buying 04, 90K

[HossBoss]

Hey there guys, newbie here.
I have been reading this forum for about 2 weeks now while I continue my search for my 4runner.
I took one home last night, its a 2004 SR5 with leather, sunroof, etc. but not sure if the 14,000 asking price is right.

I am coming out of a 123K Trailblazer and just a little apprehensive about purchasing a vehicle with 90K. Everything I have read here says that its probably got another 100K in it, but I was wondering how accurate that is.

Also, it had a bit of a ticking sound while running. Not a knock, so are the fuel injectors just loud on these?

Thanks in advance.
hoss.

Is it 4WD? For 04, 90k with Leather sounds about fair. Is 14K 'out the door' price?
I bought mine last year. It was 2005 2WD, 60K, with leather and GPS. I paid 15500 and out the door was 17200.

You need not to worry about the mileage, ss they say "its is just a number" , as long as you take good care of it.

the ticking is a valve slap, a lot of them have it, mine does, sounds bad at start up but goes away when warm. I would say 90k is still young, if PM has been performed well. I bought mine in 2008 for $14100, 2003 SR5 V8 AWD with $73k. I would try and get em down a lil , especially with gas prices, is it a V8? Ive got 103k on it now, and I dont see how it possibly couldnt see 200k.

went with an 07 with 62K, silver SR5...
I pick it up tomorrow...I am SO excited.

Toyota certified, and I extended the warranty to 8yrs/150K

Good Luck with your 07, I have a 2004 V8 SR5 4WD with 103k on it, I have a small ticking noise but it goes away when the engines warms up. I've had 3 people ask to buy it and $14,000 seems to be a fair price. I can't part with mine, I love it too much! You will be happy with your 4Runner.
