My Ô04 4Runner has been nothing but good and reliable for years. Toyota knows how to build an SUV that won't back down. Comfortable to drive in the city, on the highway, or down a muddy trail in the woods. I've driven it cross country three times and had zero issues. The odometer is now reading 239,000 miles, and the truck is still going strong. Big enough to fit all of my fishing and camping gear, strong enough to pull a trailer and tough enough to give me peace of mind. Not exactly a fuel-efficient vehicle but not quite a gas-guzzler either. I'd rather have the reassurance of quality and knowing that I will never get stuck anywhere I go than the extra couple MPGs. Very little heavy maintenance has needed to be done. A few things that you would expect out of a car pushing 240K miles. I love this vehicle and will drive it until it turns into dust and ashes, and then I'll keep those ashes in an urn on my mantle and buy another 4Runner.

The 2001 4Runner was by far the best vehicle I've ever owned. It was reliable, tough and fun. It would go through snow and mud like nobody's business. Also, with the sunroof and really spacious storage in the back, it was a fun family car. I never had many issues at all except for standard maintenance and I drove it a lot. I used it for my business as well and carried around everything from computers to tools. I really loved that vehicle and would recommend one to anyone.
