I'm in the same boat as kewlynx. Got a 98 4cyl to look at 2 counties south. It's got 200k with head gasket and clutch done 25k ago. The owner claims that it's flawless otherwise. I'm replacing (or retiring to trail status) my rusting 85 Runnner. Any word on how these hold up to the long haul. My old runner has 340K on the body and about 120K on the motor. Can I expect the same reliability out of the 2.7?


85 4Runner 22re, mostly stock. Over 340K miles(SOLD for $4000 7/06)

98 2.7 4cyl 4Runner Bone Stock perfect 200,000 miles (alright, it has a HG and clutch in it's past)
