4Runner and Xterra Article Reference: trail4runner.com/2018/05/20/t...
The Toyota 4Runner is one of the most popular vehicles, and most reliable vehicles in Toyota's lineup. The problem is, they can cost a LOT on the used market, even with high mileage. Today we'll discuss the best off-road capable alternatives to the 4runner, with reliability and price as two of the most important metrics, although one of our suggestions is higher priced.

CORRECTION: The FJ also has the 4.0L. In addition to that, if you are looking at FJs, inspect the frame. They tend to rust prematurely in some areas of the U.S. It's worth a hard look underneath the vehicle.

The only real good alternative to a 4runner is a newer one.

@TheCarGuyOnline 4 месяца назад

Haha, you might be right but not everyone can spend $40k+, and for off-road use many don’t want to.

@BigAltimaEnergy719 4 месяца назад

It’s really hard to justify buying a used one especially when it’s also a 5th gen, those things hold their value so well like the FJ cruiser…

Great video, completely on point! Can’t wait to see the new 4 runner when it comes out

@TheCarGuyOnline 4 месяца назад

guessing it will have the same engine lineup that the new Tacoma has, 4cyl turbo. I'm a little disappointed in all new cars going turbo/small displacement but there aren't many other alternatives anymore.

@geraldg8327 4 месяца назад

The FJ came with a 4.0L V6 1GRFE just like the 4Runner, not a 3.5L.

@TheCarGuyOnline 4 месяца назад

Doh, thanks for the catch. I’ll have to update…

@jimowens381 4 месяца назад

I would have to agree on the Xterra. They were very solid as long as you avoid/fix the smod issue. Very solid motor and a beast off road

@TheCarGuyOnline 4 месяца назад

Yeah I'm surprised more people don't realize it. Just look at how many miles some of them have on the used market, they are very durable.

@pattydavis6548 4 месяца назад

Good info!!

@jimowens381 4 месяца назад

The honda pilot is a pretty good alternative. Maybe not as capable off road but very acceptable. Reliability is A-1

@TheCarGuyOnline 4 месяца назад

Yeah I like the pilots and other mid sized SUVs, but this was admittedly targeted toward those that want to use it as an off-road monster as well, with aftermarket support.

Maybe add the R51 Nissan Pathfinder that also came with a V8 option as well

@TheCarGuyOnline 4 месяца назад

Ahh yes, the good ole 5.6L. Definitely one of their best engines made.

My experience as a retired auto repair shop owner is that Nissans have electrical problems, both in the drivetrain and in the body. What is your experience?

I had a 2007 FJ I traded for a 2013 Tacoma. I miss that FJ. It was a great vehicle. I wish they were still made. Sad Face

Wondering how the new xterras will compare. They don’t look as cool as the older ones in my opinion. Thanks for the info!

@TheCarGuyOnline 4 месяца назад

Hard to say. They look like they are targeting city life xterra owners not the off road, I guess we’ll see.

@slagletoby 4 месяца назад

The 2013 Toyota Highlander with a 2 inch lift kit would make a great buggy.

@TheCarGuyOnline 4 месяца назад

It would probably make due for most people, but for some real off-road enthusiasts that bang these 4runners they might miss the other overbuilt pieces underneath (cast iron pieces)....though with enough skid plates it might be good enough :).

@oleksii1406 Месяц назад

Unfortunately in North America you cannot buy Mitsubishi Pajero. Will be excellent competitor to toyota. In EU it is very popular. In Japan military truck type 73 is based on mitsubishi pajero.

@mohammeds5458 Месяц назад

Many alternatives to the 4Runner are not available in your country. From Toyota: Prado Lc70 series Fortuner From nissan Patrol y61 X-terra (unfortunately, only 4 cylinders) From Mitsubishi: Pajero Montero From isuzu: MUX (only has diesel engine) From ford: Everest

@Harry_Dunn 4 месяца назад

2 of the 3 are also basically toyotas... and the other one is only as reliable if you get certain years tho... this is why we f with the runners.

@TheCarGuyOnline 4 месяца назад

The xterra is very reliable. I have hands on and two in family…and much cheaper than the runner, it’s the best used option given how runners hold their value. Some people may not know that, but yes runners are great, just some people can’t afford them

FJ for long distance is far more comfortable than the 4Runner.

@TheCarGuyOnline 4 месяца назад

Interesting…what do you like more about the FJ?

@Dguallpa98 4 месяца назад

@@TheCarGuyOnline I drove my FJ from Alaska to the East Coast ( New York) together with a 5th Gen 4 runner limited I used to own. I've taken my FJ to Moab, Utah as well and the ride comfort by far is better on the FJ. A person doesn't need much modifications to make an FJ off-road worthy. 4 Runners in the other hand need more mods. FJs are technically reliable jeeps

@oleksii1406 Месяц назад

Useless information. Alternative to 4runner is something outside toyota brand . Why did you put GX460 or FJ cruiser? Toyota line is very expensive.
