Just bought an 04 Limited 2WD V6 with 80k for 14,300. Very clean and serviced at Toyota dealer regularly since 50K. I think I did ok

Happy to learn I have a timing chain and not a belt. A bit worried about the HG thing as their seem to be a lot of posts here about that, but I figure it is probably a small amount of people that have had issues compared to the total number of 4th gen 4runners on the road. Also starting to second guess myself for not buying a v8 and 4x4 (am a die hard jeep wrangler fan and always laughed at people that bought jeeps without 4x4) but the truth is where I live their just isn't a lot of need for it.

What does everyone think? Also, any suggestions of maintainence I should have done immediately would be appreciated. I want this thing to run for 300k plus!

If you dont tow or anything the v6 more than holds it own. As for maintenance check if the diif fluids were changed, thrans oil and possibly Seafoam it. I too was very worried when i found out about the HG issue but slowly forgot about tit when i found it was just a small amount of V6's.
