Default Questions on Buying A 1995 4Runner

Hi everybody, I'm new to the website and I would like a little help. I'm looking at my first Toyota, a 1995 4Runner SR5 Limited. It has a 5-speed manual, and the 3.0 V6. CD, power everything, sunroof, etc. 134,000 miles on it. Please tell me pros and cons of the vehicle, and what things I should be looking at. This is a daily driver, not a trail machine, although I don't mind going on Forest Service roads, etc. No rock crawling. I do live in an area that gets 6-8 inches of snow several times a year, so I really like the 4wd.

Just asking for what you like, what you don't like, what problem areas I should look for etc.

Thanks in advance,
The Highlander

I've got a 95 runner but it has the 22re 4cyl. in it. Great ride but underpowered. I've had it for about two years now and it has been awsome. No problems in the snow and ice (although tires play a big role in that), and it has not given me any major problems. At 160,000 now and just breakin her in!

22re has alot of upgrades for it though...

Also engines are cheaper and save gas and actually have more power then the 6cyl I have heard.
