V8 AWD to Part-Time Conversion?!

Hey guys I am new here. Currently in the market to get a 4Runner but I am wanting a V8 4WD. I am concerned about the mileage on all the ones that I am finding for sale and the price range. I was just wanting to see if someone could help lead me into the right direction on what a fair price would be and opinions on the reliability. I am wanting something that will last me at least another 100k miles but most all the ones I find have 200k + mileage.

Whatever advice anyone has would be much appreciated!!

Thank you!!


This is probably not the right thread for this discussion, but fwiw, I just paid $13500 for a 2008 V8 Limited 4WD with 196k miles from a dealer in the L.A. area (prices will depend somewhat on location). I can't speak to reliability on a vehicle I've only owned for 2 weeks and driven maybe 75 miles in, but I'm not expecting trouble any time soon and everything sounds like it's working properly.

Only "problem" I've had so far is the center diff lock not responding, but that turned out to be due to the switch having been disconnected at some point. Considering the tires that are on it, I'm doubting the previous owner did much real off-road driving and probably never used the locker.
