Is this a good deal? Looking to get into a 4 Runner, but selling my Corolla will only get me so much.

I got my 2013 SR5 4x4 with 142K for 18K. it's subjective but I will not drop that kind of money on a fourth GEN. Is it at least a V8?

Here's a 2010 with "lower" miles.

I am in Dallas and flew to Maryland to get mine. Expand your search and you may find a good deal + a one way ticket may get you a much newer truck. Gen aside, those years do matter in the long term. But if you are sold on a 4th gen, you can get one for 8 to 10K, sometimes with even more mods than the one you are showing.

Either way, all the best on your purchase and look forward to seeing your new whip!

Doesnt look like a V8, but we all know the 1GR isnt a slouch engine either. Im suspicious of whatever theyre calling a leveling kit, since it doesnt even look level in the pictures. Those Methods and Wildpeaks are good but nothing to jump for. One pic of the interior looks OK but Id want a close up look for sure, not to mention need to see the engine bay and underneath. Also no maintenance history mentioned. That being said i flew from MD to CA to buy my 4th gen, they can be found.

Plus side? Amongst 4runners you'll find 4th generations badass enough to be built for the likes of King of the Hammers races, they command that regard.

Bad side? Very little information given, too few pictures, no provided knowledge on maintenance.

@Shippe If no other info is available then walk away. Like @K-Paul above mentions there are options out there if you expand your search.

What they're calling a 'roof rack' looks a lot like a basket added to the oem rack...

I appreciate everyone’s input. I’m not sold on a 4th Gen. I just saw this was in my general vicinity (SE Idaho/Utah) and looked pretty clean, clean title, no rust on frame. I never thought of a one way ticket approach and then picking up a newer 4Runner. I’ll expand my search! Thanks, guys!

Killer deal here, but I think average for a lot of 4runners with 4x4 and v8 are around 9-10k (pandemic pricing anyway)
