CLEAN 2001 Toyota 4Runner SR5 4WD (no rear diff lock ONLY center diff lock)- 142,XXX miles ASKING $10,900 (Dallas, TX)
-Glacier Metallic (light metallic blue: great clear coat and shines like new.)**The hood has a removable black out sprayed on with Plasti-Dip. Again, this can be removed with no negative impact to the paint.**
-Gray interior (Clean! Thanks to a picky owner, covers and Weathertech mats front, middle and rear)
-Mobile One synthetic oil, diff fluid and t-case fluid used since I bought it 5 years ago. Changed every 5k miles.
-Timing belt (Gates), water pump, seals and guides changed at 65k miles as preventative maint. and replaced again at 110k miles for preventative maint.
I am the 2nd owner, I've owned it for 5 years, hate to sale, but need a commuter car with 25+ mpg. I've driven this 4runner about 300 miles a week the past 4 years, prior to that I was working from home and did not have a lengthy commute like I do now. I've been putting off selling this for a couple years, but with a family of 5 and growing expenses I can't justify keeping this. I know I'll regret it, but it's life. I am a "Toyota guy" and I've been part of the Toyota Land Cruiser Association for almost 20 years. This 4Runner has enabled me to meet great people and do some light trail riding in TN, TX, AR and NM on several occasions. I bought this 4Runner from a dealer in Raleigh, NC after the original owner traded it in with approx. 74k miles on it. I drove it back to Nashville, TN where I lived at the time, then drove it to Dallas, TX when my job moved our family to Dallas 4 years ago. June 1st makes 4 years we've been in Dallas, so the first year I owned it was in TN and working from home, so mpg was not a concern. I just completed a 1600 mile trip with my son to the Great Smoky Mountain Trail ride outside of Knoxville with NO ISSUES at all. I drove moderate trails for 2 days in the 4Runner and did not damage anything.
