It occurred to me that i don't know much about the 4Runner.

The only for sure things I want are a manual transmission and 4WD. Did the 4Runner come with the 22RE? I'm kinda thinking that motor might be under powered in that chassis, so V6?

Things to look out for?

The 22RE was available until 1995 IIRC. While it might be a tad underpowered, that engine will outlive you and basically just requires gas and the occasion oil change. Absolutely bullet proof as is most of the 4Runner.

The 4Runner will rust away long before the mechanical bits give up the ghost.
