It is a little loud on the highway however, it is smooth and allows us to go over big bumps with minimum discomfort
It has great reliability and plenty of space for a growing family of three. The spare tire in the back is amazing as well as the storage area under the trunk mat that allows us to put the tire tools and charging cables!

Its reliable, and safe. It's fun to drive, and gets me around town.
I like that it's an SUV and 4WD. I also like that it drives like a truck, not a car. It's fun to drive.
Andrea B

It is a low maintenance and durable vehicle that will last and give you many years of driving.
I love having the rugged 4WD ability combined with a comfortable and luxury interior. The size is just right for great maneuverability and comfortable for driving long distances.

Fantastic vehicle for travel and children!
I quite like my 2008 Toyota 4Runner... The "front seat" has multiple storage compartments and cup holders (it adjusts to accommodate various container sizes) including a flip down that functions like a table.... In the "rear seat" we find a garbage bag holder, a flip down console which also extends into cup holders and a table (similar to the front) great for snacks, etc. Very reliable, as long as there is regular maintenance great for road trips and children! Love the large trunk and spacious backseat... Would absolutely recommend it to those who love road trips or have growing families.

The perfect adventure & family road trip car!
We love this car. It is a great car, with little maintenance. We purchased the car right before deciding to start a family. It really is the perfect family car! It does not require any extra, special parts or oil. We also have two large dogs. The back window that rolls down is so great for when we go on long trips. They are happy with the fresh air & space. Aside from the family aspect, it is the perfect outdoor, adventure vehicle. Great for luggage, surfboards, snowboarding gear.

It requires very low maintenance. You can depend on it on long trips and not have problems. Great gas mileage and is very spacious inside.
This vehicle has never required any repairs only minimal maintenance every few years other than fluid changes. I have 100k miles and i have only replaced the battery and tires. Car has plenty of room and is highly dependable.

I love the size. It is really room. And it sits up high. I wish the driver's seat cushion was thicker.

No complaints! Perfect for taking trips or just hauling things around. It has a roomy interior also.

This Toyota is very dependable. Low maintenance. If you take care of it this car will last many years.
Has a lot of power. Quiet, higher up than a car, comfortable, Seats 5 people. Dependable.

The 4Runner is kinda like a summer crossover.
I drive 2008 4Runner. It's very comfortable and rides smooth. It comes with a sunroof and a roll down back glass window. It averages around 20 miles per gallon. It has an AUX cord import so that is very important to me. It does have a good bit of space and I like that the back seats can lay down. So I have more room for storage in the back. I am happy with my vehicle.

Durable and Reliable Toyota 4Runner
I like the size of my vehicle. I just had to get new tires so it rides pretty well. My brakes do need to get replaced though. Other than that, I don't really have any problems with it.
Justice M
on November 2, 2020
Great all around Toyota forerunner.
Has some electrical issues, but besides that we've only had to replace brakes and a few other minor repairs considering it has 190, 000 miles on it. Its a navy blue color and the paint on the hood, roof, door handles and other general areas. It does have 190, 000 miles on it and we bought it used.
Shelly G
on September 19, 2020
Overall I would definitely recommend this vehicle to anyone looking for a SUV.
The lights burn out easy, it is very reliable, gets good gas mileage, spacious, dependable in bad weather. I love the size it is not too big that it does not fit in parking spaces, but big enough for all the things we need to take with us. The navigation system & radio is nice, & my child loves the DVD player.
Brandi L
on August 23, 2020
Toyotas are dependable and will last for several hundreds of thousands of miles.
This is my second Toyota 4Runner. I love the size. I can pack a lot in, but they are still small enough to be manageable in a parking lot. They are reliable. My first 4Runner had 296,000 miles on it, and the one I drive now, is getting close. No complaints.
Amanda G

Very comfortable to drive. Gas Mileage is terrible, only 16 mpg Able to go at any time because of 4 wheel drive
The stereo system is very loud it can hurt your ears if you turn it up to high
Rob F
on July 26, 2020
Very safe vehicle to drive and very roomy.
Very reliable only routine maintenance costs so far invested in vehicle. A very solid riding SUV and the comfort on longer trips is awesome. The gas mileage is also very good for a v6 engine.
Rehan L
on July 25, 2020
It can drive smoothly. I can easily take left and right turns and have a smooth brake.
My vehicle is great in my opinion. I can smoothly drive and it is not too big, so I don't feel like I am driving a huge vehicle. The color is black which is a bit average and ordinary and that is what I dislike about it.
John P
on June 21, 2020
An exceptional SUV with room and gas economy
The 4runner is slightly large SUV. It is quite roomy comfortable and extremely easy to handle. Gas mileage is quite good at 17 mpg even with a V8 engine. So far I have over 285000 miles and still going strong.

Easy to drive. It feels almost too easy.
Love gas mileage. Love the ease of driving it. Steers great easy to fit in spaces. Interior is small and the stance feels small. I drove a bigger SUV previously.
Morgan J
on May 2, 2020
The amount of space truly is the greatest feature this car has to offer!
My only true concern is that there is a leak somewhere that, when it rains, causes the whole car to smell like moldy socks. Other than that, this car is wonderful, and I recommend it to people all the time! There is plenty of cargo space: I can fit a cello, an upright bass, and two people in the car with plenty of space. It gets decent gas mileage, and is good for traveling long distances.

Lousy dealer
I've caught my Toyota dealer charging me for things I didn't even need or that had been replaced the the prior visit. I simply don't trust them at all.
Greg H

Others should know about the spacious room inside the car. Some 4runners how 1 back row and others 2. With 1 back row, you have plenty of storage in the trunk. With 2 back rows, you have plenty of space and seats for passengers.
I like the MPG I receive with my 4runner. I love the interior design and the spacious room. It has a lot of room for storage. Also, I like the step up on the side of my car.
Lisa M

Decent size vehicle not too big, easy to park & good for traveling
Very reliable, however considering it is a sporty car it does not ride super smooth...I've been in older Hondas that rode more smooth
April H
on March 12, 2020
It's fun to drive and comfortable and convenient for families.
I love my 4Runner and will probably drive it as long as it is reliable and then get another one. I love pretty much everything about it except the seat fabric - tore at the seams over time, and the lift for the back door hatch - melted and became gummy where you grab it after a few years
Amanda H
on March 7, 2020
Six windows all automatic.
This things gets around easy handles great in the snow as well as on the beach both in four wheel drive and outside of four wheel drive. It has lots of space and I love the added moon roof and rear windshield windows that are fully automatic and movable. Only complaint I had was a transmission issue that was a tad pricier to repair due to it being a closed transmission.
John M
on February 23, 2020
Reliable. Safe. I have had it for years and only had routine maintenance
I love the size. Plenty of space for seating and trunk space. I do wish I had gotten 3 rows

Very reliable car it starts all the time except every 2-3 years for a battery. It also drives like a cadillac
Love my vehicle it drives very smoothly it starts all the time except when it needs a new battery. It very reliable if you do your oil changes every 3000-5000 miles . No complaints

Very secure, especially if you have kids! Good space, not too big or too small!
I have Toyota 4Runner, I was looking for a SUV car because i have kids. It was the best choice. Very secure. But i drive a lot far distance. Which makes stop by the gas station a lot. Lol

Never leave you stranded.
Is awesome, I love my suv. It goes everywhere and with a smooth ride. Needs gas, and it has a big tank. Complaints? The bumpers with time get kind of lose and it sounds, don't like it.
Katherine B
on January 22, 2020
Very comfortable. Loud speakers. Charger plugs. Aux insert. Easy chair adjustment.
My vehicle has tight turns, however it is a larger car. My model has many speakers but unlike other models mine does not have a sunroof. Since it is used I have had many problems that may have been coincidental due to it not being brand new. Have had to take it in many times for brake pads and oil leaks. But it is very reliable. I got rear ended and I wasn't injured while her car was totaled. It's very comfortable
Lauren L
on January 14, 2020
Overall, it is a very reliable car and I would buy one again.
I really like my car. It is the perfect size for me and my needs. It gets good gas mileage and has not had any serious issues since I've gotten it in 2008.

Leigh S

Very reliable, no new technology needed.
I bought this vehicle used, from a Toyota dealership, when it was four years and 51 thousand miles old. I've had it for nearly seven years now and have had nearly no problems with it. While it is not used for long daily commuting, but mostly short distance, around the town driving, I have also taken many road trips without incident. Having put 80 thousand miles on it since my purchase, I have made sure to keep up on all regular and recommended maintenance. Some minor problems I have experienced have been the abs assembly unit making a noise and possibly not working anymore, but no lights come on. I got my second set of new tires about a month ago and also replaced all five tire pressure sensors, which had probably never been done before. Those are only estimated to last seven years, but I got ten out of them, so that is a positive. There was a recall a few years back on some sort of part that caused the car to make an almost unnoticeable/slight jerk while driving. This would only happen randomly while driving, but stopped with foot on brake at a stop light or similar. I took it to a dealership to have the part replaced, but sometimes I still think I feel it. In general, I do not recommend dealerships for service, as I also had a different one leave out the transfer case plug when I had the 110, 000 mile service done. It drained all the way out and I drove for a couple days with dry gears. After taking it to a local oil change station, they had to put 5 quarts in, so I wouldn't be surprised if my rear-end goes out sooner than later because of that poor service job. Overall, the I love the features in this car and am unimpressed by the technology in newer vehicles. It has just what I need and has always proved reliable, comfortable and nice to look at. Although, my husband does not agree about it is comfortableness, but he rarely drives or rides in it, so that is irrelevant.

My 4Runner takes me on adventures!
I love my 2008 Toyota 4Runner! The only issues I've had with my Toyota is the master cylinder, making air pumping noises. This doesn't affect the performance of the vehicle or the brakes. I recently replaced the following: spark plugs, air filter and brake pads. This SUV runs strong and is comfortable for long road trips.
Olivia H

Toyota 4runner is durable, reliable, and stylish.
I have had no issues with my 4runner until the last 2 years. I bought my 4runner new in 2009, it is a 2008 model and no issues until 2016. I had some minor fixes that cost about $2000 to 'fix it all', and since then no problems except I recently had to replace the gas cap which was $38. Toyota 4runner is durable, reliable and stylish.
Courtney R
on November 4, 2019
Love my Toyota, but one thing I'd change..
I love my 4runner. It is very comfortable to drive and feels more like a car than a big SUV. I love the stereo system and manufacturers speakers. I have not had to replace them. I have also been really happy with how easy it has been to maintain. We have taken good care of it and have had no major issues. I do hate the mpg. I fill up my 4runner at least once a week in comparison to my husband’s Honda CR-V which is every 1 1/2 weeks.
Crystal V
on November 1, 2019
Durability of Toyota 4Runner.
I love the towing capabilities, it comfortably fits our family of 4 and can accommodate another person without a child’s car seat. The only thing that is unfortunate is how old it is at this point. Gas mileage could be better to make the vehicle more of a favorite.
Deborah B

Fun to drive (4 wheel drive) Comfortable for 4 on road trips
The Toyota 4Runner is the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. We take it on all family vacations or road trip,180,000 plus miles and still going strong. The only issue I've had is back window and wiper not working properly, the opener for the back has melted and leaves black sticky stuff on your hands. I love my 4Runner and will buy a new one when the time comes.
Emily D

Toyota, til death do you part!
If you want a vehicle that's spacious, reliable and fun to drive, you're looking for a Toyota 4Runner! I've had my 2008 4Runner for three years and should have gotten one a lot sooner! It has several compartments and storage and an include roof rack, and sunroof. Comfortable seating and easy to fold seats. The look of the vehicle is really nice and there are a variety of upgrades and add-on attachments available for all 4runners. I've had several friends that have put well over 200k miles on their Toyota and I'm planning on doing the same!
Katheryn W

Toyota's outstanding 4runner!
Excellent performance, mileage, comfort. Always reliable; have had no problems with it and it has almost 80, 000 miles on it. Even though it is a 2008 model, has stayed in style. Current models have not changed that much. Excellent gas mileage. Lumbar support in drivers seat is a life-saver!

Sr5 gets me where I need to go.
Very reliable, comfortable drive. I have had my car for a year and a half and it has been the best car I have had. I have been able to get to commute everyday to and from my college. I feel safe when going on long road trips to the beach or mountains. It is a very safe car and very roomy if others are riding with me.

Easy to maintain and easy to drive.
My Toyota 4runner has been very reliable and is appealing to look at. One feature that we really like is that the regular maintenance such as oil changes are easy and we can do them. Another feature that we like is the fact that vehicle is very easy to drive and has good visibility.

Terrific family big car of 5.
The performance of the 4-runner accelerates at a very fast pace, also the engine is very loud. The only down side of the car is, that it is 8 cylinders. The gas is very pricey. The car has terrific grip. So on rainy and snowy days you have no worries. Lastly it is a spacious car for a family of 5 members.
Denise H
on July 24, 2019
It's a reliable vehicle. I wish it was a little more roomier but satisfied with the way it currently is.
I like the 4Runner. My last 3 vehicles prior were also 4Runners. My only complaint is that I wish there were more plug in ports.

Toyota 4runner is a reliable and stylish vehicle.
The 4 runner has been a very reliable vehicle that has suited all needs for our family. It has been reliable and gets good mileage and has retained value. I work from home so it is kept in the garage and has low miles given the year. Toyota is a dependable vehicle that you can count on for having for many years to come.
Haley G
on July 11, 2019
It is a very liable car considering the miles and age of it.
Car side door will not open from inside. Also the engine has problems and windshield wipers as well. It is performance is very liable and it has 160, 000 miles on it and it still runs perfectly well. It is really comfortable the seats are not leather but are still really well. Mostly everything in the car still works pretty new since we've got the car.
Cole D
on July 5, 2019
Versatile, safe, reliable.
I love to go camping and fishing and the off road capabilities are great. It has removable 3rd row seating which is nice because sometimes you need more room than seats. It drives smoothly. The rear window rolls all the way down. Perfect for my dog. Great in the snow. No large mechanical issues.
Matthew N

Toyota 4runner vehicles are wonderful. I have had my automobile for over ten years and have had nearly zero issues with it. They are extremely reliable, wonderful to drive, and very comfortable. I will definitely look at other 4runners in the future.
Lauren O
on June 28, 2019
My 4runner is in it for the long haul!
The most amazing thing about my 4runner is its reliability. I bought it brand new in 2007 and here it is, 2019, and it has never broken down on me. Not once. Maintenance is always very routine - oil change, tire rotation, brake fluid, etc. I have never had to replace any major components of my car. Although it is an SUV, it drives 'tight' and smooth. There is plenty of room for my husband and the 3 kids to stretch their legs and the seats adjust to your comfort. I have no complaints.
Peter F
on June 15, 2019
No major issues with my car since I bought it used 5 years ago. I've only had to replace the brakes and tires (as with any car). Still runs great after 140,000+ miles.
Not all 4runners have 4-wheel drive as a standard option.
Madison A
on June 13, 2019
Perfect for family road trips
It lasted a long time and gets really good MPG. Rarely had any issues. The AC stopped working but it was an easy fix. We have put 200k miles on it in 11 years and see it going at least another 100k. We use it for family road trips and long drives. We also use it to haul a boat trailer

Currently, it has a loose heat shield, which makes it sound like it's rattling at times. It isn't a problem in terms of the vehicle running.
It is a recent purchase. I bought it due to its alleged reliability and length of life. Mileage isn't great but isn't horrible. It's fairly comfortable to drive as I'm a tall individual.

Amazing, long lasting SUV.
It is amazing. I have had it for over 10 years and haven't had one problem with it. The performance is great and it is reliable. It is white, silver trim with tan cloth interior. I wish I would have purchased leather. It has around 160k miles on it and the only problem I have had is the gas gauge needed to be replaced.

Great room, bad gas mileage.
What I really do not like is that it does not have great gas mileage. I took it camping with my friends and the five of us fit inside it comfortably but when it came to filling up on gas was a pain, and I had to ask for gas money. Other than that, there is plenty of room and its great.
Courtney P

Durable and long lasting SUV.
Love my cars durability and functionality. Previously had a truck and after it was totaled I got a little car. I traded it for my 4runner and love it. Rides smooth and haven't had any major issues with it so far. Being a tall girl the seats are too tall for me, I cannot wear my hair up without it hitting the roof. The shape of the standard seats becomes uncomfortable for me on long road trips as well. I bought this knowing it would last me years but unfortunately i'll have to invest in after market products to help with overall comfort.

Toyota 4Runner: Reliable, Durable, & Overall Wonderful Vehicle
I bought this car with 144k miles on it & it now has over 275k miles on it. Other than routine maintenance, I have NEVER had any issues with my car. It still runs great. And I gave my car the nickname "Old Faithful" because it has been such a reliable vehicle. It is very comfortable and I would HIGHLY recommend a Toyota 4Runner. I plan on keeping this one for another 3-4 years, but when I go to purchase a new vehicle, I am almost positive that it will be a Toyota 4Runner.

Toyota 4Runner is a great car that is very reliable with awesome control!
I love this car! It has plenty of room for multiple passengers. It also has tons of room for moving or hauling big loads when you put the seats down. My biggest complaint is that the gas mileage is not great. And that I has a really big tank so it is very expensive to fill, usually cost me around $60. The four-wheel-drive is very helpful in the snow and has great control in bad weather. I have owned the car for three years and it has not had any maintenance issues. With that being said I do keep up on oil changes and tire rotation and general maintenance.
Mandi D
on November 17, 2018
Amazing reliable comfortable and easy accessible!
I love my 4runner it has been great in every aspect! I get great gas mileage around town and on road trips also! It has never failed me I also owned another 4runner before my purchase of this newer model. I love how cold the a/c stays in the summer and how warm the heater is in the winter!
