this vehicle is very reliable and safe. It is a 4-wheel drive which I love.

2004 Toyota 4Runner Limited

I love this car and it's features. it's a very safe a functioning car. I do not have to worry about it having issues while driving. It is very reliable. The main thing that I do not like about this car is the gas mileage. I drive a lot so I have to fill the tank often, and get the oil changed often. Because of how much I drive, the car is still running perfectly and I know I will always be safe in this car.

2004 Toyota 4runner 'my opinion'.

2004 Toyota 4Runner Limited

Gas mileage is horrible, overall the vehicle is sturdy and dependable, although we've dealt with many minor problems (electrical with windows back hatch /window) (maintenance light won't go off) which is basically just telling you 'hey you've driven this many miles we recommend new fluids pumps lines etc' but as far as dependable, very.

- Nicki B

Speedy and reliable mom hauler.

2004 Toyota 4Runner Limited

I love my 4runner for speed, space and ability to go off road. My current 4runner has over 200,000 miles on it and is still going strong. It is a reliable vehicle. There is a current problem with the oxygen intake which will need to be fixed. The gas mileage is not exactly where I'd like it to be, but I cannot beat the v8 engine!

- Amanda C

Toyota 4Runner does not disappoint!

2004 Toyota 4Runner Limited

Very reliable and capable vehicle, drives great and haven't encountered any problems with it yet. Bought it used with higher end mileage, but can tell that it's going to last me for hundreds of thousands more! Quality of the vehicle itself is amazing as well and am very impressed with its durability and performance.

- Audrey M

Reliable SUV & I would buy this vehicle over and over again!

2004 Toyota 4Runner Limited

Well, I have over 200,000 miles on this vehicle! It has a V8 motor. So disappointed they don't make them with V8s anymore. I love the handling, turning radius, and reliability of the 4Runner. I love the features that the running boards light up for a short time so you can see at night stepping up into vehicle.

- Karen B

High mileage and still going strong.

2004 Toyota 4Runner Limited

My truck has 379,000 miles on it and it is still going strong. The dashboard has a recall. The passenger side is peeling and has started to crack. The brakes need to be changed often, but the main I issue I have is the ac does not work. This truck is reliable, comfortable, and spacious. I absolutely love it.

- Christy B

Dependable and low maintenance.

2004 Toyota 4Runner Limited

It is extremely dependable. It is very low maintenance. It gets about 21 miles to the gallon. It has been garage kept and paint looks brand new. The inside of the vehicle is very clean. The truck has one owner and has never been smoked in. I love driving it because I am up high and feel safe.

- Sherry G

It is well designed and I love the old school rear window which goes down.

2004 Toyota 4Runner Limited

Had to replace the transmission. Otherwise perfect! No other issues in fifteen years. It is a great driver. Very comfortable and a good off roader. Until the trans never had any issues. I drive it for long trips mainly. It has decent power. Love the V8. Lots of room for a big guy like me

- Colin W

A SUV that seats 5 and runs great.

2004 Toyota 4Runner Limited

I have not vehicle problems. This car since I had it handed down to me has had no problems and it's a great car and an upgrade from my last car. I love this car a lot. It has seat warmers which I love and a sunroof too. This car is just great. It has been very reliable so far.

- Faith E

It is a great car. Ten out of ten would recommend.

2004 Toyota 4Runner Limited

There are not any problems besides regular car problems. But sometimes the inside gets all smelly but I have been thinking that maybe it is just some pipes. And sometimes the brakes squeak so I oughta get that checked out. But other than that, everything works great.

- Leah A

Sleek black 4Runner with leather interior.

2004 Toyota 4Runner Limited

This car rides so smooth and has great speed. It takes off easy and goes really good. You can get so many miles out of these vehicles. The seats are very comfortable and they cabin is very spacious. The trunk part of the car has a lot of space. Easy to store things.
