Like what a lot of others have said, get the commuter car and build the 4-runner for whatever type of wheeling you enjoy doing. This is exactly what I've done and it works out very nice. I've got a Subaru that gets great mileage (~22+ in city and about 30 on long trips between 65-75MPH), and can still drive it all winter long and never worry about getting stuck. I've built my XJ for the type of trails i enjoy... It is still street legal though (sort of), because I have yet to break down and buy a tow rig... but with the killer deals on trucks right now I'm seriously debating it.
You can check KSL also, I see a lot of older mileage getters for under $1000 all day long... and as long as they were half taken care of, the mileage isn't that much of a deal. I have close to 250,000 on my subi and should easily go another 50K without even worrying about it.

Yup you will not reret getting the commuter. Plus, if you get one for around $1000-$1500, it wont lose any value, you can sell it in a couple years for what you bought it for or very close.
