my old man ran across similar issue with his older toyota 4x4 truck. new one is 40k. rebuild the v6 and it comes with 2 year warranty for 6k. body was fine-no rust and everything else works as it should, just old. he now has a toy with a rebuilt engine and hoping for another 150k.
probably a lot more decisions like this happening with the stupid price of new cars today.
