Yes or No.

Do not participate in this poll if you have modded suspension or interior because those just about always make some noise.

I have interior squeaks so I said yes.

Whoops, voted before STOCK fully processed through my one brain cell that's left today. I will say that my only noise is a weird buzz/click sound that happens occasionally when it's windy outside.

Edit: the blower fan squeaks sometimes at low speeds. That's actually really annoying.

Mine has recently developed a very annoying "squeak" like noise that appears to be somewhere on/in the dash, near the boundary of the windshield and dash and in front of the steering wheel. It only happens when cold, and goes away if I run the defroster full blast for a few minutes or it is a warm day. Was going to do some investigating this weekend.
 
No noise, rattles or squeaks. Added 4 Bilstein 5100s and air bags - only mods. It has been on a number of rough roads and some washboard roads. I probably drive slower than most and I almost always air down for trails.

This. But on the passenger side and it's faint. Haven't tried running the defroster. Can't figure out if it's the dash, the A puller molding, something outside or the door.
 
Yes, a noise that comes from somewhere around the windshield area. Almost like the windshield itself is rattling, but I don't think it is. Intermittent, can't figure it out. 22,000 miles.
 
105000 miles and no squeaks or rattles. Well there is that one where the cargo cover flaps up and down on the Yeti when all the windows are down. I don't blame Toyota though I still think I should be able to blame somebody. :D

ETA: Weird double post, instead of it editing my first one...?
 
I voted No because mine didn't have any kind of squeaks when it was stock. But even now, with the lift, springs, new bumper, skids, etc, it still makes very little noise.
 
2010 w/ 72k here. Most rattle/squeak-free vehicle I've evah owned.
Be sure to clean the cabin filter.
"Windshield rattles": make sure your visors are seated in the clip. Drove me batty for several days.

Caveat - The only brand new vehicle I've ever purchased was a 2014 SR5 Tacoma DCSB 4x4. It had more squeaks and rattles than any vehicle I've ever owned so it was traded inside of one year.

The 4Runner is extremely solid and quiet in comparison, *but* in the morning on cold start (garage kept) I have a vibration in the lower passenger foot compartment once put into gear and standing still on the brakes. It goes away very quickly though.

I also have an intermittent rattle behind the hazard light button that tends to go away when addressed with a good slap on the dash.
