Leather n blue

[TrexRunnerGirl]

Quick question... found an 05 that’s blue, leather, V8 and just under 160K.
Is this combo one of those “less seen”?
Right now it’s ticking off all my check boxes. I always seem to get all but the leather seats.
Seems a tad over priced but it’s always what ones willing to pay in the end.
Thanks

For the 2003 to 2005 model years, the 4Runner was offered in Pacific Blue Metallic.

My old 03 Limited was this color, with a grey leather interior

Please tell me these V8s don’t use premium gas!?!?
That would totally break my lil heart. Not sure I could do $6-7/gallon here in tax-to-death Illinois.

Yep looks like this one..all blue. I dig the all blue.
If it lasts until Monday since I work all weekend then it could come home with me.

I ran my 03 Limited V8 on Regular 87 octane with no problems.

Boss man thank you so much for all the info and links!!
I also read all about the cracked dash issue and hope this one never cracked or was replaced. Just have to crawl under it since it’s an evil midwest truck.
I could be a 3 vehicle girl soon if all goes well.

I run regular in mine as well, no issues runs great gets around 17 MPG mixed driving and 20 to 21 MPG highway, many here say they run premium and get better mileage but I had to put premium in mine once because the station was out of regular due to hurricane evacuation and mine got worst mileage, this could be because the computer wasn't able to adjust to the higher octane on just the short time the tankful lasted another tank or two the computer may have adjusted the timming and fuel trims and gotten better mileage but I'm very happy running regular.
