1997 2WD 4Runner Value

Hey y’all. Got my eyes on a pretty clean 1997 4Runner with around 180,000 miles on it. However it is a 2WD automatic transmission. Any idea what a good price is on something like this? Are there a fair amount of people out there buying 2WD 4Runners or are only the 4WD Manual transmission valuable?

 

Have you run the numbers on KBB......or other sites ?

Start there......are 2wd that much more efficient ?

Being in Utah....a 2wd 4Runner ? No thx

Spend the Xtra $$ for a 4x4.....whether you need it or not

Resale is gonna be much less than a 4x4 (iffin you ever wanna sell)

Seriously get a 4x4

 

The year by itself makes such a huge difference

 

Hahahah. Oh god. It is a 1997. Kind of forgot we don't have gen specific groups here for 4Runners. My bad!

 

It's worth whatever you're willing to pay. Photos of said runner would help us gauge.

 

97

2WD

Auto

180k miles

I'd say 1,000 as a nice little commuter

 

Amongst 3rd Gen 4Runners 2WD automatics are typically the least desireable. 2WD manual trans are worth a bit more, but still significantly less than 4WD.
I picked up a clean one owner 2000 2WD manual trans, under 200K miles for $3K a couple years back, California car so zero rust. (couldn't touch it for that now)
Based on where you are be careful with chassis/drivetrain rust regardless of what you're looking at, excessive rust would be instant deal breaker....
