My last two Land Cruisers have gone over 300k. Proof thats real! They are built to last, be safe, and give family a real posh, well made, vehicle. Kudos Toyota!!!! Thank you!
Own 06 Highlander AWD with 334k and O7 Fundra 4x4 with 287k So, I never had to think about payments for a long time and buying another auto. Super nice!!!!!!
I drive Toyota and my bank account is growing like crazy. It’s nice when you don’t have to make payments or pay repair bills. I’ll easily be able to buy a new Toyota when my current one finally dies.
But for one..All are Honda or Toyota...not surprised. Mark, you are relentless with your great videos. Many people should be thankful for your accurate and truthful opinions.
Yes also shocked he mentioned this one too. He always says things like ‘ small engine, turbochargers and cvt transmissions won’t last. This engine also has passed history of oil delusion problems 🤷♂️
Earlier model hondas have built somewhat of a reputation from the 1.5T. the CRVS with oil dilution in colder climates and the accord 1.5T. But the civics with the 1.5T have seemed to stand the test of time. I’ve seen Civic si’s with 180k on them. Others with at least 150k. And somebody put 200k trouble free miles on a 2022 1.5T Civic over one year. Seems like the engine is great in the civics while other models I can’t really say.
I had a 2020 Honda CRV and it got totaled at no fault of my own. I have the 2023 Honda CRV now and I like the looks of it but I don't like the fact that they keep making the CRV bigger and bigger. If I want anything larger than a CRV, I would get the Pilot or Passport, no need to keep making the CRV larger and larger.
@@ECPP Exactly, I mean I'm having a hard time fitting this CRV in my garage already and I probably need to extend the driveway cement because when I back out or drive into the garage, it's going on the grass and makes a mess, specially when it's raining. 😂
Are you nuts? Rear pax room and storage is a HUGE deal, esp with a family or Ubering part time. CRV, Accord, and Civic are sportier, more refined, roomier, and more fun to drive than RAV4, Camry, and Corolla.
I own a Honda Shuttle in the Netherlands from 2000, 2.3 liter. The engine has almost 500.000 Km’s on it and it runs like new. Super reliable. It’s not a suv but yeah.
I agree the regular 4runner is wishy washy on the road, but if you get one with kdss it will corner much flatter and since the kdss version gets stiffer shocks it won't have that horrible nose dive issue when braking.
I never considered the other vehicles that you presented, as I have always been a 4runner fanboy, as I own one. But if I need an upgrade to a newer vehicle, I think those others are worthy of consideration! Great video! Lots of good choices out there.
@@thomashelm6931 haha, true that grill is a bit much but the rest of the vehicle is so sturdy, it’s a compelling consideration. Great tech and capable and for sure it will last a long time. How is the 4Runner so far?
In addition: 1) MDX more affordable derivatives: Honda Pilot and Passport. Their V6 and auto trannies will last 15 - 20 years if properly maintained. PERIOD! 2) Any V8 from GM has the crappy cylinder deactivation which MUST be deactivated to ensure engine longevity, which, in theory could last to 300K mi. I cannot say the same thing about the 10-speed from Fordlet or Che'Ford. 3) Sorry but the fun to drive Honda CR-V has a TURBO and a CVT....At least one of those two items will not make it to 300K miles. The BASIC Toyota RAV4, a boring vehicle to drive for sure and not as cool looking has a large, normally aspirated 4 cylinder and 8-speed automatic transmission. Guess which one will last longer without any major problems?
Honda also has the crappy cylinder deactivation technology called VCM on their V6 engines, so it would be a good idea to disable or delete it if you keep it for over 5-10 years.
It all depends on the transmission, I have a 2009 Nissan Murano SL AWD with 412k ish. I regularly change the CVT fluid. I read the CVT doesn’t like heat or sudden acceleration. So I’m sure it helps I don’t accelerate heavily. My coworker owns a 2012 Nissan Juke AWD with 289k, as of last week. In her defense, she doesn’t leave Aquidneck Island in RI, and doesn’t go over 45MPH. Her Juke should last forever lmao
I have only owned 1 Honda in my life and that will be the last!The transaxle went at 33,000 kilometres in my 2003 Honda Accord! Honda had nothing but problems for 5 years in their Acura and Honda Accords! Instead of stepping to the plate they went American Standards. They denied denied and denied that there were problems! I have owned since 2005 all Toyota's ,2007 Tundra,2014Tundra, 2011 Venza, 2021 Highlander, I have only had problems with the 2007 the air injection valve went when I was 2500 miles away from home! The dealership apologized rented me a car and had it fixed the next day free of charge! I will be buying a lexus suv next within a couple years! I will only buy Toyota products from now on even my wife corolla is reliable and the seats are comfortable, my back never gets sore no matter what toyota I ride in!
Acura such a excellent vehicles. GMC is decent car and handle great. Nissan and Infiniti great cars. Toyotas excellent cars sedan not SUVs. (except Lexuses) and 4Runner is unaffordable like a Lexus
funny, i know someone who bought it, and had a terrible grinding sound. Turns out the transmission fluid wasn't properly filled coming out of the factory.
My Kia Borrrego did 14 years with only one issue. I broke one of the wheel bearings by loading 2,000 lbs of tiles in the back and driving it cross town. That was about year 12. Other than that, no issues. I'm sure it still works for whoever owns it now. But I traded it in last month to get a 2024 4Runner, as it seems this is the last year to get a new 5th Gen 4Runner.
Just sold my 2014 SQ5 with 65K miles. Issues with the MMi not booting, then $4K for front bushings, then dealer said timing chain is due for $10K, and rear AWD differential at $10K, and engine mounts have wear at $5K. Run away from this, and will never buy German again.
I was looking for 4Runner, but it looks like too pricey for truck body on frame SUV. $54k I want but dealer adds options and tax and fees push up to $61k.
Other SUV's/crossovers will also last for a long time are the Ford Expedition, Mazda CX-9, Mazda CX-5, Mitsubishi Outlander and the Subaru Forester. Thanks.
Acura is Honda's high-end vehicle. Honda manufactures their Acura line only in the USA and Canada since 1986. Ohio, USA produces all the Acuras for N. American and the Alliston Honda plant in Ontario has produced over 800,000 Acura vehicles, including the first generation MDX and ZDX models, as well as the Canadian-exclusive EL and CSX sedans.
My bros 2017 Durango GT has been sitting in the dealer for 7 months now. The transmission is having issues at 120k Miles. The dealer replaced the transmission at 109k a year before it gave out again.
Weird, I don't even care about cars that much. But I keep watching your videos. I think I got it- you care about quality. You'll call out BS workmanship and call out where things are right. Keep sharing your knowledge and keep talking about quality, good and bad. Sometimes RU-vid gives a little niche for good people to do their thing.
I agree with all those beauties but that gmc, Subaru has some great suvs also , I was pricing used 4 runners they were all over 25k , but they are tanks and I was also looking at the v6 awd sienna , now bruins at rangers is about to air , upstate new york, go bruins
I bought my husband a 2023 Ford Escape Hybrid as a birthday present. I personally own a Tesla Model 3 and a 2006 Hyundai but I plan to replace the Hyundai with a new Lexus RX450h or Toyota RAV4.
Most cars exept jeep,or chrysler will last if you maintain the following change transmission every sixty five thousand miles also differential and tranfer case. Coolant every three years,oil change. Oil /filter every four thousand Miles. Also do not drive like a mad man and take care of your car. Most drivers will never do this will drive and trade in every three years. The american sport will never change.
My nephew bought a used 10 yr old mdx suv cash. Every 3 minths he was spending money by the hundreds to get something fix on it. He traded it in recently for a Nissan small car.
Lovely vehicles but the GLE has some quality and electronic issues, so only buy if you have extended warranty, or a decent bankroll for servicing. Still beautiful, and worth it for those who do not worry about maintenance and reliability.
I know the mdx is reliable, but the MDX type s has its own turbo charged engine that the tlx type s uses, do you think that engine would be just as reliable ?
Why is my Toyota Sequoia not on there love my 2010 tree it tough as nails bro 300km on it now no probs oil changes and brakes,good to go another 15 years
Great video, but I have a hard time believing that that CRV cvt trans will last over 120k miles. Also that GMC is far out of my list. I would switch them 2 by the Honda Pilot and the Rav4.
Agree the pilot should be on the list. But I think the previous gen with the odyssey didnt have the best transmission. The GMC Yukon, Chevy Suburban & Chevy Tahoe are on the list of vehicles of longest lasting vehicles next a bunch of Toyotas. With the 4 Runner officially being the most dependable vehicle in the long run.
That mdx is nice but with honda and acura mdx you have to wait for it to accelerate when you put your foot on the gas Toyota v6 is way more silky smooth and powerful
