Hey all! I decided I'd join up considering I typically join helpful automotive forums for vehicles I am interested in purchasing. I have a long laundry list of past rides; some more glorious then others I've owned.. I've worked in a shop when I lived in Denver Colorado (now a central Missouri native), so I know my way around vehicles (to a degree!).
I am looking to get a used 4runner, preferably a third gen 99-2001 (maybe a 2002). I really do not know a whole lot about 4runners, except they damn fine vehicles, and if maintained well, can go for a lot of miles!
I currently drive a 2005 Acura TL, and although I think it's great, I have always loved the 3rd gen 4runners -- it's the first vehicle that I fell in love with.
So I have been on the prowl for a solid 99-2002 4runner, and since I owe more on my car then its value, I have opted to trade at a dealer most likely.
Any suggestions on what I should be looking for? I want a 4x4, and was thinking limited since I heard the seats were more comfortable then the sr5's -- although not sure about the sport edition seats..
Any suggestions? I'd gladly take any help I can get. There have been a few I've found around Missouri, ranging between $7-10,000 with right around 100 to 160,000 miles..


Thanks, and look forwards to all the help in this great forum!

Sounds like you're on the right track. I think trading for an older 4runner is wise in that you're under water with the 2005 Acura. My priority would be purely financial and settle for any good 4wd runner that you can find. Welcome to the community.
