Toyota resale value is crazy. I have a 99 4Runner Base with a stick that I put just over 500,000 miles on. I didn't rebuild the engine until 486,000. I get offers to buy it all the time because of the manual transmission and non-powered everything.
I would have never thought people would dump 5-6k on a half a million miles beat up 4Runner - but then again my cousin right out of high school makes $24 an hour at Taco Bell and over 1K a month online just mentioning businesses on a podcast so 5k to him would be like $500 to me when I was in high school. 3 months savings could buy him a Savage on FB easy.
Oh for sure. Toyotas are sweet, and manual is the way to go for longevity. Most reliable truck I had was actually a Ford believe it or not. Manual. 300 Inline 6. Best engine ever made. Regret selling it. Could haul anything I needed. I foresee those old I6 Fords to skyrocket in value. The 7.3's already started to go up in value. N/A diesel with great reliability.

That Ford inline 6 was a beast. Bulletproof.
My best friend in high school had a Maverick (the car, not the little weird truck they sell now) with the inline 6 and 4 speed on the column.
Kinda like Jeeps older inline 6. It just goes and goes. Those Jeeps invariably start leaking oil at 60K though. Like clockwork.

One of my daughters bought a ‘71 Maverick with an I6, but it was only about 220 CI.
The I6 in the Ford truck I’m familiar with was a 300 CI I6, and that was a strong engine. Ford had a range of engines for pickups:
140, 170, 221, 240. 272, 289, 292, 300.

I saw this on Facebook today. Obviously, this is highest price scenario, but it proves that the demand for old vehicles is very high.

Dodge Slant 6 was pretty good too. Friend of mine had a Dodge Aspen. Ran better than a lot of cars several decades newer. And his was a rust bucket.

The Slant 6 is a torque machine. I had a Duster ,72ish? in 75. 3 on the tree, absolute giggle factory.
