Currently on my 3rd 4Runner (2019). I’ve only owned 4Runners. I truly believe that the 1999 used 4Runner I got in college would have lasted longer had I not been rear ended on the freeway. I walked away fine. Got a 2003 4Runner used after that. Lasted a really long time. No issues. Sitting at a light, a ford f150 rear ended me and somehow bounced off my vehicle and into a wall. I was fine, I was even able to drive home. The f150 not so much. I still don’t know how that happened. I ended up selling it and telling the buyer what happened. He bought it because it had 3rd row. Even with the minor cosmetic damage, he took it. I used the money to buy the 2019 4Runner. I always wondered what happened to it. did it die? Did it have other issues? Then one day I saw it on the road…6 years later. I still see it on the road too. Sold it with 150,000 miles and the damage. And it’s still going. I will forever buy 4Runners. I’m just pissed I missed the standard CarPlay…by one year! Btw this is in Hawaii. We love our 4Runners.

The 4Runner is a great truck. Rock solid reliable. The only real long term issue they have is the frame rust if you live in the salt belt. It's been a known issue since forever, and Toyota never did anything to negate it. You can mostly prevent it by applying Fluid Film every few years, but 98% of owners never do. If you're buying a used one, make sure to have someone take a good look at the frame.

@EnriqueThiele yeah... people dont' realize that cars modern counterparts have actually gotten much heavier than their counterparts years ago. A quick google search tells me that the dodge truck he's talking about most likly didn't weigh more than 4000 lbs as that's what's listed as the heaviest dodge truck of that year. the 4runner alone doesn't weigh less than 4400 for the lightest model listed. Closer to 5000 pounds, that's 1000 pounds more, meaning that it's 25% more body weight on the 4 runner. Back then the tires were also much skinnier, and as we know skinnier tires give you better gas milage. Today's 4runners new 4 runner has larger tires than that dodge truck. By weight alone, you'd it takes one galon of fuel to move 174 pounds for one mile on the dodge, versus 263 pounds per galon for one mile on the 4runner. looking at it by that metric, the 4 runner is still technically more efficient than the dodge.

I would hope to get one I need an upgrade bad 😂 this toyota looks amazing thanks for the review on it always appreciated the helpful vids

A Great review by a straight shooting engineer!

Absolutely adore how Toyota has managed to keep the 4Runner simple yet efficient, unlike many cars nowadays with unnecessary complexities! 👏

Right, is it a truck or a computer? Thats why all the tech lovers out there say it needs updating in tech and/or body style. Like Jeep dosent? its had the same ugly mug for ever. No touch screen controlling mechanical operation for me thanks.

Scotty sure loves big SUVs with small turbocharged engines and CVT transmissions. Especially ones with electronic emergency brakes and touch screen climate controls.

I’m with you! Love all those switches and the reasonably sized screen, instead of these gosh awful huge screens all the automakers are putting in their new vehicles. That screen goes down, big dollars to fix and the car is not useable. Shaking my head…

Very interesting video! I saw one of these at a local dealership. It was on the lot one day!! I have question, do you put much credence in the Toyota certified Used Vehicle Program?? Thank You for your time!!

I really miss my 4Runner… seriously can’t wait to buy another 4run beauty 💔

There's one of these in white on a dealer lot in my town Glen Rock, NJ. Going for $45,000 I believe. FYI

Good stuff Scotty.

My 20 year old 4 runner averages 21 mpg on the highway, runs like new, it’s all about maintenance. Scotty your the best. Seasons greetings

Thank you!! it is my favorite channel to see car reviews!

Love the content. Great vehicle. Even better commentary. You da man Scotty. Wish you could work on my highlander. Keep it up. Love the videos. 1st to review this one. Yeah !

Toyota's Old Celica Shocks the Entire Car Industry... Mine has got over 345,000 miles on it and i drive it daily.

Ceramic coating at the dealership reminds me of the Trucoat scene from the movie Fargo with William Macy.

I own 2016 4Runner SR5 Premium made in Japan ❤. It has gotten my family out of rough spots during the winter storms❤ here in the midwest❤

Hey Scotty, since you stated that the 4Runner has a gas gauge and a fuel gauge could you please explain to my simple mind the difference between the two?! I'm cornfused!!

Beautiful truck

This looked like something from the 90s in a way but that's great simplicity. Easy to use easy to navigate I would love to have one.

Scotty, I came here today for some education and a good laugh! You didn’t disappoint 😂😂😂

My neighbor just got the new Prius hybrid. I couldn't believe how sharp it looks, not a geeky hybrid any more. He says it has much more power, too. And better mpg than his old Prius.

Bought a used 4Runner yesterday. The only differed between my 2019 and the new 40th is cosmetics. I almost got a silly crossover for the MPG 😂 If I end up commuting a lot in a few years I’ll get an old Camry and keep the 4Runner forever.

I’ve owned many Toyota cars and trucks. Out of all the cars I’ve owned the best well made was my 2022 4Runner. Thing was built like a tank, I had sale it after getting 16MPG on average. Apart from the MPG I loved it.

@@FUT131 most of them are making better mpg’s with turbo engines which the 4Runner will have next year. I’ll take the old V6 4.0 old engine against the turbo engines. Btw the new 3.4 turbo engine in the new tundra puts out the same mpg’s as the old 4.0 4Runner 🤷🏼

The only thing missing, purely from nostalgia, are the manual locking hubs. They should have put some decorative red locks as a tribute. :)

I love it! Wish I could have one for the beach.

Got an 2016 4Runner (SR5), love the outside and the inside of the thing and glad to see they're still keeping with the general style. Want one of these things for sure, but prob won't get another one till my current one dies, which at this rate may still be a few decades out!

That's why I got mine, to last for 20 years. Love seeing that they won't be changing the body style till 2025 or later. That will be 15 or 16 years of the same body style before doing a refresh. It sounds crazy, but it's a testament to the brand they built.

Like that... "real emergency brake people!" love it

Hey Scotty, should do a video on the new Grand Highlander

Scotty is the reason I bought my 2020 4Runner. After 3 years it still only has 13,000 miles. I'm getting average 15-17 mpg in the hills of western Pennsylvania. I want this to last me for the next 17 years. Looking like my daily driver, the 2011 F150, is going to get traded in for a 2021 Tundra next year. I've fallen in love with the brand. I was a GM / Chevy guy for 25 years. Toyota just impresses me.

I own a basic 2019 4Runner 6 cly that gets 19.9 mpg combo driving. I hope the newer one does as well.

They won't consider a new 4Runner design till after 2024. Love my 2020 SR5 Premium... Heated Softex seats and moon roof...

Love my 3rd gen 4 runner, it’s a 3 litre diesel turbo, she’s nearing 30 years old but still runs like new

I bought one of the 2nd gen 3.5 ecoboost in an f150. It is twin turbo and dual injection. Honestly, I see it as an engineering masterpiece. Who would have ever thought an f150 would come stock with twin turbos. So much power it can be pretty scary. Stock of course

Minus the plaque and badging looks the same as the one that shocked me in 2010.

Pretty cool the old school decals.

Love that it is V6 naturally aspirated and a 5 speed, not 8 or 10 where you have a transmission that is in a state of constantly shifting.

I get why simpler is better, but for $50K, I would expect to have more bells and whistles that come standard on most other cars at that price point.

Sir, you are completely missing the point. One of the reasons people love these vehicles is because it doesn't have all the latest bells & whistles. However, it's still well equipped with the safety and comfort features most people want, and manual controls that are easy to use and don't break down. Like my father used to say...things left off a vehicle don't cause trouble.
