| 2008 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 240hp 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Fit and finish are very good, as expected in an "entry" level luxury vehicle, not MB or BMW quality in terms of materials, but above most of the crowd. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 240hp 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
quiet, no rattles, nice materials |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 240hp 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
well build with high quality finishes, unlike US manfacturers vehicles that fit and finish is sub par. |

Appears to be well assembled with no quality problems. |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
No squeaks or rattles. Well fit and put together |
| 2010 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
feels good |
| 2010 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic 4WD w/low range |
So far 10,000 km they appear to be excellent |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 236-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD |
It feels solid and feels like there were no corners cut in the building of the vehicle. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 260-horsepower 4.7L V8 5-speed automatic AWD w/low range |
The 4Runner is made in one of the two highest rated factories in the world. Top notch quality. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 236-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD |
Previously, have always bought American, but found I had to be towed to repair shop way too often. No break-downs with the Toyota so far. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 236-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
You can tell that they thought about everything. Especially control placement. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 236-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
A big problem with 4wd vehicles can be wheel bearing hub assemblies. 4Runner owners don't know what these things are - they never die on 4Runners... All the parts are excellent. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 236-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
Good quality in the Limited model. Built to last with durable and easy to clean materials. Well engineered underside with easy to service parts and high quality components. Everything feels substantial and has good heft. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 236-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
Very well put together vehicle. The 4Runner is made to go anywhere with few worries about breakdowns. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 236-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
High quaility materials are evidenced by their longevity. Now days "Made in Japan" means quaility workmanship. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 236-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
very comfortable and durable construction |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.7L V8 5-speed automatic AWD w/low range |
Everything from the seating surfaces to carpets to plastics to switches is of high quality. Not fancy, but good stuff. Heavy duty frame, solid body construction, no rattles. |
| 2004 | 4dr SUV 245-horsepower 4.0L V6 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
High quality, rugged finishes throughout. Design minimizes high wear (debris flung from tires contained in wheel wells, under running board, etc.). All are professionally fitted together, exterior, interior, and under the hood. |
| 2004 | 4dr SUV 245-horsepower 4.0L V6 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
Nicely put together and tight as a drum. No squeaks or rattles. |
| 2003 | 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 4.7L V8 5-speed automatic RWD |
everything is sturdy nothing has broken |
| Materials and Workmanship of the Toyota 4Runner: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 236-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
Letters on side of SUV came off during routine hand car wash. Interior trim is painted, need to be careful with spilling anything on the dash. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 236-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
I do not like the plastic interior, I know all vehicles are this way, but I still do not like it. |
| 2003 | 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 4.7L V8 5-speed automatic RWD |
The failures mentioned above regarding reliability and durability indicate my concerns with Toyota installing some substandard materials. However, the powertrain was the best thing in the vehicle and continues to function well. |
