    Love most everything about this truck. Big tires, trims, tail fin, jacked up...all makes this truck look awesome.

    This car is perfect for almost anyone! Its fun to drive, yet you can carry whatever you want in the back. It has a great design, is reliable, and the fuel isnt too bad for an SUV! Im so glad I decided to get the 4Runner, this is the best car I have ever had.

    I bought the V8 Limited 4WD and I have not been disappointed, it drives like a dream not at all like the sled like suvs I have had in the past! The interior is plush and comfy and the controls are a bit confusing at first, but you catch on pretty quick I wish the power windows were a little higher up and more illuminated, also it needs rear cup holders that are not in seat beacuse if you have three in the rear no place for cups except the bottle holders in the door. Overall drive and ride is excellent!

    So far it has been worth every penny even though I had for this short time. My buddy has a 2004 and I had the chance to ride in it every time we played golf. It has plenty of room for our golf clubs and pull carts! Also I am in the military and haul alot of gear around and it also has plenty of room for that. The ride is uncomparable to my last vehicle Jeep GC V8,2001. The interior design is simple but very modern looking. The exterior is to fall in love with. The safety features are just too long to list! If you are looking at getting one you will be satisfied and get your moneys worth from it reliability and re-sale value!

    Toyota has really out done themselves when they changed the body style of the 2005 4-Runner. Its more roomy and drives smoother. I like what youve done for me Toyota! :)

    I enjoy the comfort and safety of this vehicle. I have always owned toyota and owned a Highlander limited as well. I love the feel of the ride.

  • My First Runner - 2005 Toyota 4Runner

    Had to get a vehicle that would get me to hocky rinks in the winter in New England. After asking every Runner owner I came in contact with this was a no brainer. Comfort, convenience, room to carry hockey stuff. Our first 7 inch snowfall happened two week before Thanksgiving. It was a breeze to get it in 4wd and go thru the stuff 500 miles to Lake Placid for a tournament. Get One! My wife wants one of her own!

  • Read the Reviews, Everyone Cant B Wrong - 2005 Toyota 4Runner

    I had a hard time making up my mind but then when I drove the 4 Runner I couldnt believe how smooth and powerful it was for a 6cyl. It honestly feels like an 8cyl. I had a 95 Lexus GS 300 and my 4 Runner is much smoother and quieter. The resale value is the best from any SUV. There is no reason to buy anything else. If you drive this truck you will think youre driving a Lexus truck. Before I purchased my 4 Runner I read a lot of reviews and everyone loves their 4 Runner. I couldnt find any negative comments. Well maybe one but Im sure that was someone who regrets not purchasing one.

    I love this car! The ride and handling are great, the exterior and interior are beautiful, and all of the controls are very user-friendly.
