Option 1: A 2000 Toyota 4Runner with 89,000 miles and 5-speed manual. V4 2.7 liter.. It needs $2000 worth of repair which includes new clutch, new brakes, new tires, etc. I can get this for $6000. One owner, no accidents/damage clean Carfax, used car dealer.

Option 2: A 1999 Toyota 4Runner with 89,000 miles and automatic transmission. V6 engine. I can get this for between $7000 and $7800. My mom has the same mechanic who has worked on this vehicle since the owner has bought it. One owner, private seller.
