My 94 has over 400,000 on it, if that helps you any!
You didnt mention the year, if its a 95 or older, be very cautions getting it with the 3.0 V-6
they were defective, and blow head gaskets regulary.
the 96 and newer 3.4 V-6 usually will last forever.
we recently sold our 96 with 299K on it,
ran very good, all the rubber suspension bushings front and rear, were worn out, but engine and trans were still good.
only sold it cause we outgrew it, had to get something bigger. wound up with an expedition, which oddly enough doesnt use much more gas than the 4runner. it gets 2 mpg less than the yota.
When you need to replace the front rotors when they warp,( happened to mine about once a year) replace the rotors and calipers with ones from a 1st gen Tundra., its a bolt on deal, and they are large enough to not overheat.
yotatech.com will have lots of info.

i said it was a 4x4 but maybe mistaken,it has been lifted but it doesnt have any 4x4 monikers on the outside and the ad didnt indicate it was a 4x4,cant tell from the pics

My 1999 V6 4x4 SR5 has 180,000K on it and still runs like a dream. Its a 5 Speed Manual trans so that helps on wear and tear of transmission.
My wife's 06 has just over 100,000 and she loves it. Runs and drives like new and she gets 21 mpg in crappy traffic.
I am looking for a 04 model now
I know of a guy trying to sell his 98, has a solid axle in front, a double transfer case, and air lockers front and rear,
