Wait, same 4runner, 2 years later, lost 600 dollars in book value and you are disappointed? Did you think it was going to go up because you put money into it? They arent collector cars, yet, anyway. Pick any make and model on a showroom floor today, go look up the book value, check it again in 2 years. There isnt a single one you could find that wont go down $600 in months, much less 2 years.

Well, i just didnt think itd drop really, seems like at one point it was going up and then down now, which there are reasons for that. Im not really upset lol. Say if i were to sale it, Id see 2 to 4k offers now.(not gonna sale it tho) Its gettin close to a collector car to me now haha.jk. No, i know that the "mods" or upgrades ive done to it will not increase the value, I just said that because its like a money pit, but no one can help to buy all this cool stuff for it. I would think itd drop more with newer ones....?

Vehicles arent investments man. Unless you buy a shelby stang and garage it for 40 years.

4runners are like herpes, once you get one, you have it for life.

Hahahaha thats an odd way to put it but very true. I dont see anyone taking mine off my hands honestly and ive had it for 2 years now. It was actually a year ago when i checked the value cause my buddy said his car was worth more than mine...I laughed and showed him i could buy 3 of his rangers for my 1 4runner hahah.

Its pretty hard to drive a vehicle for 2 years and have it worth more.

In and around DC, prices are usually adjusted up at least 15% over KBB. In other parts of VA, you won't find a big price drop over the DC prices.
Florida, FWIW, usually has the cheapest 4runners IMO.

What someone else is willing to pay for it is what the actual value is. Not an estimate published in a guide.
