I agree with rxinhed. I have a 99 4-runner with over 210K and it runs perfectly. I've had it for 7 years (bought it with 150K) and haven't had to do that much to it.

Put some money into the front end, but was still cheaper than a single months car payment. The tags, taxes and insurance are also less than a single months car payment, and that's with full coverage. Most expensive part I've had to replace was the catalytic converter. Did the install myself so it wasn't all that expensive either.

It's also our mine long distance driver, have no qualms about driving it any distance.

Hope this helps you out.
