New Owner - Near Asheville NC

[teros0805]

Greetings.. Just picked up an 02 4runner today that had been listed here (and Craigslist) by a member. Vehicle is VERY sharp....zero rust and aesthetically speaking "primo". It does have a lot of miles (208k) but according to the previous owner burns no oil and runs great with only (very) minor issues. I'm psyched.

I'll be doing a few things right out of the gate to, hopefully, insure I don't run into any serious issues for awhile.... 1st thing = new radiator to guard against "strawberry milkshake" which I learned about thx to this forum. Hopefully the previous owner doesn't mind that I'm using his pic - havent had time to take my own photo's of it

I always admired the condition that particular 4runner was in for how many miles it had, looks brand spankin' new in that photo.

Welcome to the forum, you'll enjoy your new ride for a long time!

It really does look brand new in reality, at least externally. My fiance and I must have said that 3 or 4 times today. Interior is in great shape but shows a little more wear understandably. I honestly don't think I've ever seen a 10+ year old vehicle look as good as this one!
