Debating about selling my 4Runner. Been looking online at asking prices but those are asking prices. Wondering what they are going for realistically.

2006 SR5, 4X4. 144k miles. No issues with engine or 4X4.

YOu forgot to mention V6 or V8. cause V6 is crap powerwise.
 
I just bought my silver 06 v6 4x4 sport edition with about 185k miles for just shy of 7k. recent work done to it would be brakes including new calipers, radiator and some minor things im forgetting. I am located in CT but traveled to MA for the car

Vehicle is in pretty good shape, but of course im noticing more and more scratches everyday. Drives very well and im hoping I get some years out of it without doing too much work.

Crap? No. It's a very solid engine, perfectly adequate for a daily driver. I've driven other trucks with more power on paper but slower in reality.

If you absolutely NEED power then you want the V8.
 
These rigs vary greatly by location. Seeing how you have DENVER in your profile, they're probably valued a little bit higher.

Use the normal online books. Then local ads and see what dealers/private sales are asking. That'll be your high/low margins.
 
If its un-rusted underneath, I would not expect it to go for less than 12k. If its rusted...well...might be a hard sell.
 
I happen to be shopping for a 2006 or newer with a V6 right now, located in the Chicagoland area. A 2006 SR5 with that mileage is going around $8000-$10000 out here, depending on options and condition.

Man, buying this thing was a disaster. I'd been eyeballing ebay and craigslist and cars.com and the like for probably 6 months just waiting for a 4r I liked and with reasonable mileage and price. I stumbled on one just fresh put up by a dealer. Not even priced yet. Told them I wanted to come look at it they said no problem, we'll have it ready. Hour and a half drive later I get there and they say they can't find the truck. While they're looking for it I get the $12k figure from the salesman. Fantastic! I had been expecting $14 or $15k. They were a new car Mercedes dealership and seemed to just want it off their fancy lot.

Finally they track it down to a neighboring Toyota dealership for recall work. So they told me they couldn't sell it to me that day because they didn't have it and they told me they couldn't sell it to me for like 4 months because it had a stop sale until the recall work was done and parts weren't coming until then. I gave them a polite but firm earful for telling me to come look at it when they didn't even have it and couldn't even sell it to me if they did.

So I drive back home and two days later get a call from the salesman saying I should come back down because they got the truck back and surprise there wasn't actually a stop sale on it. So I tell him sure, but I need to drive it back up here on my test drive to my mechanic for the once over. He said they could do that. So, another hour and a half drive back down there and I pick it up. Filthy and not detailed yet but nice truck. Love it. (My first 4runner and first V8.) Mechanic says it's in great shape.

So I head back down to the dealership with it and on the freeway some lady merging onto the highway merged right into the side of the truck while I was in the left lane! Scuffed up the front quarter panel. Just my luck though! a cop was sitting there radaring traffic and came over to sort us out. He ended up being a useless turd though. Her car was unregistered, uninsured and not hers and she was from out of state. He said since no one was injured nothing's gonna happen and we can both just head off. ?!!?! Man, they'd have thrown me in prison if I did what she did.

Anyway, I get back to the dealer and tell them about the accident and ask them to buff the damage out of the front quarter panel and I'll take the truck. So I need to drive back home and make a third trip down later to pick it up after they've detailed it and took care of the damage.

Great truck, great price. Worst buying experience ever.

No just. It's been in CO it's whole life. Everytime it snowed, once snow was off road - I had the car wash spray the under carriage.
 
I just paid 6700 last Saturday. 2007 v8 with 171000 miles. Everything works and drives very well. Underneath looks more rusted then I expected but it is solid. There is a small rust bubble on the lift gate and some rust on the moon roof lip. Drives excellent and just had the timing belt done 20000 mikes ago. Oh yeah matching michelins.

Glad you got yours!

Mine was a mission too. My wife and I drove 5 and a half hours to get ours... What a mission that was too.

Picture below was when we were on our way home with it!
