Matt Smith loves driving the 4Runner, but even he has to wonder how a vehicle like this outsells some more comfortable crossovers. Without a doubt, this body-on-frame SUV has a level of capability that the Toyota Highlander can't match, but it also sports an old interior, terrible fuel economy, and plenty of noise. Watch our full video review to get a sense of who the 4Runner is meant for, and who may want to look elsewhere.

Traditional ac/heat controls are actually a huge selling point for me. I hate the climate control on new vehicles.
The basic, old school feel of this truck was exactly why I bought one
You and me both. I jumped to get what was supposed to be the last model year before they revised it. Sorry no 4 cyl turbo for me. But it's looking like Covid has postponed the new model until '24 now.
Me too 🙂
Buy another one while you still can
There’s more than enough technology in the 4Runner for me…some people prefer simplicity over complexity, and value functional, reliable, and durable, design and materials.
Despite it being “dated”, the 4Runner is STILL one of Toyotas best selling vehicles. I see them multiple times daily wherever I go.
While other automakers are going back to old school retro design trucks & SUVs
Old school Land Cruiser & 4Runner are absolutely the genuine SUVs
Totally agree....
Which automakers you speaking of?
@@ARDG89 chevy for starters with the crossover blazer. Now electric. 🤮 Remember that genuine suv for Offroading. NOT ANYMORE! Just a lifted wagon at the mall.
@@Anomize23 oh rigghttt
Oh wow, physical buttons and no excessive screens… what a treat.
People are too spoiled nowadays, the 4Runner has perfectly acceptable tech in it. They’re definitely engineered and built to last and I’d be happy to pick one up
Virtually every popular vehicle on the road has been watered down to please those who live in Suburbia, those who want to look "rugged" but never do any actual off-roading. I am grateful for Toyota continuing to produce this amazing SUV, one of the last that has legit off-road capability. This vehicle isn't for everyone, but those of us who it was designed for are happy to live with its compromises
Amen
This guy is not the guy to be doing this video-all he does is bash everything about the 4 Runner.Obviously not an off roader-he belongs in a car with a bunch of technowizardry instead of the best true body on frame SUV on the planet.F&$k all those unibody cars they CALL 4WD that really aren’t.The 4 Runner is one of those trucks that come along and change the way you think about adventure and snow performance and general off road utility.
He should be reviewing vegan lattes not a truck.
Purchased our 2013 4Runner New. It is 7 passenger, 4wd, 163k and it still gets 20.2 mpg. Only “repairs” have been the rubber on the rear door handle degrading, 1 tps sensor, and a cruise control switch that broke from a heavy hand. Great vehicle!
I bought a 2011 sr5 premium last year and love it. I never buy brand new vehicles so I’m behind on all the technology that people criticize the 4runner for not having. I have leather seats and a manual 4wd stick. I will upgrade the headlights eventually,but I’m very happy with an 11 yr old vehicle that looks and drives like a newer one.
I’m confused how he considers the interior and driver door buttons to be “outdated”. Perhaps he was hoping to open each window by telepathic commands?
Lolololololololololol that’s funny!
The funny thing is those that say that it’s outdated have never been in an outdated economy car that dont even have Bluetooth let alone sound systems that are the cheapest off brands out there. I enjoy the dramatic criticism though. 🍿
It looks very similar to my 2008 Suburban. Outdated is an UNDERSTATEMENT
@@Anomize23 Bluetooth isn't new and this isn't an economy car.
@@paulelledge8977 No shit captain obvious. But the dramatic criticism of a 90s car didn’t even have any was the point.🥱
I just ordered a 2022 sr5 4x4 with seating for 7. 1. My 11 or 8 yr old can fit in the 3rd row, for now. 2. I plan to still be driving this when they are off in college and driving their own...and I don't need a 3rd row anymore. 3. When I was in junior high and high school, my dad had a '90 Landcruser. It was our family adventure mobile, camping all over New Mexico. This 4 runner will be my family adventure mobile. 4. I decided to pull the trigger and pick up a '22 before they change it into something I don't like for '23.
Have the SR5 premium w 7 seat configuration. Find it useful. No regrets w 4Runner. Enjoy!
I’ve always wanted one . Finally got my 2021 4Runner trail Last year . I absolutely love it . The old school tech. Engine and transmission are exactly what I wanted. Nothing new .
I still look at her and can’t believe she’s mine .
I owned a 2018 SR5 4Runner and was in the market for a new SUV. I looked and test drove just about everything and nothing could compare to the 4Runner. A few had better technology and very comfortable, but felt like a car and weren't that appealing. I decided on a new 2022 4Runner TRD Off-Road Premium and very happy with my decision. The 4Runner looks great, very reliable, great safety features and was the best decision for me and my family.
I’m planning to get one, how are you dealing with high gas prices and such a low mpg? Great vehicle.
@@N1CO_251 I’m averaging 18-19mpg. I fee that’s pretty good for a truck this size. Gas prices shouldn’t be this high and wouldn’t if we didn’t cancel the majority of our domestic oil production. Gas prices will come back down to acceptable levels at some point and we are way off from everyone accepting Electric vehicles as a viable alternative. I think we should be focusing more on hybrid vehicles, which does make sense to me.
I sold my 2018 Audi Q5 teknik and ordered a 22 4Runner. Reliability!!! And the perfect zombie apocalypse vehicle!
Finally somebody said it!! It truly is THE apocalypse vehicle
Yup! I got the Trail like this one so I can load the yakima with gas tanks when the crap hits the fan.
Good move!
As long as there are gas stations open during the zombie apocalypse it is the perfect one.
@@vallugo3724gas stations?? Bro watch the walking dead and see what was done to
Get gas. Aint nothin gonna be open but you can alway improvise to get gas ANYWHERE from those cars off the side of the road. No gas station needed.🤣🤣🤣🤣
That 4.0 1GR engine and 5-speed are proven designs. The 4Runner will outlast any unibody CUV or "SUV" 3-4x over. A 3- or 4-banger with cylinder deactivation, auto start/stop, a turbocharger, and a 10-speed or a CVT, can get 30 mpg, but the repair costs and depreciation will eat up a lot of the fuel savings in the long run. There's a reason these hold their value.
This guy clearly has never heard the phrase "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". It hasn't changed in a decade because it's literally perfect.
I guess I'm just weird as a 27 year old who is driving a 1999 chevy blazer. I really don't care about the infotainment system, I actually think it is distracting and difficult to utilize. I don't care if the controls seem clunky, or if the the AC display doesn't give me exact temperature readings. I would honestly prefer if they offered things like manual windows these days. Cut the fat and give me performance.
Love this review so honest!! Helps normal people understand what it is and more importantly what it is not, helps understand if it is really for you!
Thanks for the review! Just got my Limited today! Cheers!
Call it old and outdated but there’s a reason that it is selling better than ever in 4Runner’s long history. I’m pretty sure I read that last year 2021 was the best selling year for the 4Runner since the very beginning, not just the 5th gen but any gen
We got our '22 4Runner the day after Thanksgiving...we love it
There is nothing wrong with the interior of the 4runner. Technology wise, it's great and fantabulous.
He probably cares about technology more than the 4 Runner tho :(
Forget the girly frills...... You buy a 4 runner for the ruggedness, the reliability, and the resale.
I own two of them, .......thing is, you've got to OWN one to appreciate it........
Drove a 2020 4Runner Off Road limited edition and loved every bit of it! Got into an accident where we were flipped over on our side, we only came out with some bangs and bruises. That truck saved my girls and I and since then it’s been hard not to want another one!
I came down to the same two cars as well: 4Runner, or Bronco. As soon as the Bronco started busting valves an blowing engines, I put a deposit, and started the LOOOOOONG wait for a TRD Pro! My trail buddy has a Bronco (it IS amazing), and I have ZERO regrets.
My 2022 4Runner Trd Off Road Premium came with the Kdss sway bar suspension and body roll at hwy speeds is not an issue actually it's rock solid the front sway bar is exceptionally thick and heavy and yet it still deliver's the extra wheel articulation when needed off road. Think about you want out of your 4Runner and order options accordingly to you suit your needs and you can't go wrong.
@Chris R agreed KDSS is best of both worlds. Unless your a hardcore off roader no need to pay the premium for a Pro model that has less road manners. My '22 is Midnight Black. Added the bronze TRD wheels and I'm happy. Sometimes wonder about the Midnight Black though. Beautiful color with the blue metallic flakes but high maintenance. Shows every little scratch hell I can wash it and you can see the dust on it within the hour.
I ordered a TRD Off-Road Premium with KDSS as well. Can’t wait till I get it but it will be a while. How long did you hafta wait?
@@skoolynugenator1802 I consider myself very lucky. Expressed an interest to my dealer back at the start of Sept 2021. Two weeks later got a call do you want and picked it up Sept. 22/ 2021. My brother in-law works for Toyota so got employee pricing well below MRSP. They bit the bullet and still sold me the first one they got for $800 over cost. Good for them. I have nothing but praise for their ethics and will happily recommend them and do future business. Am loving the 4Runner so far. Just put the bronze TRD wheels on my Midnight Black TRD ORP and she looks mighty fine to me.
Finally got one a 2022 Limited Army green...I like old school. It definitely isn't as smooth as all these new hyped up trucks are but I think that's why I like it. And I hear resell is awesome they don't loose value. Love how high I sit too, I can see everything.
I have a 2021 limited with a third row which is how i like it. I use it pretty often for short adults and kids.
I'm so sick to death of ppl bitching about how "it's ancient, omg look at this interior, it's not powerful enough, blah blah blah". None of those are even remotely true. It's a truck. And it's meant to last. You want a heated steering wheel? Go buy a POS Range Rover and good luck with the repair bills while you're at it. What emasculated men are seriously bothered by such menial things? The 4runner is hands down one of the best SUVs ever made. Don't care what anyone says.
This 5th edition 4R will go down in history. It's basicly a 60 series land cruiser
Yea… this guy is so delusional. He don’t know anything about the 4 Runner history, and he probably doesn’t like the 4 Runner at all. It’s built for its legendary off road capabilities, and durability. Not for being luxurious. He only cares about horsepower and technology more than the 4 Runner. He probably has a Range Rover or a BMW.
When the steering wheel gets cold......I wear gloves! 😁
@@michaelpalm2210 that’s good life hack :)
@@michaelpalm2210 when the steering wheel gets cold, I don’t give a shit.
You just became my favorite car reviewer! Yay to 4Runner
I recently brought a 2022 trd off road 4runner. It's quiet, the gears switch smoothly , I don't know what he's talking about in regards to delayed gear switching.
The 4 runner will last easily 10 years. That Ford Bronco he's talking about, good luck maybe 6 years.
Still driving 2003 4Runner V8 limited that we bought new. Tires, breaks and timing belt. That it. Solid as a rock!!!!
I found it an awesome review channel and am subscribed now after watching this one.
We purchased a limited for our work vehicle and could not be happier. I come from driving vehicles with MUCH more amenities, and thought I would miss all of the gadgets. Honestly, this thing is perfect. As a former software engineer, I like me some gadgets, but I just hope that if Toyota does anything across their product line, they keep the 4R just as it is. I can get 22-23 highway, 18 combined, and can tow a 3k lb trailer and still get 14-15, I can accept that as.a trade off for it's many strengths. Everything is bulletproof and I can expect to get 200k miles out of it before we pass it on. If they do go 2022 Tundra on the 4R, and add the V6, etc., I will just look for an older 4R to replace. Please, Toyota appease the tech and gadget people with something else to play with, leave the 4Runner alone...it's perfect as it is.
I’ve had a 2018 trd off-road without the 3rd row. And a 2020 sr5 with 3rd row. I never used the 3rd row but it was nice knowing I had it if needed. I’m getting a new one in the next 6 months. People complain about the simplicity of the controls and tech but some people actually like it.
Hey from Canada 🇨🇦! Proud owner of 2021 army green trail edition 4runner! The best forever!)))
I just locked in this exact model today. I knew I wanted it because of this video. This is one of the happiest days of my life and I thank you so so much. Oh, Im also a Sixers fan and we have James Harden. I think you had something to do with that cosmically of course. And finally RUSH is my favorite band and Analog kid is one of my favorite songs. I hate these tablet infotainment systems!!! One of my favorite RUSH lyrics is..."Everybody got mixed feelings, about the function and the form." I'm a function guy!!
Have 205,000 miles on my 2008 4Runner Sport with zero problems! Original engine, transmission, and shocks! I've only done the usual maintenance. Finally changed the transmission fluid (drain & fill twice) at 190,000 miles. Toyota says "lifetime fluid", but I felt guilty and finally changed it anyway. The old fluid didn't look that bad coming out, and the magnet on the drain plug had almost no metal on it. They are so well built! It's a fun vehicle to drive and utterly reliable and capable. Doesn't have much "tech" to it, but then again, I'll take reliability (and low ownership costs) over the latest "gee-wiz" tech gadgets. Nice review.
Next time before reading a monolog written by someone else that's drowned out by tacky background music. Do your research. The 4runner offers KDSS set up that reduce body roll drastically on road and that has sway bars that adjust automatically. It also features XREAS that all but eliminates body roll. You can put a wallet in thr dash and it'll remain in place.
Thanks for the informative review and honest feedback 🙏🏾
Bought my 2022 Off Road Premium in January. I love it! Love it! Love it! No regrets! It truly not trying to do to much. And I LOVE the knobs! I HATE knobless infotainment.
Oh and one other thing the has 0 recalls this year. Yea freakin zero, nada, none. 😎
I have a 2021 SR5 4 runner I bought new “love it” I like simple and very capable
4.0 / 5 speed is a bullet proof platform, I don’t have a heavy foot so my mileage is A lot better than what was stated here in this video 👍
Yeah he doesn't mention that these are built in Japan , at a known quality factory. The paint is much thicker than todays cars, all the bugs have been worked out years ago, there's no cost cutting where you can't see, but nooo .. let's pay thru the nose for tecky SUV's to be repaired constantly .
I prefer a 7-seater. Currently owned a Landcruiser Prado in Australia with third row seats. Those seats are folded down completely and are hidden underneath the floor and therefore doesn’t really occupy any cargo spaces. And on some occasions, the third row seats allow fitting of 2 additional passengers in the vehicle , which can come in handy
I'd agree with this statement but it's not made for luxury it's made to serve a purpose and it does that perfectly. I have one and love it and it's very fun to drive and can take it anywhere the road takes me.
I got one just last week after hurricane Ian totaled my cars. Smooth for an off road beast and such a classic grill!
I actually wish you reviewed the sr5 premium 4x4. Equip it with the same roof rack and you’d have the same capability but with the heated seats, updated sound system, and leather seats. Way nicer, plus power seats for passenger as well. Also you get all the safety tech you can get today. Also if you try to get a bronco or a Kia for 49,000 you’ll be without a car for a number of years
5 seater that for sure .. those extra back seats are useless .. despite the fact of the lack of technology actually its better this way .. this is not a bad thing .. nothing is going to break OR stop working down the road remember this Tech when it does break the repair aren't cheap !!
I just bought a 2024 TRD Off Road Premium. The climate controls are the same three knobs.. Fan Speed, ventilation mode (face, feet, defrost, etc.), and temperature. When I was growing up, our 1970 Chevrolet Impala had the climate controls in a checkbook sized horizontal panel with three sliders. Fan speed, ventilation, and temp. Wow. Toyota is reliable but old school to the core.
The best trim is the off road premium. The kdss really makes a huge difference for helping with body roll.. The big old school knobs is something I really like. When wearing work gloves being able to change the climate control is something you can not do in modern vehicles that most rely on touchscreen. It has a very tactile feel to it. Most vehicles these days are wayy too techy and most customers will not even use most of the tech offerings that most cars try to lure you with. The simplicity of the 4 runner and feeling you get when traveling thousand of miles trough paved and unpaved is something I have never experienced before. It has never failed me in some environments I thought would not be possible.. tried and tru I am keeping my 4 runner off road premium. Just enough comfort creatures for me. It’s my adventure vehicle which demands to unleash its off road capabilities .
I just purchased a 2022 4 runner with 17k miles on it. Looking for recommendations on what to use to or where to take to get undercoating to prevent rust. I live in PA. TY!
Picked up a 2022 limited and loving it
Nerd!
I own a 2006 Wrangler Rubicon. Reviewers have been bashing Wranglers for decades but they sell, they hold their value, and their simplicity means they’ll last forever.
My fiancé just bought a 2020 4Runner SR5 and we both love it. Neither she nor I want a vehicle that’s over complicated and guaranteed to come with a massive repair bill if some tiny feature or nanny-feature breaks.
very good review thank you
If you buy one with kdss you won't have all that body roll.
I rented a non-kdss 4runner for a trip and its suspension was really soft and it would nose dive whenever I touched the brakes. I bought a 2022 ORP with kdss and it handles great, it turns really flat and doesn't nose dive like the non-kdss version. Test a kdss version and you'll see.
Got a 2022 black limited be in next week I love reliable period just turned 50 this vehicle will take me too retirement and beyond ✌️
Great Review. You nailed it. When I was shopping for a new SUV, I made the same comments you did. Why am I going to pay $6K extra for a cooler,roof basket,and sliding deck? I bought a base SR5 for a lot less. I use this for Sport/Utility , camping, towing, carrying a canoe to the river, driving on unpaved roads, driving in snow/sleet/rain. Living in New England these are great in the winter for traction, safety, and the heated front wipers, heated mirrors ,rear defroster are great. Sure heated seats ,heated steering wheel are nice, but a real man does not need creature comforts. Its not about technology in a 4 runner ...it's about style and versatilty. I can pick up groceries and take the kids to soccer practice, but I can also climb mountains. Try that in your soccer mom mobiles they sell by the millions.
A base SR5... is that a 4x2 or 4x4?
@@jsprite123 The SR5 comes in 2wd or 4wd. Mine is 4wd and MSRP was $39,999 in 2020. A good deal imo
I would prefer a 5 seater 4 runner rather than the 7.
5 seats, and this is exactly what I'm looking for. SWEET!!!
I don't understand when reviewers say theres lack of technology. What tech do other cars have that the 4runner doesn't?
All these bullspit infotainment tablet screens for instance that completely turn me off. They all want frigging Elon Musk's musk in their faces me thinks.
Heated Steering wheel, heated/cooled seats, power fold down rear seats, power rear seats, auto climate control, wireless carplay/android auto, heads up display, more than a tiny number of usb ports, auto headlights, the list goes on and on and on. I love my 4runner and don't care that it's missing these things but it has basically no tech at all.
@@crack_of_dawn 4 runners have most of those features, just not standard. You have tp pay more for the creature comforts of the 4 runner Limited
Love my 2020 Pro. By far my favorite vehicle of all time, and I’ve owned 50+ vehicles!
I always say I would only sell my 2012 FJ Cruiser, if I was planning on replacing it with a 4Runner...
We are about to pull the trigger on a 22 SR5 Premium with 3 row. As a family of 5 and long term Land Cruiser owners, this is the only thing available now in the US. The appeal of it is the fact it’s old school. The fact it’s going to forced induction and/or hybrid next year is the primary reason we are buying this one now and plan to keep it for the long haul.
And apparently everyone else is doing the same because where we are they are all pre sold as they arrive at the dealer.
How much..i have the same trim and specs
Same
Got mine right before the pandemic,just to find out two years later that my car is worth more than I paid for it,the only car that doesn’t devaluate
Another reason I bought mine. Nothing holds value better.
I got a little cheap Nissan for $10k and it’s now worth $12k. I think all cars gained superficial value but it’s definitely crazy lol
Every car has gained value. My 2015 chrysler 300S is worth 7500 bucks more than when i paid for it.
Nice honest review all be it suburbanesque. Most of your criticism is accurate of a Trail which is a base SR5 with cheesy cosmetics that appeal to city folk. Black trim, a roof rack and a cooler dont help a great deal when shes knee deep in the soup. TRD offroad premium with KDSS way better value hands down. My 2022 4runner replaced a 14yr old Nissan Xterra (worst vehicle I've ever owned btw) so in comparison this thing is a space ship. I bought it for reliability and capability. And added bonus, when the 4cyl turbo unitbody comes out, the prices on these 'dinosaurs' will ascend faster than Falcon 9.
I dont think any suv should have the thrid row seat unless it is ordered that way. id rather have the space
Love my 5th gen so much, but my true love is my 3rd gen 1999 limited.
I would prefer 7 seater. I have 2021 4Runner and its a 7 seater and I love it. ! thanks for your review though. I really love your way of reviewing it.
From Laura's husband..
Good video. You need to emphasize long term durability and quality build. Our 22 4Runner Off Road Premium will last 400,000 miles without any major repair. Will the Bronco? No. Will the Jeep, Kia..? Naaaaaa. On our 3rd 4Runner and love them.
Exactly those others are all POS in my opinion. what separate this vehicle is the dedication of the Japanese work ethic. No Friday hangovers on the assembly line.
Love my 2020 Pro. I did some mods and will keep it 4ever.
Same. I bought the 2020 Army Green TRD Pro out of state-local dealers were asking for over $20k over MSRP. $10k in mods
Didn't mention its legendary reliablilty and resale value. Also in Canada the trail edition is cheaper then the sr5 for some reason
The SR5 in canada comes with the stuff (Softex seats, sunroof, heated seats, automatic climate control) the premium upgrades has. The Trail does not...
one the only one left with a solid rear axle with the bronco /wrangler
I love the Toyota 4Runner. I’m in the market for a new car but can’t consider this because of the lack of tech. I love that it’s a bulletproof, reliable, and true SUV. But the lack of basic technology is crazy for a 2022 model vehicle. Obviously, a lot of people can live without the technology because they still sell like crazy.
I really dont feel that the 4 runner is lacking in anything?. It has android auto/bluetooth/satellite radio, lane detection, toyota safety sense pedestrian detection, radar cruise control,LED headlights, auto high beams,
What more do you want?
Creature comforts like heated seats are available for more money
Dual climate zones more money. Leather seats,sunroof, again more money,
Just buy a Limited 4 runner and you get that stuff
Are you talking about Lane assist, blind spot monitoring auto brake and etc? Power seats? The nanny controls that people cant seem to drive without nor cant be bothered to do anything?🤣 obviously people can’t drive now today.
I just ordered a 2022 Limited outdated dinosaur before they " modernize " the new one 🙂 . Toyota said it will be December before I can expect to take delivery.
I really love the 17inch wheels!
4runner v bronco in 10yrs.. one will be in the junk yard and one will be on trails
Love old school vehicles and this truck is the best one
2018 4Runner off road owner.
What’s up 4Runner fam! 👋
Fun fact you can get a knock off of the same skid plate from amazon for half the price. My Jeep JT has all it's hinges starting to corrode and it will be traded in shortly for some sort of 4runner. I love it but the prospect of having all four doors and the hood repainted every 2-3 years due to improper preparation of aluminum....sad
get a 4runner equiped with KDSS for no body roll
7 seat, and I love the interior. You can keep that cold leather that cracks and falls apart over the years.
The kind of people that buy these have plenty of money for gas. That’s because their previous 4Runner lasted 25 years With basic maintenance so they haven’t had a car payment in decades 😂
Who else thought the dash was nice before he started giving his own opinion? Haha great video tho.
I did. This 4 runner is my 1st car with a back up camera. Thats high tech for me!
Love my 2017 limited
I have a '21 Pro, and I'd change three things.1) 8 speed automatic 2) Selectable throttle maps (highway, eco, off-road, etc.) and 3) Aluminum body panels to save weight. Leave everything else as-is.
I just installed a Pedal Commander on my 2022 TRD Off Road Premium and it made all the difference in the world...totally different vehicle now. Took me all of 7 minutes to install.
No aluminum body for me. Body panels are not repairable, throw away and replace them only.
Can’t wait for some self driving snow skis and that iPad.
Seriously - dude get the KIA.
I love my 2023 Toyota 4Runner SRS it has all the upgrades I need heated seats and steering leather seats and sunroof best vehicle I have purchased.
Perhaps their target consumer doesn’t mind all your interior complaints, I love the 4runner don’t see any issue. We don’t care about lazy accessories, we want a tough reliable SUV-
Agree! There is always the Limited 4 runner if you need creature comforts
I don’t know why all these trucks I’m watching look so small in the videos. My bff just got a 4 runner and I literally had to jump out of the driver seat. And I’m slightly taller than average. Is these guys all 7 feet tall or something
5 seater for sure. Please, how often do you need that 3rd row?
3rd row is so useless in the 4 Runner. It’s tight back there and it takes away the cargo practicality. Save that for the Sequoia.
I’d love one. But 5 speeds and the overall fuel economy are two daggers too many. 1 more speed some magic to improve economy and I’d pick one up.
4Runner with KDSS address ALL suspension-related criticisms.
I will hold onto my 2011 foreverrrrr.
Why do reviewers never talk about resale value for the 4 runner .
Shy get a TRD Pro, or an Off-Road?? I have heard that if you plan to not modify anything at all (which is my situation, I don’t upgrade vehicles) then get the TRD Pro, but if you do upgrades get the Off Road…is that accurate?
Generally, yes. TRD Pro will retain resale value better, and usually people who get Pros don’t do much, if any after market upgrades. Off Road/Off Road premium gives you all the functional capabilities (4WD, ATRAC, Crawl Control, etc) but without the expensive flashy stuff on the Pro (TRD Skid Plate, roof basket, Fox suspension).
I personally love the Offroad Premium because I threw on tons of aftermarket things.
Did he say "Naturally Aspirated"? Isn't that a carburetor?
I can’t get past the interior. There’s no excuse for the interior to be living in 2008, if I wanted a bare bones work truck, I’d buy one.
Youll get past it when you drive an economy base model rental with no Bluetooth and no camera. You have no clue what bare bones is. Also you havnt seen what a 2008 4runner looks like which i can tell. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You are wildly exaggerating, this interior isn’t bad at all. My ‘08 RAV4 interior is even more barebones than this, no touchscreen, simple radio/CD player. No steering wheel buttons, and the cluster is also barebones.
Toyota 4runner 5 seater and cargo space 👍Ltd sr5
I plan to buy a 2022/2023 4runner but I'm not sure which model I should buy. I want to buy a model where I won't waste money on extra upgrades.
I will swap out the tires, wheels, shocks, and have it lifted. These are my upgrades I will make when I get it. Should I get the basic base model? What would be best for me? Thanks!
