Thank you for actually taking the 4runner off road and showing it some love. Most reviewers focus on the wrong things with the 4Runner cause yes it is outdated and there are flaws like mpg and having a truck like drive on the road with lots of body roll but I love it. I mean if you drive a truck then it’s really not bad as people say. It’s not a super sports car so as long as you aren’t flying around turns you’ll be good. I wouldn’t trade my 4runner for anything else. 4runnerGang for life
Love my 2016 TRD off-road premium. Probably one of my favorite vehicles I've owned. Only vehicle I've owned long enough to payoff
Agree! I have a 17 4R TRDP, and it's the longest I have a owned a vehicle. I am right at 5yrs, and mine will be paid off soon.
I have an 03.gen4.4x4 v8..200k.NO ISSUES.i,m keeping forever...or till I need another 4runner.;)
I'm impressed with the Toyota four runner I'm in shock. Toyota built a awesome off road SUV
I just bought this exact rig for my wife today. They are incredible on the road and family vehicles too. So refined....
Kudos to father son bonding…the dad needs some lessons on picking a camp site…
I’m on my third 4R, my last one was a 2011 SR5 premium, I had to sell to get a work truck. Once truck was paid for I went back to Toyota dealer and bought a new 2020 ORP with KDSS and love it. Paid cash this time, no vehicle payments.
Nice review, like the enthusiasm and fact you actually pushed the 4Runner Off-Road. I haven't owned a Tacoma, My 2014 4Runner Trail has done everything I have asked of it. Yes, the engine and driveline are old designs, but they are tough and super reliable. Have wheeled with many people with Tacoma's and they have gone over everything I have. Of course on some obstacles the longer wheelbase Tacoma does better and the same is true for the 4Runner in some areas. The Jeep Wrangler is a more dedicated off-roader. Both vehicles with a 3" lift and some decent All Terrain tires are beasts. The Wrangler will go over difficult stuff easier. That said, On road and living with it day to day, I will always go with the 4Runner and look forward to getting a 6th gen...
4Runner all day! Love my 18 off-road premium, they don't need to change much to this truck even with the new 6th generation coming out
This is an excellent review. Wranglers are great off road. I've had both, and the problem with a Wrangler is that you have to live with it daily. The 4Runner is just a joy to own and much easier to live with.
Whenever I think I want a Wrangler, I have to remind myself of this. I kind of have Gladiator fever right now with the huge discounts, but I'm reminding myself that I need to drive it 60 mi a day and I probably would get sick of it quickly. On the other hand, 35s with no lift!
Wow. Actually a reviewer that takes the 4runner offroad!
Great job! Enjoyable video!
I have the same 2022 4Runner TRD Pro in Lime Rush , stock , only a few lighting mods and it’s a beast in its stock form , perfect clearance for the trails I take it through in SoCal. I’m going to try and wear out my stock suspension before actually upgrading to a lift kit and all the other components associated with a lift.
I would go with Toyota compared to jeep all day long. Well build and very reliable. Jeeps has issues.
You're thinking of Ford. Jeeps rarely have issues.
@@Wrangler59 Not acording to JD power , Consumer reports, Carfax and every other source. Jeep remains one of the least reliable American car brands even though technically it's owned by Netherland conglomerate of not so well made vehicles lol.
Stock jeeps aren't bad. It's the aftermarket aftermath
Great video Ben! Lots of good filming angles and a great test for that goat…😝👍
Been waiting for this off-road review 🙌
Need a 10-speed transmission for better fuel economy. That it.
I have the Solar on the way…but, that Lime…is looking good. I will have to see what the orange looks like in person. Nice vid.
how much markup you pay? my solar is also on the way
@@ericliu8946 In their “package” with bogus stuff like nitrogen in tire, lifetime warranty and some other things that they push as benefits…3995. I should have held out and kept looking. But, seems like it was tough to get one in that color. I picked it up yesterday. The color looks good.
No “market adjustment” though. Lol.
Nice video! Thanks for sharing! I appreciate the work you put into this.
4Runner has better weight distribution than a truck that is lighter in the rear ,gives it better traction
Everything good, except they were too cheap to add a CD player!
No one uses CDs anymore
@@thepcuser5469 You must be a child. All of my senior friends use the CDs they've collected over the years.
@@merlinjones6485 makes sense if you have CDs that you use still, i have some but don’t use them anymore
Little Moab is a fun place. Great way to test out a new vehicle before hitting real Moab.
TRD... The Real Deal
“No way… no way!” I have a 4Runner myself… you should have been able to do 90% of these desert obstacles in 2WD. What a ridiculously easy trail.
As much as I love how the rubicon even the bronco looks but you cannot beat the 4Runners reliability.. plus the 4wd lever goes in with ease cause them rubicon lever be aggravating
2016 trd pro, stock....air down a bit and it is so competent off road it's ridiculous. Fantastic vehic!e.
Why doesn't he have a spotter??
Thought about getting one of these VS a Wrangler 3.0 EcoDiesel… then I saw that the 13/19 MPG of the Toyota was considered optimistic and the 22/29 MPG of the Jeep was considered realistic. Needless to say the decision was easy.
Gas is cheap
Cheaper to buy gas than to replace engines.
@@371kenny I don’t keep cars past 100k miles, and it’s free to me before that, so I really couldn’t care less. In the meantime I get way better economy and way better performance at lower RPM.
@@weirdshibainu Gas is 4.50 where I’m at, diesel is 5.05. Assuming both vehicles have 18 gallon tanks I’m getting 162 more miles in town, and 180 more miles on the highway per full fill up… so I promise you in this case the .55 extra per gallon is the “cheap” option.
@@TheDiameter Good for you. Gas is 6 bucks where I live and diesel is 6.25. If you factor the additional cost of the diesel option engine in most cars, it's a long pay back period. Which if you plan on keeping the vehicle for a long time,likely pays off. Like anything else, it's a personal choice.
That’s just an average cruise in the hills on the weekends for me.
Got to see Ben 5 times today
🤭 I SWEAR BRO YOU'RE MAKING ME WANT TO GET A 4RUNNER LOL
4 runner is a beast
..wait til you try the Lexus GX460 😃
Great color.
Not a fan of this shade of green, but it looks great on this.
@@weirdshibainu Exactly. Funny how some colors only look good on certain vehicles.
Terrible spot to set up camp lol
😆
No joke
4Runner king of overland
Wrangler king of rock crawler
wrangler the king of large repair bills
It’s like people who stand in the middle of the hallway.
We have to TRD pro 4Runner and TRD Tacoma 4x4 and from my experience the Tacoma is geared better in 4Low than 4Runner and doesn’t struggle up steep hills with ruts in them like 4Runner does both are great though but I would definitely take the Tacoma TRD off road over the 4Runner …
Nope, 4runner all day.. Superior build over the Tacoma 100%
“ 4 runner superior build over Tacoma 100% “ ha ?
Let’s see here gen3 Tacoma TRD off road uses components from the Hilux like the hubs, trans, rear axle, spindles etc. rear diff 4 runner is 8inch ring gear , Tacomas is 8.75 inch , the spindles and hubs in the Tacoma are slightly larger than the 4Runner as well.
3.73 gears for the 4Runner 3.91 for the Tacoma , the 4.0L is a 4 mains bolt the 3.5L in the Tacoma IS A 6 BOLT MAINS!!!! Looks to me Tacomas is wayyyyyyy superior to the 4 runner I have both I know these trucks in and out and Tacoma on 32’s still get over 22-24 mpg 4Runner will be lucky to get 18-19 mpg
@@terrynichol577 I dunno if it's as night and day as you think. I've wheeled with a bunch of tacos and 4Rs and both handle the same obstacles fine. After having driven both they feel like the same vehicle to me. 4R is obviously roomier and more comfortable. Taco is cooler imo, only ever see old guys driving the suv
@@YerBoyTroy older guys? Lol? How old is older guys to you? It's faxed. The 4Runner is a superior build to the Tacoma. All I have to tell you is it's made in Japan, and all the newer tacomas 15 and up are not. I've owned three tacomas myself, I guess everyone has their own opinion.. what really gets me is you say older guys lol? I'm 39, I guess I can afford more than a younger guy lol? And a nicely built 4Runner to me is a lot cooler than the Tacoma. And that's coming from a guy who's owned to both. But like I said each to their own opinions lol. If I ever go back to a truck again it'll be a raptor and a 4Runner on my driveway.
excellent
How does the 4runner compare with the new bronco? Is the price worth it for the wild track bronco or would you go with the 4runner trd pro?
Bronco has early reliability issues..let's see how they last in a few years.Hopefully they will be o.k. bet prolly won,t be.
I consider Wranglers and Broncos more purpose-built vehicles. IMO the 4Runner gives you almost all the off-road capability in a package that is still a good daily driver or family vehicle. I know people daily-drive their Jeeps, but IMO they are miserable to ride in and drive on road. And, FWIW, what a terrible place to camp!
Toyota should leave this alone. Except upgrade the interior massively
The transmission needs 2 more speeds and the engine needs an overhaul. A V6 underperforming all modern V8s on fuel economy is unacceptable.
@@TheDiameter Perhaps. But the fan boys overlook everything
@@weirdshibainu If being stuck in 2010 is good for them, so be it… but technology has progressed so much that it invalidates this SUV for anything besides off-road use.
@@TheDiameter We're on the same page. My complaint with Toyota is that they wait forever to upgrade...but when they do, it's not great. The new Tundra and Sequoia are misses for me. Hence, the reason why they shouldn't completely try to reinvent the 4 runner that is in last place in its' segment.
Is the Front, back, sides and 360 cams a higher resolution/ quality on the 22 4runner Pro vs the 22 Tacoma Pro? Hard to tell but seeing the screen it looks like it is which if so, it is very disappointing. The vids I see of the Tacoma cams look very low res/ quality, but these appear to be better.
They look about the same to me
@@BenHardyCars Thank you. I'm awaiting my 22 Electric Lime Taco pro. Build is next week with an estimated delivery to dealer the beginning half of July. Fingers crossed it does not get pushed back again.
God doesn't like a quitter bro, now get out there and show that thing who's channel this is!!!!
😆
All new?
280 foot pounds of tourque!
First
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👈👍
Jeep can't even shine 4 runners lug nuts.
Rubicon for ever
Until it dies
🔥🔥🔥💪⬛👍🔥🔥🔥
I know people will call me crazy, but having driven all three the Toy is a comfortable blend of Raptor and Wrangler. Not as good as the Wrangler on the rocks and not as good as the Raptor in the dunes. Since it is a good mix of both I do think its the best all around off-roader between the three.
Ben that looks like a great vehicle for up in your neck of the woods…👍🏔🏔🏔
