    So I just bought my first car which is a green 99 limited 4runner. It has about 155k. Before I go ahead and add things to it I want to make sure there wasn't any surprises. So my question is what should I look out for at 155k?

    It's good to replace the radiator to prevent the pink milkshake. Or add an external transmission cooler. If you get the pink milkshake, you will need a new transmission.

    Was the timing belt changed? You probably need valve cover gaskets too.
