  • Excellent SUV - 2004 Toyota 4Runner
    By -

    After debating between the Acura MDX and the Toyota 4Runner, we chose the 4Runner (mostly becuase of cost). Our previous SUV was a 1997 Ford Explorer. So, all of my comparisons are between the 4Runner and the Explorer. The 4Runner is much quieter and has a smoother ride. For a truck based SUV, Toyota did a good job. The 4Runner has much less body roll than the Explorer especially over speed bumps in parking lots. Acceleration is much better than the Explorer although Toyota should improve the 4Runner to have a 5 speed automatic next time. Finally, the Explorer does have more room in back, but hey, cant get everything.

    I am very satisfied with my purchase. The ride is great. Handling is great with plenty of power. Very well thought out. My second 4R. This is a great car. Xreas, downhill assist, moon roof, hood scoop, 6 window sprays, low wiper fluid, reminder to change oil, Tran. fluid, low oil, tire pressure, special air bag, seat belt pre tensions, oil filter on top of motor, great visibility, anti skid, no difficulty steering in tight spots

    So far so good. Nothing but compliments from me. This car kills the competition. To think we were looking at trailblazers! SO GLAD we wondered across the street to the toyota dealership.

    This is my 3rd Toyota vehicle. I love it. The rear window is great, drivers seat cozy, spacious back area that folds down... great looking too. The only SUV built on a truck chassis. Awesome ! You"ll love it esp at a used price.

  • Fantastico! - 2004 Toyota 4Runner

    My first SUV. Wanted a 04 Highlander but even with 3.3 L engine this car seemed lethargic. I took Dorado Gold base with 17in. wheels for a test-drive and was shocked by its quite monolithic drive. Glad I could find one with no extras, plain base and did not have to pay a penny for extra stuff that I never use. Paid $300 over invoice. Had for 1 mo. Very satisfied.

    Sorry, couldnt resist the title but this thing is built like one. Quiet, comfortable, lots of power in the V6 with good gas mileage, I get around 22 mostly in-town driving. Its a sweet ride!

  • Awesome truck! - 2004 Toyota 4Runner

    This is the best vehicle I have ever owned or driven! I bought my 04 4 runner in April of 2006 as a certified pre-owned vehicle, it had just over 20K miles on it, it now has just over 90K and the only thing weve had to do besides routine maintenance is have a front wheel bearing changed out, which was a warranty issue! Toyota has made a believer out of me!
