This has been a great vehicle for many miles and with a little help can go many more. My son was driving it and it ran hot on him. I got the overheating issue taken care of but the engine doesn't sound so great any more. It will start up and run but is a bit noisy now. I'm not sure if it can be repaired easily or if it just needs to be replaced. I checked www.car-part.com and there are several hundred good used engines available across the country at very decent prices, mostly depending on mileage. Everything works with the exception of the a/c. As you can see by the photos there is some minor damage to the front end and I think the a/c condenser was damaged at that time since the air stopped working then. I have a good grille but it won't go back in untill the bumper is replaced. Here's a list of the body damage: front bumper and brackets, lower valance, a/c condenser, minor repair to both front fenders. I may be missing something minor but that's the bulk of it. The transmission shifts out great. The tires are okay, probably about 50% worn. The interior is in very decent condition with some staining as you can see in the pics. As I stated, this vehicle will start up and drive but I don't think it's going far without the engine being repaired or replaced. It WILL need to be towed or transported when picked up. I was looking at parting this 4Runner out over selling it but I just think it's still too good to part even though I could probably make more than my asking price if I did. I will need a $250 PayPal deposit and require the remainder within one week of auction end. Please do not bid on this vehicle if you don't plan on following thru with the deal. The last time it was listed the winning bidder would not even respond to any of my messages. Beware...This bidder does not complete his transactions: 32rgroro
