Overview & Reviews

Toyota's SUV receives minor changes. The most noticeable is the addition of the 2WD Limited to the model lineup. SR5 models receive new interior fabrics.

• Great looks and ground-pounding performance make the 4Runner an ideal choice for people who love the great outdoors as well as those who just want to look like they do.

• Steep price and choppy highway ride temper our enthusiasm for this otherwise outstanding truck.

  This car is the real deal - 1997 Toyota 4Runner
  By danyimbo - October 7 - 10:00 am

  I owned this car before. You will not be dissapointed. By far the best feature is a trunk window that goes all the way down automatically. I now own a 02 Lexus RX300, but nothing will ever beat the feeling and joy I had driving the 97 Runner..

  We bought this car brank new in 1997 and have 75K miles, still drives like brand new. Never had any problems, just routine maintanance. I hate to get a new car but I need a third seat! I wish the new 4runner had a third seat.

  Cupholder Explanation For Everybody!!! - 1997 Toyota 4Runner
  By Donthaveoneyet - August 27 - 2:00 am

  Okay, I do not, and have not ever owned a 4Runner, although I hope to very soon. I took my spring break trip to Japan, and had always seen the reviews on 4Runners complaining about the cupholder placement. The reason they put it there is to keep drinks cold in the hot months by using the AC to cool it. This is VERY standard in Japan, nearly all vehicles have this set up. True, it may make it take longer to cool the cabin, but who likes piss-warm drinks in July?

  Great truck - 1997 Toyota 4Runner

  Just bought this truck a week ago and I love it. Was considering a 2002 Xterra, but the fact that the rear window goes down had me sold. Limited is great, love the factory chromes.

  Great SUV!!! - 1997 Toyota 4Runner
  By wb07 - July 4 - 10:00 am

  I decided to sell my Mustang to get something I could drive 30,000 miles or more per year in snowy/rainy weather. I bought a 4Runner & loved it! It was fun to drive in all seasons; it was very reliable for my long commute; the highway visibility was SO much better than in my Mustang. In the snow, it was wonderful. I think there was one occasion all winter where I slid on an icy bridge, but overall, the push- button 4WD is great. Sadly, my 4Runner was recently totaled in an accident- not my fault. I plan to buy another one as soon as possible & I highly recommend a 4x4 LTD 4Runner to anyone who is looking for a sharp, reliable, fun SUV.
