Depends how much you drive. I average about 15k miles a year. Figure I’d keep the vehicle 6-7 years. Thats 90-105k. Wouldn’t buy anything with more than 30-35k miles on it, puts me at 135k when I trade in
We're talking about a Toyota here, and one of the more rugged models. Not a Chrysler.
I thought this thread would be full of guy saying the limit was maybe 150k but a couple would start at 200k.

The power train on a 4Runner is good for 250k minimum if properly maintained.
The styling and features haven’t changed much either so it really would depend on how many miles you are comfortable driving a vehicle to, maintenance records and condition.
I’d also add that used pricing on them at times has been so high relative to purchasing new that I would’ve recommended purchasing a new 4Runner for $40k over a used 4Runner with 50k miles for $34k.

quote:200K on a well-maintained Toyota doesn't scare me a bit. In fact, I just bought a 2006 Tundra with 212K in July. Still drives better than a new domestic.

If I were in the market for a T4R, I'd find a clean 4WD 4th Gen with a 2UZ (4.7L V8). They literally run forever.

When they don't have frame rust issues, bad engines or other lesser problems that plagued successive generations of the model. I wouldn't go beyond the 3rd gen model and even then the 3.0 V6 had issues that are inherent to its design. We had a 1997 SR5 that went through two engines in about 60k miles each.
