Since I am paying with cash they treated me OK. That and I went to school with the owner.

Everything totaled around 32K.....Hard to believe that's just $500.00 off from what I paid for my first house! Fookin' hell!

Kind of "plain jane" lookin' but it's all I need to tool about and go down on my river property toting my trailer/4-wheeler every now and again.

LOL...It's got a push button starter on it.....Reminds me of how I used to set up old Jeeps.

I've been looking for one ('21 or '22 with like milage) for about a month and they are very thin on the ground in my AO so I jumped on this one when they called. I had asked them to be on the look out for one for me.

I won't be sad to see my 2010 F-150 go down the road. No need for it anymore. It just sits unless I have to take something to the dump. I use it so little I had to buy a battery minder to put on it to keep the battery up. My son in law will make good use of it as his PU just shat the bed.

They are scarce cuz 4Runner owners dont give them up.

I had a 2013 Black 4Runner Limited that I loved until a kid ran into me and totaled it. Had zero issues over 11 years.

I now have a 2023 Black 4Runner Limited that I love.
 
4Runners are FANTASTIC

My old one in Appalachia.

The guy who owned this one was from the next county over who passed away and his wife was selling all his shit and moving.

One thing about the dealer, he does not buy dogs. I bet between my dad and myself we have bought a score of vehicles from G&M over the years. Never disapointed.

It's nice to buy from a local family-owned dealership you know and can trust.....Both of his sons and one grandson work there too. :)
 
I struggled between the 4Runner and Nissan Rogue when I bought new in 2021. I bought the Rogue because the ratings were similar and it had a bigger trunk space. So far, it's been wonderful. My biggest complaint is the sound from the Bose system isn't as good as the Honda CRV I had for 10 years without any problems except the air conditioning, which had numerous recalls on it from day 1.

And 4Runners are more expensive, as I recall.

I considered a Nissan Pathfinder but the years I wanted ('21-'23) they were of unibody construction.

I hate buying vehicles because i start doing math that pisses me off.

How many miles does it have?
How many miles best case can it reach.
How many miles if the difference?
Divide that number by the purchase price or amount financed and get starting point of Vehicle cost per future mile.
Add interest (if not a cash purchase)
Add fuel costs
Add maintenance and repair costs. . .

I can drive myself crazy with it.

LOL PUN
