Was thinking of getting a 4Runner. Is this true that they can go high miles without much work. I like the look of the one in this video.

Not really a downside for someone asking if "they can go high miles without much work."

i have one that has gone over 250k miles and we have barely worked on it at all. only thing i had wrong with it is some jackass stripped the bolts for my skidplate so i had to get new ones on the next oil change i got done. otherwise, no problems at all and it makes a great offroader.

I asked on an earlier thread about a 2003 4Runner V8 that i just added to my garage, and wanted to build some obstacles to take it to the limit of its 9" clearance in all its glory.
suggestions?

Head out into the wilderness instead of driving over and posing on staged obstacles.

I have an '87 and it's a god damn tank. I can't say anything about newer ones but you wouldn't have a third gen mafia if they weren't solid too.

I had a 1998 sr5, and it went to 420,000 miles with no check engine light or leaks with regular ass maintenance. The only reason I don't still have it is because an old boomer asshole smashed it to pieces with his chevy truck.

The only major issues with IFS that I've come across is lifting them, the angles can put a lot of strain on the CV axles.

Other than that, if you want to put a locker in the front diff you're going to need to beef everything up. But you're better off beefing up a solid front axle if you're using a locker so it's not really just an IFS thing.

what other options do you have besides the 4runner?

>Without much work
Be a man, be responsible, and maintain your vehicle. If you can't, or your time is too valuable, pay someone who can.

If you don't want to be bothered with either, get a bicycle.

>>14592203
Land Cruiser is better.

>>14595660
4runner is good enough. Dont be a landcruiser fuck boii.
>>
>>14595777
Someone's mad he bought a runner, and not a cruiser.

>>14595206
no, thats being a poser, saying "traipse out into the wilderness". the point is to get familiarity with it.
