Default 1999 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons A member in New Jersey, United States Trying to improve MPG above 17 may not happen. The previous owner Beat this poor old 4Runner, only put in a new trans, which is now slipping ever-so-slightly (not low fluid). Had to put in new exhaust - all, and mass air flow sensor. Maybe that's to be expected at... |

2015 Jeep Wrangler Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh Heavy and far from aerodynamic, the Jeep Wrangler doesn't earn impressive EPA fuel economy ratings: 17 mpg city, 21 mpg highway. In the suburbs I could only get the average mpg readout to top 20 if I was very easy on the pedals. In most of my suburban driving the... Comparison vehicle: 2014 Toyota 4Runner |

2014 Toyota 4Runner Limited Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh The 4Runner's dated powertrain--its automatic transmission is down three gear ratios compared to the Jeep's--and brick-like aerodynamics aren't good for fuel economy. EPA ratings are just 17 city, 21 highway. The Jeep with its V6 engine does the same in city driving, but 3 mpg better on the highway. Plus... Comparison vehicle: 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee |
2007 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons Member1664 If fuel cost is a concern, then this is definitely not the vehicle to have. Manages 18mpg combined if driven carefully. Does what it does extremely well so nothing unexpected. |

2007 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons A member in Illinois, United States The dash readout is optimistic. I often though I was getting over 25mpg only to calculate as low as 14--on the highway! Ultimately, this was the 4Runners undoing. I traded it for a much more efficient Camry. |

2011 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons Member4843 Not really bad, but how about a hybrid? A Prius 4runner? |

2006 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons Member4801 Lousy mileage around town. ~ 18. |

2010 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons Member4253 Mid size and large SUVs are not good on fuel economy. While shopping this market fuel economy was a consideration. Fuel economy is projected at 17 mpg in the city and 22-23 mpg on the highway. This is one of the leaders for vehicles in this class. |

2003 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons Member4144 Trip gauge is incorrect. when it says 22mpg you are really getting 20 mpg, but not bad for a big V8 just annoying that the gauge is off by about 2 mpg. |

2005 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons A member in Washington, United States This is obvious |
|
2007 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons A member in Wisconsin, United States Getting an average of 16-17MPG with V8, but I expected that |
|
2004 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons A member in New York, United States Not that I dislike the 4runners fuel economy, actually for a large sport utility it does pretty good, just done buy a suv if your looking to get good gas mileage. |
|
2007 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons A member in Minnesota, United States Best mileage for a vehicle that can tow 5,000 pounds. 21mpg in the summer for my typical daily driving. |

2004 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons Member2971 It uses quite a bit of gas, I average 16 l/ 100km, or roughly about 15 mpg, and I do fair bit of highway driving. |

2003 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons Member1836 not great with the price of fuel 20 mpg |

2004 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons Member877 I knew going in that it would use a lot, but it still makes me grimace. Still, when we had a foot of new snow and I was driving around stalled and tire-spinning vehicles with absolutely no difficulty (on Michelin all-seasons), you figure that it balances. |

2008 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons Member2171 Higher than average for this size and type of vehicle. |

2006 Toyota 4Runner Pros and Cons Member1293 less than 20 MPG in the city. |
