Used Car of the Day: 1999 Toyota 4Runner SR5
Today we bring you a very clean-looking 1999 Toyota 4Runner SR5.
It's a four-cylinder automatic with two-wheel drive. It has apparently been owned by the same person since 2001 and well-maintained.
New parts include new spark plugs, new distributor cap and rotor, new spark plug wires, new tires, new master cylinder, and new valve cover gasket.
According to seller, the vehicle runs and drives well and the only thing that doesn't work is the digital clock.
It appears this truck has never been in an accident, and the only damage appears to be rock chips and that sort of exterior wear and tear.
Check out this Texas-based truck here.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

- Tassos I never used winter tires, and the last two decades I am driving almost only rear wheel drive cars, half of them in MI. I always bought all season tires for them, but the diff between touring and non touring flavors never came up. Does it make even the smallest bit of difference? (I will not read the lengthy article because I believe it does not).

- Ede65792611 Got one. It was my Dad's and now has 132K on it. I pay my Mercedes guy zillions of dollars to keep it going. But, I do, and he does and it's an excellent vehicle. I've put in the full Android panel for BT handsfree and streaming with a backup cam.
- Lou_BC Wow. People say they want sedans and there should be more of them. Goes to show that internet warriors do not accurately represent the desires of the general population. What do people buy? Pickups and CUV'S. Top 10:1. F Series2. Silverado3. Ram4. Toyota Rav45. Model Y Tesla6. Honda CRV7. Sierra8. Toyota Camry9. Nissan Rogue10.

I just read an article on another site about the 2001-2007 Sequoia and it's million mile capability as a Toyota truck for relatively cheap providing it has a solid frame and you do your own repair work . I was thinking the same thing about a Honda Element on a much smaller scale of course .

I had a v6 3rd gen 4runner. Head gasket blew at less than 100k miles. Rust was starting and I live in a desert. Everyone keeps telling me how reliable it was.
