    How much are people paying for the NEW 4Runner?

    This seems like a really good deal here. When I was buying my 16, I was deciding between new/used. I went new. I ended up trading it in a year later, with 20k miles on it, for $30,000. I paid $33,000 new. I drove it for a year for only $3k, which was pretty damn amazing to me. The resale/trade...

    2WD versus 4WD... Help Me:

    I live in NC, and bought a 16 4Runner SR5 2WD. Had it for about a year and traded it in. I loved everything about the truck - but I made a big mistake not getting 4WD. I plan to get another 4Runner in the future, possibly a 2019 even, but even in NC I really needed 4WD. Any type of snow was a...

    Creeping forward at stop lights

    I've actually noticed this a bit too. I've almost rear ended people at long lights looking at my text messages on my phone. Lol. I don't think there's anything wrong with the car, it's just the way it is compared to other vehicles I've driven in the past.

    we keep our 4Runners for a long time...

    My sister bought a 2013 Grand Cherokee overland - a lot of awesome technology, really a beautiful Jeep. She's had it for about 4 years now and has about 120K miles. No major problems but I think most new cars won't see many issues until 100K miles, So I'm interested to see if her's starts...

    Cheapest insurance for a 4Runner?

    So many factors go into what your insurance will cost you. Right now I pay $65/month with Geico. I really like them. I had a 2015 Dodge Dart before I traded it for my T4R. State Farm sent me a letter saying it was a "high risk" vehicle and they need to charge me more than North Carolina state...

    "High Mileage" 5th Gen

    Reminds me of a 2002 Audi A4 1.8TQ I had. I bought it for about $6,500 w/ 105K miles on it in 2010. Car was beautiful, inside and out. Literally the night I drove it from the dealership, the check engine light came on, the coil packs went. The passenger side window would not go down the next...

    5th Gen T4R Picture Gallery

    Here is my very stock, 2016 Toyota 4Runner SR5 Premium. Bought it in October. My first ever brand new car. Love it so far. This picture was taken in January in Raleigh, NC after we had about two inches of snow (and of course, everyone in the area panicked, LOL.)

    Real World MPG with 5th Gen?

    Hi I am new here - Just bought my first Toyota - a brand new 2016 SR5 4x2 in October - have about 3K miles on it now - getting 18.7 MPG which isn't too bad since I mostly drive in rush hour commutes. I think they could've improved the MPG's though. It's getting about the same as a 2000 Lexus...
