4Runner

We've spent over $3,000 on repairs and maintenance this year on my 2004 Toyota 4Runner with 150,000+ miles on it.  My goal was to drive my 4Runner until 200,000 miles, but for some reason I'm having issues with my 4Runner.  My friend Melissa has a 4Runner with over 225,000 miles and she claims she's not had any issues with it.  (*insert me rolling my eyes at Melissa*)

I think it's time for me to consider getting a new car.  Sigh.  Maybe another 4Runner?  I love cars, but I don't love spending money on cars!
