Would you pay 9 grand for a 4runner with 91k mi?
Absolutely YES - but not too many rust free 4Runners in this part of the Ontario, Canada rust best.
- luckily my dealer buddy found one for me / 1 senior owner, with 80,xxx miles (129,xxx Km)
- a 2000 SR5, v6, auto. / still perfect original paint & rust free
Below quoted Gen3 values, probably still holds true / the good ones, take some searching & bit of luck, to find.
