Opinions on 100 series Land Cruiser?

[medic6116]

Hey guys thanks for all the advice. I should clarify my situation just a little bit.....

Unfortunately I will not be a full time student for a semester and some change (problems with work and the lease on my apt) but am currently reaping the benefits of a 60+ a week paycheck. So I dont mind spending a little on a nice vehicle. I also currently drive a 97 subaru and while she is VERY faithful to me (286k) I cant stand the thought of another econo car simply because Im 6'3 and like room.

On another note..... a 2003 Toyota 4runner V8 with 100k just went up for sale in my area. Anyone have any experiences with this vehicle?

listen to "p nut"

i wouldnt buy one with 200,000 unless it was toy to wheel the snot out of.

**** is gonna fail.

scrounge up another 5000 bucks and shave some serious miles off of your prospects.

200,000 miles in NOT an unfortunate problem for a 100 LC.:sombrero:

Quite right. I just turned 272k miles this morning. Still going strong.

I'm at 169,000 and it still drives like it's brand new. My younger brother has an LX470 at almost 280,000 still running strong. Great vehicles, just wish they weren't as thirsty.
