but after nearly not keeping the 4runner due to no latch system, I will say my daughters front facing car seat/booster seat is much more secure in there using just the seatbelt and the rear cargo hook as a tether point, than any other vehicle we have had with no...

    Timing belt job question

    Sometimes I wonder how many 3.4's are running around at 200+ with the factory timing belt. When I buy one with over 200k I require timing belt replacement receipts or some serious negotiaton to compensate

    Confused. Limited 16" Wheel Brakes vs SR5

    So the pads are different as well? I didn't know that... I'd ordered some pads in the past and don't remember being asked to specify wheel size and never got around to installing them so I may be in for a surprise.

    3 inch lift with 265/75/16

    The kumho at51s are good tires, I know Walmart had them super cheap a few weeks back I nearly ordered some. Running 265/75-16 on my stock limited and they fit great, no rub even if flexing a bit and only lost about 1mpg.

    Advice on value

    That truck is beautiful I wouldn't take anything under 7500-8k. I'm in MS and deal lots of used trucks... Almost paid $7k for s truck like yours with 114k and belt receipt. They don't make these anymore; list it high and wait for an enthusiast to come along.

    Leak + Losing Coolant

    With coolant level full, I would crank it let the system pressurize and watch heater hoses for a leak, should be visible. Just put a radiator in mine, surprised at how cool it still ran even when it had gotten a little low and wasn't fully pressurizing.

    Upholstery fixes

    Same issue on mine, front seat leather has hardened and cracked and torn all up... Been quoted $175 per seat to recover but just don't know if I wanna pay it yet.

    MPG on your 3rd Gen?

    On my 99 2wd 3.4 auto I got 20.3mpg best with 265/70 tires with mostly country road driving 60ish. Now with 265 75's and running 80-ish interstate it got 18.8 on one tank... Still not complaining because I've owned several others and the Toyota beats their recorded mileage in my experience as...

    towing

    I tow a 16x6 utility trailer with 2 atv's regularly and it does fine. I don't think you'll have any issues
