"I just purchase an '08 4Runner with a mere 15,000 miles (hardly broken in!) I traded in a '05 Pathfinder, which I bought new and truly enjoyed for the three plus years I owned it. This is my first 4Runner and so far I'm impressed. There is quite a bit more room in the 4Runner compared to the Pathfinder. The 4Runner is more plush and drives more like a car. This was something I wasn't sure I'd like because I actually enjoyed the trucky feeling of the Pathfinder. However, in just one short week I'm already loving my new ride! I was looking for something that would tow my 4500 lb camper without any issues...so I did opt for the V8, which is rated at 7000 lbs for 4X4 (althought the V6 is rated for 5000 lbs) but I figured the 8 would be better for more frequent trips. The 4Runner came with a sunroof, 17" tires and radio controls on the steering wheel...all options that I would have wanted if I bought it brand new. It also came equipped with power seats, however, they are not memory - I wish they were because I'm fairly short and my husband is quite tall, so the manual seats or memory would have probably been better in this case, but I'm not complaining, at lease we can adjust the seat height as well. We also have two Labrador's who love their rides and the back has plenty of room for them especially with the rear seat down...it is huge and lays flat (no third row seat). They are enjoying their new ride too! I'm looking forward to owning my 4Runner for quite a long time..."

"My car just rolled over t0 203,000 miles. I bought this Toyota (US made in Kentucky) as a new car in Virginia and it has been driven all over the US and Europe, too. As a basic DX model, it came with just the features I wanted (pwr doors/windows, AC, AM-FM, rear defroster, front discs, etc.). Always started, never left me stranded. Like other reviewers, I still get 30+ mpg (slightly less in winter). Recommend Yokohama Avid Touring tires. Repair parts are plentiful from non-dealer stores. Wish they still made a car like this, without a lot of frills that I will never use."

"I've done a ton of research before looking at this car. To get this vehicle around 30k is a absolute steal. Very reliable, solid performance, roomy interior.... I've owned a Jeep Cherokee the past 13 years and I paid about 20k for it way back then... Don't get me wrong, the Jeep 6cyl is as reliable as they come and it's great in the snow, but it feels like you're driving a car in the 4 Runner. Those of you who have owned a Jeep know what I'm talking about, it's like riding a go cart with no shocks. The only complaint I have with the 4 Runner is the MPG, you'd think Toyota would have it up around 20city 24HW by now."

"I have the UrbanRunner 4x4 Sport Edition and it is by far the best SUV on the market hands down! It look similar to the standard Sports Edition model, but it has some great things that make it stand out. The running boards and roofrack are a smoke black and the interior is totally unique. It has both leather and micro-suede seats which are very comfortable and a one-of-a-kind Nav system using a removable Tom-Tom Nav screen. I high recommend this vehicle to anymore that wants a mid-side SUV."

"I've had 6 toyota/Lexus cars and two of the 4Runners. The 2003 facelift was solid by Toyota. They replaced the faulty front cup holders that shook too much and blocked dashboard airflow. The storage has been widened in the back. The V8 is very peppy and yet economical. Lastly, the chassis change was smart going from my 98' lmtd to the 03' Lmtd. I ran my first 4Runner to 150k w/o any problems."

"We own a 2004 sport edition 4runner. At 40k we replced the tires which were not the greatest to begin w/. We just put new brakes all the way around it AT 80K!!(and the back ones were fine, i just figured 80k is a lot of miles lets change them.) This cost about $750 WHICH I REALLY CANT COPLAIN. The brakes and a heat sheild on the exhaust are the only problems I've had in almost five years! I'll take that to the bank. If you are looking for a great suv this is probably the cheapest vehicle to own available to you. And it's really nice. Buy one I'm gonna buy another and give this to my kid! This truck is amazing in the snow as well. We get a lot of snow where we live and I feel a lot better knowing that my kids are in this truck. My pickup truck (4x4) is nowhere near as capable in snow or even mud for that matter. I swear this thing will climb trees!!!!!!!"

"The 4runner is timeless. I did alot of research before purchase. Other vehicles offer more gadgets, but so does the limited. I am confident it will outlast others. I love driving it and the seats are very comfortable."

"This car is a pleasure to drive and is very comfortable, especially for long hauls. We recently took a long family trip through the mountains, and it handled all conditions great and had good acceleration and control through the climbs and descents. Fuel consumption is OK for an SUV -- not great but not a huge hog."
