07 much better. Not made for the road.

Great if you spend your life in the mountains on back trails. For me not so much in my older years. I have an 07 4-runner and gave to my son. They both have roughly same mileage and I’m jealous when driving his car. So much better handling, more comfortable and just feels like a much stronger built car. Not worth 45 grand. Maybe 35? I bought the 07 used with 30,000 miles and 11 years later it is still far superior. Bought red 4-runner 3 years ago and it feels like it’s already falling apart.

Stunning!

Great power, the sound system is great. The 4 runner SR5 is well appointed with strikingly simple and easy to navigate controls. Exterior is also very stylish and timeless!

Reliable sure footed 4 wheel drive.

I hunt and fish and travel numerous back roads. This true 4 wheel drive never lets me down. Rugged and reliable a true outdoorsman's vehicle. Built on a truck frame definitely reliable.

second one I purchased

I am only 5' tall, but I find it easier getting in and lifting up than trying to get into a smaller vehicle. I have hip damage also, and easy to just slid down than to pull myself up and balance like needed from a regular vehicle. Female... and LOVE driving my truck. My other one is 20years old and has almost 275,000 miles. I gave that to my spouse! Barely spent a dime on my 1998 suv, other than normal maintenance, which was always done, which is only 4 cylinders.

Rugged and very reliable

Love the Toyota 4runners. A very low maintance vehicle and highly reliable. Plenty of room for a family of five. Four wheel drive capabilities is great, multi-terrain options.

I'm in love! Meets all my Wants and Needs

I'm so happy I decided to purchase the 2016 Limited Toyota 4Runner. I was looking for an SUV that sat higher up, offered more cargo storage and all the bells and whistles that my luxury small SUV offered. The 4Runner has all of the above! I feel so much safer on the road and can't wait for the family road trips, because we actually have room for all our stuff! I plan to drive this car until it dies.

Great car to have

This 4runner was exactly what I was looking for, had all the options I was looking for and was even the exact color I was looking for. It was prices very fairly and I am glad I found it

Best car I've owned

It is a great vehicle! I never had any issues with it other than maybe the setup of the cup holders in the front. The third row option and tow package are AMAZING! I loved the handling, and the features with the on board navigation and Bluetooth. Definitely loved the premium sound package too! Very spacious and I could fit my whole family in it. EXCELLENT gas mileage! I would frequently take trips from VA to CT (about 350 miles) and could do it with one tank of gas! Best SUV EVER!!!!
