I am a new member and looking forward to finding out more about the 4Runner community. I just purchased a 2007 SR5 4Runner that has 230,400 highway miles and is in immaculate condition and has all the service records. It is a beautiful truck! Its funny, because I won't let people eat in it or slam the doors, (damn them!) but I will be using it to haul rock. I am not using it for every day travels, but rather for long trips to camp, collect fossils, minerals etc (heavy rock.) Most of you fix your own vehicles, but I can not. I live in Wisconsin. Anyone out there who can help?

I bought it because I believe it can easily run 300,000 plus miles. My question to you is how do I go about finding and working with a great service advisor to devise a plan how to maintain it? Rather than waiting for things to break, I would rather replace things proactively as money allows.

Example:
It has a timing chain that supposedly never needs to be replaced.
The fuel pump, alternator has never been replaced.
The engine does not smoke, no leaks either.
What gets priority? Where do I start?

Welcome from a fellow Wisconsinite. Sounds like you picked up a great 4Runner. I can't advise you on where to find a mechanic, but this is a great place to find some advice on your 4Runner.

Other things to think about replacing:
Suspension
Transfer case and differential gear oil
Idler pulley and belt

I'm sure there are a lot more things to that I missed. But, I did want to say welcome, and hopefully you find this a very helpful community.
