First Toyota Suv Ever

[WarthogGrunt]

Hi! I'm a recovering full size Bronco Addict. I had been convincing my wife the need for a better off road vehicle. I thought it would be a Bronco given she knows my like for them. To my surprise she had her Dad who runs a sales and service car lot find me something. He found me a 4runner Limited 2000 model. 1750 was paid and it only needed tires and a battery. It's supposed to be a surprise next Friday but I can read bank withdrawal info.

Anything I should know about?

It's a 3.4L V6; 3378 CC's. Known as the 5VZFE in Toyota engine naming. Take care of it and it will take care of you for many miles.

That's it my bad I was going off memory of our old 3rd gen( never sold have traded it off) :focus: thinking it said 3800 on motor and it's 3400 stole this from someone else on here.

Thanks guys! I got a call a little bit ago. 2 Exhaust Valve Gaskets are leaking? I couldn't hear much over the sound of my 2 year old calling me a horse and saying our dog is a cow.
