I thought this thread would be full of guy saying the limit was maybe 150k but a couple would start at 200k.
The power train on a 4Runner is good for 250k minimum if properly maintained.
The styling and features haven’t changed much either so it really would depend on how many miles you are comfortable driving a vehicle to, maintenance records and condition.
I’d also add that used pricing on them at times has been so high relative to purchasing new that I would’ve recommended purchasing a new 4Runner for $40k over a used 4Runner with 50k miles for $34k.

There are 2017 SR5 models with around 90,000 miles that are going for nearly 30k.

As far as miles, I would go as high as 100k-150k. The interior condition is what would matter more to me, as it probably also coorelates with how they performed regular maintenance.

I don't understand Toyota math.
I did very well selling both of the Tundras I owned by buying pretty basic SR5's and trading them in after 3-4 years with lowish miles and good condition.
To buy a used Toyota is gut wrenching and I am not sure I want to pay new prices now either. The price of entry is extremely high, even though I can afford it I am looking at 5 year old 50k mile Armadas because they are cheap... a similar sequoia is 50% or more expensive with MORE miles on them.

This is the correct answer.
Buy a new SR5 (if you don't need the 4WD, and it sounds like you don't.)
I bought a used (35K miles) a little while back, but it wasn't much cheaper than new. Only reason I bought it was that dealers were still on their "market adjustment" bullshite, and thier was a six month wait for a new one.
