And have to keep in mind that 4runner build in Japan ..
I just reading stories how 8 speed failing ... just I dont want buy car and if tranny is going to fail in a middle of nowhere...

Btw Highlanders have problems with transmissions 8-speed ..17 and 18 ..year .. not sure about 2019 year ...
Yeah 4runnes more reliable...
I always heard to stay away from new stuff....
Thanks again guys !

Hi everyone !
My wife has a 17 Lexus GS 350 ... I have a Benz 01 ..it old and it's a rusty ...
We being think to get a new car instead of Mercedes...
So I am trying to pick between Highlander and 4runner.
Just wonder.. I heard that 4runner has terrible anchors system for a child safety seats...
Dont forget 5VZ has Iron block which means it will outlast 1gr fe ...
1gr fe dont have a good lifespan as 5VZ ...
5VZ is non interference engine ... so when timing belt will broke it wont destroy the engine ..
1GR has many problems like head gaskets ....
