It's the honest truth. GD has this fascination with buying high milage shit piles and expecting them to run with zero issues and last 25 years.

Between the two 4runners, the '02 would be my choice if the rear bumper rust is just rear bumper rust and the frame isn't affected.  I'd be suspicious on that point though.  It'll have the last iteration of the 3rd gen interior too, cupholders etc.  Between the cloth and leather seats, the leather looks better but the cloth is a LOT more comfortable.  The 96 has the rear electric locker option though and that's pretty cool to have, but the dash mounted cupholder is both fragile and largely useless unless you like coating your interior in beverage with every bump.

I've swapped the cupholder from a later model into my 98 and swapped a locker rear in too, not a ton of work but finding the parts can be a bit of a trick.

I know many have suggested a Jeep Cherokee, but let me offer another option:
Jeep XJ.

You lost me at spending 6k or less and needing to be reliable.

Uh, yeah.    That would have been tough 15 years ago.  Now?   Forget it.

Fitting 4 adults in a Cherokee would not be all that comfortable.   A full size crew cab would fit tools under the seats and seat 3-5 adults fine.

Up your budget.

I have noticed the 2003-2006/7 Ford Expeditions going for around 4K with 150ish thousand miles.  

I was going to sell my 2003 Eddie Bauer figuring with the crazy car market I would do okay.  Best offer I got was from CarMax for 2k.  The thing is in excellent condition with low miles for it’s age.  Mine has the two valve 5.4 that doesn’t have the severe spark plug problems.

Carmax doesn't sell Old cars.      You can get at least 6k for it.
Sell it to OP.

XJ Cherokee would work well for you. Insanely reliable, 4wd, also cheap and easy to fix.

I've found a couple that would work.
NOW I'm dealing with the fact that the DMV is now appointment only. And it often takes weeks to get into the with an appointment. So I'll have to drive a couple hours to get to the jeep I want. Then if I decide to buy it I'll have to pay for it then go online and make an appointment with the DMV. Hopefully everything works at the DMV, then I'll have to take another trip to go pick up the jeep weeks after I've paid for it.
Before covid I would just have went over to the local DMV, got the tags and drive it home.
