Great Vehicle - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
By cc757 - November 1 - 4:33 pmI just bought a 2010 4runner Limited. Love the new body style. Fit and finish up to the usual Toyo standards. Headliner and carpet seem a little cheap for a vehicle of this price. Leather seats are impeccable. Nice ride and quiet. Brakes seem a little weird. The first 2 inches or so of pedal travel are a little spongy, then with a little more pressure, they grab. Will take a little getting used to. The limited has a back-up camera, but the display on the rear view mirror, while cool, would be aided nicely if they included the "beeper" which is only available on the SR5. If you order crossbars for the roof rack after-market, BEWARE..the end caps must be removed to install them and the caps are VERY fragile ..$56 apiece to replace if you break them.

Capable and Comfortable - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
By Joanna - October 31 - 8:36 pmWe purchased the 2010 Limited without nav in Blizzard White Pearl the weekend before Thanksgiving and took it on a 2000 mile trip from Seattle to the California Sierras. The vehicle was extremely comfortable to drive. We averaged 20 mpg on the trip. We put down the seats and slept in the back overnight when the temperature outside was 31 degrees F - and were able to plug in our laptop while doing so. Took it light off roading on jeep trails in the Buttermilk Mountains where it handled very well. The low rear differential setting and high ground clearance got us over the rocks. The traction control keeps it very solid in all road conditions. We enjoy our commute where we get 18 mpg.

2010 4-Runner SR5 - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
By rsookdeo - October 12 - 3:16 pmI had a 2005 Limited, but my new 2010 SR5 far surpasses the 05 model. This is a quality built vehicle with a clean interior. I love the rugged look of this vehicle and the luxury ride. Mine came equipped with leather, running boards, spoiler and 3rd row seating. This vehicle sits up higher and has more interior room than the 05 models. The 3rd row seating comes in handy and folds away flat and neat. Looking forward to my first real road trip in the 4Runner.

4runner fan - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
By Turtle - October 7 - 1:56 amI previously had a 2004 4Runner but wrecked it. Loved it! Went 109,000 miles with only normal maintenance. Never changed a light bulb! Have had the 2010 for about a month. It is very similar to the 2004 with a few minor changes. It is larger which I like. Miss a couple things about the old one compared to the new one.

New vs Old - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
By BILL - September 11 - 9:30 pmThe 2010 is my second 4-Runner Ltd. I just gave my 2005 with 180,000 miles on it to to a brother. The 2005 is still solid and runs like new. The best auto Ive ever owned. I have 4,000 miles on the new one.I am pleased with it overall, but the new engine appears to have little more power than the 2005.Quality of mfg materials is inferior to the 2005. They have improved it in many other areas though such as panel layout.

1st of Many 4Runners - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
By Andy in SA - August 21 - 4:30 pmMy wife and I had previously had a Honda Ridgeline and traded it in for your Limited 2wd 4Runner in Blizzard White Perl. I was expecting my wife to tell me not to do the trade in but once she saw the 4 Runner and took it for a test drive she was hooked. So far its been a great SUV. My limited didnt come with the chrome tip but I found one at OReillys for $30.00. Sure beats the $80 plus that Toyota wanted to charge. Not sure why it wasnt included with the Limited anyway.

RUSTING FRAME! - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
By RUSTY TOYOTA - June 18 - 7:54 amBought this vehicle because it rated high, even though it cost more money than competitor models. Reliability is worth it to me. HOWEVER, the frame started having significant rust after just a few years and was causing some expensive repairs. Fire shield rusted off and was removed. Now the massive skid plate bracket rusted off. Toyota service just removed the entire unrepairable skid plate due to the level of rust. There is nothing left to attach to. The mechanics said they were afraid to scrape or chip any more rust because they were afraid that other stuff would fall of and make the vehicle even more unsafe to drive. They indicated that this is absolutely excessive rust on the frame that should not happen. Their official Toyota Repair Estimate to fix the rusting, failing frame and make it safe again is $17,783.71 which is half the value of a brand new vehicle!!!!! Toyota Corporate said, sorry, we have recalled many other rusting frames on our other models because they should not have rusted they way that have, but unfortunately for you, we will not stand behind your 4Runner that you paid $34,000 for. I am told that it is the same frame as some of the other recalled models. The Toyota Corporation tried to comfort me by ensuring me that they logged my case will contact me via First Class mail if they ever do decide to stand behind their product and make good on my $18,000 pile of useless rust.

Not EnoughTesting - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
By Not enough Testing - May 13 - 7:46 pmI have had my 4 Runner for 1 month and I must say that Toyota has not impressed me so far. I have a growling noise under the hood and it is really a pain for a SUV with only 2400 miles on it. I also have to agree with other reviews that the sheet metal seems very light. It feels like a $ 6000.00 car (not $36000.00) when you shut the doors, very cheap feeling. I have really outdone the Gas mileage around town averaging 19 plus miles but the Highway mileage is at best 21-23. The services guys say that the computer is learning my driving habits and it takes a while to really get the good mileage(sounds like BS to me). Also I traded in a 2005 Pathfinder and so far the Service at Toyota STINKS.

Like it but not love it - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
By 1st4RUNNER - April 12 - 2:00 amIve driven older 4s and they felt more solid, this one drives solid, but doors shut tinny, would wait a year to buy, Im guessing somethings will change, pull out back floor should be an option period, waste of space. Brakes go soft quick and transmission struggles to find a gear, engine and transmission dont seem as smooth as past 4s. Lots of bugs, one day rear defrost works next it doesnt, move side mirrors and rear defrost works again. Anti-lock brakes gave out and now no problems. To keep cost the same on new design Toyota definitely cut corners. Like I said "like It not Love It" for the price I should LOVE IT! Trailer Hitch too short for receiver cause of the full size spare.

Wonderful Vehicle - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
By BrianB - February 19 - 11:56 amAfter owning many other vehicles and always wanting a 4Runner, I finally got one. I looked at older models over the years and found them to be lacking. Especially in headroom and interior quality. Well, all fixed. Great interior, controls and quality and now headroom. The engine makes good power, very quiet, hands free phone system works very well and the interior is cozy without being cramped. I couldnt be happier.
