Newbie from the bay, looking for 4th gen runner

[bCaHnIaCnKa]

just wanted to wave hello to my fellow 4runner owners in hopes of joining the ranks some day looking for my first SUV!

I found my 97 on craigslist. Maybe 2 weeks of searching, and then I found the right one.

It worked for me, because you can see what people are asking for, and what they are offering. Puts the buyer back in control.

Good luck, let us know when you get one!

thanks! I'm actually looking at a very clean 03 T4R black, limited, v6 in the bay area with only 60k miles and an asking price of $15.7k .... but the problem is ... black =X!!!!! being a black car owner, it's such a pain, I cannot imagine an SUV that I plan on taking into the snow/rain etc. ...

I've got black and I love it!

My GF found a cheap drive through car wash for $5, which doesn't do the best job, but for $5 it's good enough to clean it after offroading. When the weather stabilizes, I'll bring it to my regular place that makes it look new for $30

hey neighbor!!
Black looks good when clean but def not when dirty, I have even trouble with my silver one, what about white? I think they look great on the 04's

mm it would be good if I could find one but so far no luck in my price range and year range and hopeful mileage range as well

Try checking at dealerships. When I wanted to trade in on a G8 GT they were only going to give me 11k for it.

createbmx....where do you bring your truck to for $5 and $30 washes. i used to do washes myself but have gotten lazy lately. i bring it in once in awhile to tower wash on van ness and they only do a so-so job and i usually have ta finish up what they miss.

and that's a sick looking M3 you've got...hope you have luck finding the right 4runner.
