Pros: Nothing Cons: Everything
Look out Disney World there is a new theme park in town. Its name is the Toyota dealer ship. The main attraction is the Toyota 4runner, it twists it turns and most of all it flips more than any other ride in its class. I had one once. I was driving home...

Pros: Great family car, good snow handling Cons: limited seat and steering wheel adjustments The Bottom Line: The Toyota 4-runner is definatley a good choice if you are looking to purchase and SUV.
My parents bought thier 1998 Toyota 4-runner in early 2000. We previousy owned a 1996 Toyota Tacoma and were planning a trip to Tahoe. My sister and I were getting a bit to tall to be sitting in the tiny backseat of that truck, especially for such a long...

Pros: Attractive Roomy Cons: Uncomfortable bumpy ride
We bought our Toyota 4 Runner because we researched Consumer Reports for reliability information and it was also one of the best looking SUV's around but good looks and Reliability were the good points I can tell you about. It was terrible on gas even...

Pros: handling Cons: needs bigger tires
I have owned my Four-cylinder, 4wd 1998 Toyota 4Runner for about 15 months, and I am totally satisfied. The V-6 model with about the same options would of cost about nine-thousand more. For the price I paid compared to the V-6 models I got a great...

Pros: Quality, reliability and good looks Cons: poor controls/displays, be careful off-road
This is my third SUV after a Isuzu Trooper and Jeep Grand Cherokee. I bought the limited because my wife loved it.
The 4Runner has a very high quality chassis. With 35,000 miles, it is as tight and solid as day 1. Reliability has always been a...

Pros: Great interior, sound system, four wheel drive Cons: Heavy, rides like a truck
This is an excellent SUV. The inside is comfortable and roomy, and feels like a car. The sound system is nice (although not much bass). It's generally a smooth ride, although sometimes it can get rather bumpy. I like the car a lot, but as much as...

Pros: smooth ride, relatively quiet ride, fun to drive, attracts attention, safe Cons: stiff suspension, needs more horsepower and acceleration
The Toyota 4-Runner is an amazing SUV. It has a smooth, comfortable ride and is most importantly...safe! The 4-Runner has been named one of the safest SUV's and one of the least likely to roll. I bought this car because it looks really nice, and it is...

Pros: reliable, roomy, long lasting, durable, comfy back seats, good visibility Cons: pricey, not eco.friendly w/gas, front seats are not comfy for a long haul The Bottom Line: A must look at when comparing to SUV models within the era.
I leased my 1998 SR5 4-Runner new, then purchasing it in 2001 (no choice there). I have about 182k miles on it as of 12/04. Of course after reading (i hope) all the reviews in this section, you are pleased with what's said about the ...

Pros: roomy and powerful Cons: low miles per gallon ratio
I strongly believe that the Toyota 4Runner was a good choice for me. I bought the car because I was looking for something that was roomy but was not a mini-van. It is really fun to drive by yourself, but it also has enough room for a mid-sized...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes 
Pros: Solid - Dependable, roomy Cons: Smallish gas tank, mileage, paint quality, step up height, no dark leather interior The Bottom Line: I you want a truck, this is it. I love this car, I just wish it had a larger gas tank.
My 3 year lease is up, and guess what, Im getting another 4Runner. I had a chance to Tow my buddy's Jeep Cherokee out of the mud with it. Great ground clearance kept me going when he got stuck. The flip side is it is a chore for my 78 year old mother to...

Pros: Look, Ride, Price, Security Cons: Height from ground, breaking in bad weather
Let me begin by stating that I wasn't really in the market for a sports utility, but when I did decide, 4Runner won out over three other competitors in my book. I wanted a vehicle that was reliable, easy on gas, could hold to the road, and would keep up...

Pros: Solid, dependable, feeling of safety Cons: Stiff ride, height of the vehicle
I purchased my 1998 4-Runner for the same reason that the majority of people do - Toyota's reputation.
Solid, dependable, and a feeling of safety when driving the vehicle are the main aspects that I truly enjoy about the 4-Runner. However,...

Pros: Comfort, Displays, ALMOST everything. Cons: Engine power and Front passenger leg space. The Bottom Line: Solid car
I just turned in my 4runner after a lenghty lease and it was a very sad parting but it allows me to do an honest review.
COMFORT and ROOMINESS:
Being 5'10" This truck seems as though it was designed for me ... everything fit. The...

Pros: luxury and style at its best Cons: very low fuel economy
The 1998 Toyota 4Runner Limited is a great car with features and luxury. Lots of cargo, and foot space are one the great things about this car. Even though it is the most expensive model in the 4Runner lineup, it is worth it! Features that come in the...
