Probably one of the most solid vehicles I’ve ever owned along with my ford ranger. I’d take a 2001 3.4L V6 4Runner with 260,000 miles on it over any new Kia, Hyundai, Nissan, ford, etc. out there (unless we’re talking diesels but that’s not the point). The only issue is finding the ones who haven’t been turned into a rock crawler, rolled once or twice, and then sold to an unexpected buyer who didn’t know the extent of the abuse. But if you have a reputable, responsible series of prior owners as well as consistent maintenance (especially the timing belt replacements since those are the grim reaper for these vehicles), you have a 400,000 mile car EASILY. If you’re looking to buy one, check for rust underneath the vehicle since that’s a common problem as well. Also, check all the windows and electronics work as they’re supposed to. Other than that, only amazing things to say from my own experience!
