Reliability, capability and comfort

I love my new 4-Runner. It goes ANYWHERE, and does it in style and comfort. It has an awesome sound system and, despite its tough suspension it is one of the most comfortable cars I?ve ever ridden in.

It IS the most reliable SUV to own

This is the 5th 4runner that I have owned. The 2018 model has the smoothest ride out of all. Has all the power to play and the style to cruise.

Best Car I have ever owned

This car has it all, and is my dream car. It is reliable, can handle any weather and terrain (and in the short time I have owned it I have put it through its paces very seriously) it handles well, is very responsive, and I feel totally safe. It handles surprisingly well considering it's size, and it is still quite nimble. It's roomy and comfortable, has plenty of legroom and I also enjoy the seat heaters

Great SUV

I purchased a 2018 Toyota 4runner, Off Road Premium. I have only owned a month, aprox 1500 miles so far. I will start by saying this vehicle is not for everyone. The reasoning for this is it doesn't have many creature comforts as almost every other make of SUV on the market. A few things it doesn't have that my 2014 Grand Cherokee did; heated steering wheel, automatic headlights, passenger vertical adjustment, power lift gate, push button start, keyless/ fob-less entry, remote start. That being said, this is still a phenomenal SUV. The reasons I still purchased this vehicle over another with the creature comforts; Toyota reliability, off-road capability, interior cargo room, and rear glass window ability of rolling down (for the dogs). The ride comfort is great even for a large body on frame SUV, it is definitely firm but not harsh. Seats are firm, but I prefer that over a "coach" feeling. Gas mileage is as expected, average 18-19, 70-30 highway. I intend on owning this vehicle for 200k+ miles and expect to have no issues. The confidence you have in your vehicle to never leave you stranded and take you anywhere you could ever want to go cant be over stated. Worth every penny. Would buy again in a heartbeat. I sold a 2014 Grand Cherokee Limited (that was paid off) for the 4Runner. Although the Grand Cherokee had a little more of a luxury ride, with all the creature comforts you could ever want, I spent entirely too many weekends at the dealership having issues fixed ( or not fixed because they couldn't figure it out). The reliability of a 4runner is phenomenal. An easy way to check this is to compare resale value of a 4Runner to any other SUV on the market. Nothing comes close. Happy Hunting

Well worth the wait...

I bought a brand new 2018 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro. It took several months to get it after ordering it but it was certainly worth the wait. I wish it had a few more electronic safety features, but at the same time I like how simple the vehicle is. This is a good example of how sometimes simple is still great.

Love the 2018 4Runner! Simple, comfortable, rugged

Love the 4Runner. Simple design inside , lacking latest tech inside, but that?s less to break. Huge knobs to control everything. Very comfortable too. Off road capability is basically unmatched for size, plus option for 3rd row searing. Love it

Best all around vehicle!

This is my 5th 4runner. They are reliable and hold their value. On a nice day put down the power rear window, open the sunroof and open all the windows just a great vehicle.
