I would have bought this one myself, if I hadn't bought a different one just last week. This 4Runner has perfect leather seats (no cracking). It has virtually no rust (like not even on bolts and screws). Has the electronic locking rear differential too !

1997 Toyota 4Runner Limited 3.4L automatic transmission, 4WD 248,000 kms / VIN- JT3HN87R6V0076891.jpg

"-The 3rd generation Toyota 4Runner was available from 1996 through 2002..... The 3rd gen 4runner is often regarded as the most reliable and dependable of all the 4runners. The 3.4L V6 developed by Hino (owned by Toyota) was designed specifically to be a trouble-free workhorse. When properly maintained, your 4runner will go well beyond 400k miles and last for generations to come....... The 3rd generation 4Runner is a body-on-frame truck based SUV with Independent front suspension (IFS) and solid rear axle with coil springs in the front and rear."

.....folks have been asking me what the Autocheck reports are good for.... See an example below.........

We have a 2005 Chevrolet Blazer 2dr 4WD w/ 198,000 Kms / VIN: 1GNCT18X25K114077 Price is only $3995.... and it's a BC vehicle with a solid Autocheck report.

Also, what a quote from http://www.autos.ca/used-car-reviews/used-vehicle-review-chevrolet-blazergmc-jimmy-1995-2004/

"...If you want years of trouble-free service from your SUV, look elsewhere, but if you do most of your own vehicle maintenance and repair work and need a decent tow vehicle on a tight budget, one of these trucks might be just the ticket."

Here's how I start my own vehicle background check:
1. Run Autocheck.com vehicle history
2. Run Aircare.ca emissions test results "inspection history"

How well do you know your own car ??? .... who wants to check their own VIN to see the true vehicle history?
Send me a PM with your VIN and I'll send you back a copy of the report. …….I've got a one month trial subscription and can run a report for you if you like.

Ever hear of a Gurgel ?
"An old Gurgel would make a fantastic classic to own, being unique and exotic while being very easy to maintain and modify, thanks to the VW mechanicals."

There's actually a lot of competition for the title of "weirdest carmaker." You've got companies like Sbarro making cars designed for falconry, and there's genuine kooks like Mohs, making gigantic, exterior-upholstered monsters. But when it comes to weird in actual volume production, it's hard to be...

What do you think about this as a possible company logo ?

"Good for its age" or "good condition"..... "What they really mean: This is a reeeeeeally old car.".......
"Good by whose measurement? These types of subjective statements are open for interpretation. Slobs may think a sty is good. Persnickety owners may have an immaculate car and only describe it as good. "
