I'm looking at buying an 08 with 80k miles and was wondering if you guys think it's smart to go ahead and try to find some extra warranty that covers so many miles. I am researching the problems that may happen and the list looks pretty expensive. I was reading through another forum and saw one a guy was buying that the previous owner had put in 12k$ towards repairs. This has gotten me a little scarred about going with the lr3 and not something brand new but a little more expensive like a 4runner. Has anyone put this much money into repairs? Or should I be looking more to spend like maybe 3k. I know there's no definite answer but besides the control arms at 1000-1500 is there anything else that could have to be replaced that's a big ticket item. Thanks
