  Long term report 2004 4Runner SE V8 - 2004 Toyota 4Runner
  By RaySmith - February 5 - 1:30 am

  I traded a 2000 Expedition in on the 4 Runner. I have been very satisfied with the size and performance of the 4Runner. The V8 and 5 speed transmission seem to always have the right combination no matter in what situation I find myself.

  Solid - 2004 Toyota 4Runner
  By JP - January 31 - 4:36 am

  Very reliable, good-looking, solid car. V6 is quick (havent driven the 8), and it is a fairly comfortable car, even on long drives. After looking at a new 05 Explorer, chose the used 4Runner (w/13k), and have never looked back. This car runs the same as the day I first drove it. Mechanically and interior-wise everything is solid. Even the way the doors close - THUMP! - solid. Very smooth and confident drive. If you are looking for an all around solid SUV, then this is the one. But dont take my word for it, drive one yourself.

  A smart purchase! - 2004 Toyota 4Runner
  By grubbs1 - December 13 - 10:00 am

  My date of purchase was October, 2004, not 2003. I purchased a 2004 4Runner Sport with the V8. The only options were the sunroof and the spoiler. I invested a lot of time researching this purchase. I considered the competition, depreciation, quality, looks, price, functionality, amenities, ride, power, fun, etc. This was an easy choice! This a top quality vehicle! It pretty much comes with all the amenities you need. I paid just a little over $29,000. Toyota indeed lives up to its fame.

  Great value for the $$ - 2004 Toyota 4Runner
  By jim - December 9 - 7:43 pm

  I bought my 4Runner new about 3 years ago and just turned 60,000 miles. Have had no trouble at all, had to replace tires and front brakes at 50K and that is it. Car has a great ride, decent power, ok gas mileage around 20 city/highway, very comfortable. I also own an 05 Explorer Limited and I cant compare the two vehicles, the Toyota hands down in every way is better. Toyota also holds its value, my Explorer is a year newer with half the miles and is worth less.

  Best built and looking SUV made - 2004 Toyota 4Runner
  By Big Guy - November 29 - 3:16 am

  We love our 4 runner, it is handsome, well built, reliable and we feel very safe driving it due to its great visibility and so many safty features. In addition, with its powerful V8 we average over 19 MPG. We plan to own our 4Runner for many years and miles to come. We give it a 9.5 rating only because it lacks a 6 way passanger seat.

  My second 4Runner - 2004 Toyota 4Runner
  By Neospazzy - November 25 - 10:00 am

  The 2004 models got rid of the matte- finished fender flares on all the trims. They are replaced by the color coded ones. I was deciding on either the Caddy SRX, Infiniti FX-35, and the Lexus RX330 and realized that none of these cars will bear the truck-like performance I have grow to love from the my old 2001 4Runner SR5. This new V6 engine can really launch the car through the passing lane without effort. The new model also dampens the exterior road noise.

  Toyota 4 Runner SR5 2WD V8 Review - 2004 Toyota 4Runner
  By Martins in West, TX - November 25 - 10:00 am

  The new 4 Runner has a much more comfortable ride than the older models. No bouncing feeling on the road. The vehicle is very stable. The 3rd row seating is great for kids. Not enough foot room for adults. Telescoping Steering wheel would be great for SR5 but not offered unless you scale up to a sport or limited model. Sharp appearance. Plenty of room. The vehicle will tow well and towing hitch is standard. Be careful with towing hitch. Some models come with 7500 LB tow hitch and others come with 5000 LB hitch. The 7500 LB hitch comes with transmission cooler located inside the front grill.
