  • So far, so good! - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
    By -

    Traded in our 08 Highlander Limited, needed something over 6001 lbs for business tax advantage, very impressed with new model, drives very similar to the HL, but definitely a truck vs HLs car-like drive. We actually prefer to be up a little higher, but it does lumber around like a truck, no worries for us tho. Just as roomy, third row seems smallish, but ends up almost exactly same size and functionality as the HLs. 2nd row has plenty of room, fit and finish are excellent - thx Toyota! Gas mileage as expected - this is not a Corolla folks, dont get a heavy V6 truck and think you can coax 30 mpg out of it, considering what the 4Runner can do, 19-23 mpg is fantastic! no complaints

  • Better Than Reported - 2010 Toyota 4Runner

    Forget about the sour rating by C.R. This is a great vehicle so far for the month weve owned it. Nice, quiet ride, good handling, peppy V6, good mileage at 19 overall. Smooth shifting trans. Huge cargo area. High quality leather pkg. option adds luxury.

  • Love and disappointments - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
    By -

    I had a 2005 sport it had a lot more power, than the 2010 sr5 and it had better gas mileage than the 2010, I though it would have more power, and a little better gas mileage. I like the 4 runner over all, esp. The power rear window., I don; t like the way I have to adjust the steering wheel, that set up has to be in the Stone age, very cumbersome and inconvenient and probably the cheapest way to do it.

  • Lemon? - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
    By -

    So far I am not impressed by my new 4Runner in the least. I was so excited to get this truck, as I have had a 4Runner in the past (2004). Now I am regretting my decision. I am taking it back to the dealer for the third time in two weeks. Rattle in the overhead compartment is driving me nuts. My brakes are hard to press and have a metal releasing/vibration feeling to them. Very unnerving. Each time I reach 40mph the engine starts to sputter and miss. Trying to merge onto the highway is a mess. The first time I was told this is "normal for a 4Runner". Then told it was the ECO and to turn it off. No dice. Not at all Toyota "quality".

  • I LOVE OUR 4RUNNER LIMITED - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
    By -

    Weve had the truck for one week and have yet to take it off road, but were anxious to do so. It is appealing to the eye, gets good mileage for a vehicle of its size (averaging 20 mpg combined open freeway in the a.m. and stop & go in the evening). Interior and exterior appointments are excellent and well constructed.

  • Decent - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
    By -

    Purchased two weeks ago and so far a fine truck. Moderately powerful V6 (a V8 would be a nice option). Performs better with premium. New generation is a step up from last in size and space. Smooth and reasonably comfortable for a $40K SUV. Good ground clearance and capable with some minor off roading I did. Handles nicely too while suspension is quite compliant. Exterior design OK.

  • After 1 month and 1500 miles - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
    By -

    The ride is comfortable both in city and highway. The interior design is okay but the exterior design is eye catching. I love the height of the truck. I am getting 18 mpg on mixed driving which is good for a vehicle of its size and class. I live in NY metro area and was always scared of driving over huge bumps and potholes. Now with this truck I embrace them with smile. After driving a high end German sedan I would have to say, if you wan a reliable transportation stick with TOYOTA. They have been making 4WD trucks since last 6 decades and I have seen them lasting forever with minimal maintenance.

    Overall Very Good, needs running boards and mudflaps. Also, very attractive vehicle, needs more options.

  • My 2nd 4 Runner - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
    By -

    Traded my 04 for the 2010 in December. I live in the country with lots of blowing drifting snow so I knew it would be another 4 Runner for me. Love the styling and going with the full leather package was a wonderful upgrade for me. I have found nothing lacking in comfort and styling in this model. I was very disappointed that running boards were not standard as they were in previous 4 Runners, had to have my dealer retrofit them as I was having difficulty getting in and it was expensive. Also all weather floor mats should have been available! Preferred the tailgate assist too. Dont think it has as much pick up as my 04 until you hit the passing gear!! Overall satisfied with purchase!

  • New 2010 purchase - 2010 Toyota 4Runner
    By -

    New Purchase in Silver with dark interior. Very solid, secure feeling when driving, smooth shifts, 8way speaker system has a monster bass, not a quick-like-a-bunny feeling when getting on it, but a steady comer. Good viewing, very comfortable cloth seats, excellent handsfree system, ipod plug in, shift handle. 4x2 purchase for the highways.
