I've had my SR5 for a year now and I still can't stop watching these 5th gen 4runner review videos 🤣 Makes me feel like I'm looking to buy one even tho i already have one 😂
Thank you for review the OG 5th gen. Don't see many reviews with the old face. I have a 2011 and it's so reliable and easy to maintain on your own. The best model is the limited for full time 4wd.
Great review 😊 ! I traded in my 2017 Ford F150 V8 for a 2024 4RUNNER just for it's simplicity and durability and I intend to keep it for many of years .
Just purchased a 2024 4runner limited and couldn't be any happier that I made that decision. Always been a huge fan of the 5th gen 4runner since it came out on 2009. Love it, it's my daily driver. My 4runner is fully loaded so it has that fancy suspension, but let me tell you it makes a big difference in ride comfort. I rent a 2022 4runner and puy about 2,800 miles back and forth from Jersey to South Carolina, so I'm very familiar with the 4runner. I also used to work on both 4th and 5th gen 4runner as previous Toyota tech. Highly recommended it, grab one while you can because I have to wait for a little be for mine. Last but not least, yes fuel economy is trash, but you don't buy this truck for fuel economy. You buy a 4runner to appreciate how simple and straightforward everything is, with some modern creatures comfort. I will add some mod to mine, nothing crazy because I have a small child and my wife is on the short side so I actually had to running boards to the truck because of it. Hey Happy wife, happy life. Nevertheless, I'm very happy with my purchase. Hey Ben, keep up with the good work and hope your channel continues to growth.
Hey Bern! Love the video! 4Runners are wonderful. I currently have a 4th gen V8 limited and it is my favorite vehicle, and I’ve owned many! I used to own a 3rd gen, which I also loved but the ride quality of my 4th gen is so much better.
Wow! It tows up to 5,000lbs? Thats great! My 2011 Suburban LT 1500 with 5.3L, and 3.08 rear end gears only tows 5,500lbs max. If i just swap to 3.73 and beef up the suspension, sure, it'll tow about 8,500lbs, but for a V6 4.0L to tow 5,000lbs, that's far more superior than a stock base model suburban! Toyota is truly amazing!
Mine is the same, but 2010 one and color light gray ! I only upgraded the suspension and front bumper with TRD pro look as well as the tires and wheels 🛞 also from TRD pro version! This truck is a beast, love it!!!
Funny I just bought this same model less than 30 days ago with 162k miles on it and it is still such a great truck. Like your s mine is still really clean inside and out.
My uncle had his 2010 Toyota 4Runner since 2011 and it hardly gives him problem and only has 150,869 miles on it but he use his 2015 Chevy equinox ltz that gives him problems😅
@@BernonCars whoops I meant 98 4runner. I have luckily not had to drive a newer model. Had a 2023 Highlander base and it was a dreadful vehicle to drive. And that was unibody. I can't imagine how badly the current 4runner drives.
