    Vehicles are getting expensive. It is what it is. Can’t avoid it. $15k is ALOT but $60k for a v6 4Runner and $80k for a 1 ton that people pay for these days is insane to me too but what can you do?

    Anyone paying 60K for a 4runner is stupid. Even a TRD Pro MSRP is mid 40's.

    Dylans truck has over 100K miles and I think he's in it somewhere close to 50K but it's diesel and I general diesel trucks seem to hold their value more.

    Yep. What sucks is there’s no middle ground. It’s $15-18k for one with 200,000 miles or $40k for one with 50,000.

    There’s like no $25,000 with 100,000 mile diesels. Which’s sucks.

    Do 4runners have more space in the rear seats than a tacoma?
    Do 4Runners have a lot more rear leg space than a Tacoma? Reading that it does. Can you confirm?

    Yea there’s more room. Now. If you’re talking about room for kids.... I have no clue. @BulletToothTony would be better about leg room for kids

    I had no issues with my 5 yr old in the backseat of the taco. She did sit on the passenger side and my other half is shorter and didn’t have to have her seat that far back. As for 4r seats my second gen has about the same or less than the taco did but I have no idea on legroom on 5th gens.

    I'm saving for a GX by the end of the year. How many miles, what model year and how much did you pay for yours?
    I saw one in Houston last week on Craigslist with 160k miles go for $6700. I think it was a 2003. I'd like a 2005-2009 for the vvti

    They're out there. You just need to wait for the right one. Plus I wasnt looking for a mint condition. As long as the body was good and the motor/trans was good.

    Gotcha. This one ima look at Sunday is pretty close to mint. Little stuff wrong with it and base interior. I’ll get leather seats for it if I get it. He’s been asking $17k for a few months. Gonna go check it out and offer $14k cash and see if he bites.

    No. Cause I really wanna buy it so I don’t want someone else to get it :anonymous: but it’s a red dodge on Craigslist if you want to look at it. I’m coming to town Sunday to check it out.
