with everyone above!
I'm now on my 5th 4runner, not due to failure, but simply because I like to update the styling every few years. I've owned 2 3rd gens (a 97 limited, and a 2001 SR5 Sport), 2 4th Gens (2005, SR5 - was totalled by a driver who felt a stop sign was optional) and a 2006 SR5. I'm now on my 2010 Limited, and every 4runner I've ever owned has always been extremely reliable. I would jump in it and drive accross the country without a second thought. I've been a Toyota buyer for 14 years now and I will continue to buy Toyota for the quality and standards all thier vehicles display. As others have mentioned, 4Runner is built in Japan, at the Tahara plant, one of the most recognized, award winning, and distinquished plant's in the world. This plant also produces Lexus vehicles, so you know thier standards are extremely high. Once you buy one, you will not go back to anything else.
You will NOT be disappointed in the reliability of this vehicle.
Your hardest decision shouldn't be if you should buy a 4runner, rather, which trim level you should buy. (SR5 / Trail / Limited)
