Pros: Excellent Toyota quality. Riding height, narrow width and design make it "safari worthy" Cons: Rear seat has poor leg room. 20 more horsepower The Bottom Line: This is why Toyota is a well respected brand. The craftsmanship is first rate It handles well and can cruise anywhere from suburbia to the Outback.
I inherited this 4Runner from my father in 1999 when my Honda Civic was totaled. He gave it to me so he could buy a 2000 4Runner. My father takes GREAT care of his vehicles, and when I got this baby it only had 37,000 miles on it. It now has 118,000 ...

Pros: Reliable, safe and still looks new Cons: Small gas tank, only seats 5
Owning a Toyota 4-Runner is a pure joy. Not only is it a maintenance free vehicle, but it is as reliable as death and taxes. I purchased this truck for the real estate business, because of the terrain that I travel, off road and on the road. In 5 years...

I can't seem to part with my 1993 4RUNNER. Over 78,000 miles and not one problem. In fact, I am still on the original Goodyear rubber and have at least 3,000 miles left according to a local Goodyear dealer. I'm tempted from time to time to get another...

Pros: Well built, tough and stable Cons: Gas mileage, a bit underpowered, low head clearance on entry/exit The Bottom Line: I would recommend the '93 4Runner to anyone. It's dependable and capable of anything you would ask of an SUV.
I bought my '93 4Runner a little over 1 year ago with 240,000 miles on it. Standard Transmission, 3.0 V6 SR5. With that high of mileage, I wouldn't have bought anything that didn't say "Toyota" on it. I called a friend who's a mechanic and asked his ...

After getting into a car accident with a car that I had, I needed to get something new...something I would feel safe in. I picked the Toyota 4runner. I'm a truck kind of girl. Every time I look at my 4runner, I get all excited. IT's very powerful....

Pros: Comfortable interior, good-looking exterior, low-end torque, dependable, cheap parts Cons: Some cosmetic flaws, not very frilly, poor gas mileage, underpowered at high speeds The Bottom Line: Very good reliable car you will be happy with it.
I have owned a 4Runner for almost 2 years now and I have always been happy with this SUV. The seats are very low to the ground to provide a lower center of gravity for off-roading. I have the SRV5 6 cylinder 5-speed version. Its one of the lower-end ...

Pros: Feels like a truck, stable in rain/snow, not too pricey after 10yrs Cons: Head gasket recall, gas guzzler, some squeaking (old truck!) The Bottom Line: I would definitely buy this truck again! Its versatile enough for no-nonsense street driving and fun enough to turn into a monster truck!
I just bought my used 1993 Toyota 4Runner SR5 V6 4WD a few months ago. I bought it with 93k miles on it and in perfect condition. I took it to a Pep Boys shop where they did a complete 120-point checkup on it and the only problem it had was a...

Pros: Reliable and tough. A true Sports UTILITY Vehicle. Cons: Gas Mileage, low power. The Bottom Line: Buy one. If you could only own one vehicle this is the one you should get.

Pros: Style. Runs great. Comfortable. Great in bad weather Cons: bad Gas mileage. It is narrow so it only fits 5. Tight fit for 5. The Bottom Line: I would recommend this to everyone. Very dependable. Better than most other suv's
When I first saw the 4 runner I had to have it. I wanted a 4 wheel drive anyhow, and loved the look of the Toyota. Only 93 and up. Older models are boxy, where as the newer are a bit more sleek in style. I own a 1993 v6 silver fully loaded 5 ...
