Dude, I have a 2000 4 Runner Limited, 445,000 miles! I'm shooting for 500K. 4Runners are awesome! Update! Sold mine in 2019 with 520k miles

My beloved 4Runner story: Since I was living in the country in 2003, I bought a 1987 manual 4Runner with 120k miles for $3kUSD which NEVER GOT STUCK in any situation. You had to lock the hubs to put it in 4-wheel drive, but the best part was that the rear top of it came off to make it an SUV convertible. My three children were small when I owned it and they LOVED that vehicle. It blew a head gasket in 2007 (the only repair it ever required in the 4 years I owned it) and as the guy I sold it to towed it off, my youngest son was crying because he felt like we were losing a member of our family. And really, we were. I still miss that 4Runner. Love your videos and congratulations on 100k subscribers. Next stop 1 million!

Everyone misses WHY the dials are so big... 4runner is for adventure, that means you will likely be wearing gloves or have your hands full. Big dials makes less dexterity easier!

"Should we help that guy out?" "Nah" LOL!

I work at a small Mechanic shop and my brother owns a 99 4Runner and I recently drove a 2017 4Runner TRD PRO and I remember walking away from it thinking Toyota maybe a boring car company but they make exciting SUV’S (not the current RAV4) now I’m not a big SUV person I love to drive sports cars and that kind of stuff but there is just something nice about driving a Toyota SUV knowing that you can conquer the road and not look like a tool

One word when you drive a 4runner in the snow storm: confidence!

You guys are really good at these reviews! No BS, just true facts about cars with a twist!

YEAH SNOWY REVIEWS ARE AWESOME

Party mode in my 2011 SR5!!

I love the simplicity of this SUV

Bruh how does this channel not have millions of subscribers already? The content is top-notch.

Just wanted to say you guys are great ! Great videos, really really interesting ! Soon youll be a in a million subs for sure ! Keep up the good work !!

I'm a truck guy, but if I had to buy an SUV instead of a truck; I would buy this. This is how SUVs should be made.

I must have watched this video every 4 months for the past decade. This one is pretty fun.

My 4Runner story: It was a snowy December and I was picking up my parents at the airport. I was driving on the high way going around 60mph and I went over a bridge. After I passed over the bridge my 1998 Black 4Runner Limited lost traction and I rolled it 1 time in the ditch. Luckily it landed on the wheels. The highway patrol came and asked if I was okay and if could I drive the car to the nearest exit to keep off the highway until a tow truck comes. I got in it and drove out the ditch and half a mile to the nearest exit. Since then I’ve bought a Toyota FJ Cruiser and became a loyal customer to Toyota SUVs and trucks.

Great vid, guys. Love that you're just two guys who love driving cars and don't get too hung up on all the technical stuff that most of us honestly don't care too much about. We just want a fun car vids!

Great review guys. But, I have to add that I just bought a TRD Off Road and it has all the features of the TRD Pro except the Bilstein shocks and cosmetic touches. The interior is exactly the same, It has the 17" wheels, taller softer suspension, Crawl control, Terrain select, diff lock, A-trac etc. and was only $40k. I'm betting I can upgrade the shocks if necessary for a lot less than $10K. For me, the TRD OF was a much better value and still gave me all the features I wanted.

Hands down, best Car reviews on YT! Keep it up guys. I see your channel getting big real quick! Also love the snowy reviews, adds so much character to the videos.

Best automotive channel there is, keep it up guys!

usually i’d be turned away from a 16 minute review but you guys are so entertaining it felt like a minute. keep em coming, LOVE the snowy reviews!

Hi guys. As good looking as this SUV is, trekking thru snow makes it look even better. Especially in this shade of blue. Nothing like a 4 Runner.

I absolutely appreciate the snowy reviews! I do a lot of winter driving to get to my favorite winter sports. It’s fun to see reviews that have to deal with some real weather! Keep it up fellas. Fantastic content.

Good stuff guys. I have an '18 Tundra TRD Sport and a '16 4Runner Limited. The runner is a beauty in the snow for sure. Absolutely love the handling and off road capabilities. I also towed a camping trailer (about 4500 lbs) this summer from Calgary to Vancouver Island and it handled it no problem. Keep up the awesome reviews - cheers!

I know I've said it before but I can't get enough of your reviews! Just love the way you guys do it, feels so much more natural and down to earth, and it makes it way more interesting to watch! Not to mention how good Yuri is with cameras, those driving and still shots and are something to look forward to. Well, I better get back to the video lol. Keep up the great work guys! 👍❤️

My wife has a 2008 4Runner that is cosmetically beat up. Runs solid. We went to test drive a 2018 and IT'S THE SAME EXACT SUV! Still solid and lots of good stuff but the engine and transmission definitely need some reworking. Also, the interior and the fact that it doesn't have a power liftgate (at $45k) is ridiculous. We're keeping the old one. No need to upgrade.

I have a '16 and I also love it so much ! I'm glad you do snowy reviews because I live up here too and I'm so thankful for it in the winter -- I've used it many-a-time to help cars stuck in snow. Thanks guys !

why aren't you guys 1m subs yet? This is the best channel for in depth review of cars. The rest are all too serious and boring. The fun ones are too brief. Love this.

Amazing, I've been looking into these a lot recently and up pops this video from you guys! It's like it was meant to be! Thanks!

IMO that's The badassest looking SUV right now 💥

Love the snow reviews! Please keep doing them!!! I live in Canada too and man, picking the right car always has winter driving in mind. So thank you!

Great review - I own a 2017 TRD Off-Road and absolutely love it. As expected - not great on gas (550 km/tank) and a little sluggish off the line - but still peppy enough to merge onto the highway safely. Other than that I've absolutely loved the truck so far and also loved the depreciation curve. I started out looking at used 4Runners and was able to justify a new "demo" based on the slow depreciation. Nice review guys

You guys are awesome! I'm so happy to have finally found a car review channel that's Canadian based!! Who are funny and charismatic! Keep up the good work and love the beautiful scenery you guys choose to film in! Would love to see you guys do a review of the new Mazda 6 2.5T when it comes out! Keep it up!

So, to clarify a few things. Canucks are the only ones who can get the TRD Pro with a sunroof. In the US it is unavailable. Also, the TRD OffRoad (or Trail, which is the exact same truck up until 2017) offers everything that the Pro does (locker, crawl control, etc.). Premium trim upgrades cloth seats to heated Softex and adds mirror defrosters. But, you can option the Trail or Off Road with something that the Pro does not have: KDSS. KDSS is a hydraulic system that links the sway bars rigidly during on-road driving, to limit body roll and corner much flatter than standard, smaller sway bars. During off-road driving, the sway bars are uncoupled for better articulation. It's essentially a hydraulic sway bar disconnect. It's not offered on the Pro. It's better to think of the Pro as the exact same thing as a TRD Off-Road Premium, except you get some cool exclusive paint colors and you cannot option KDSS. Oh, and the Pro edition TRD coils and shocks can be bought retail for around $1000. To me it wasn't worth $15K of markup for $1K worth of upgrades. I picked up a Trail Premium with KDSS for $36K. Now I have plenty of money left over for any upgrades I want. 😁

It's refreshing to hear you guys talk, Yuri is humble and poses questions most of us want to ask but usually don't because we're too concerned about manhood, etc. Jakub is the brains behind the car specs. The combination and contrast of both make for one helluva car show. 100k subscribers is sacrilege.

You guys work really well together. Your reviews are entertaining and informative which many fail to do both. Keep up the good work!

My 2013 sr5 lasted for 4 years w/out needing a new engine or any major issues. The Raptor had it`s engine replaced in 10 months, should have stayed with Toyota. Old tech but reliable.

I love it when you guys do snowy reviews. really cool review.

So I watched your "Filming Car Interiors with Edelkrone Slider Plus X & Motion Kit" video before watching this review and it really gave me a far greater appreciation for all of the cool interior shots and the work that goes into getting those. The quality, production values, everything about this channel is top-notch. Discovered y'all about a week ago (AMG E63 S Wagon video, my dream car), and I've been binging your content ever since. Keep up the great work!

I have a 2000 4Runner SR5 manual and I love it. 210k miles. First time driving manual I drove it in 10 inches of snow with no problem it was awesome.

That thing is a classy beast. Thanks for suffering through this wonderful review for us.

You both need your own television show!!! TopGear USA has nothing on you. Another great video.

Great job guys! This was really fun to watch! I have a 2004 4Runner Limited and absolutely love it. I'm a nature photographer and drive it on all my photo trips. V8 (4.7) full time 4WD and it is great in the Wisconsin and Upper MI. winters. Only 140K on it now, still looks brand new and I plan driving it for many more years! Best vehicle I have ever had!

My 2013 Trail edition has “party mode,” the best car button ever. Advantage of the rear folding seat design is that the cargo area is completely flat when seats are folded. Perfect complement to party mode. Great vehicle for camping and exploring.

Oh my god I clicked so fast! Keep up the good work guys!

Man I was just looking at some 4runners online and your video popped up!

It's probably already been said but TRD Off Road is essentially just as capable as the TRD Pro if you change out the tires. Pro is mostly cosmetic changes and shocks. Love this video. You guys really catch the essence of the 4Runner.

Great job guys... funniest, most entertaining car review I have seen.

@thestraightpipes I have been following your channel since it's inception. So happy that we Canadians get first hand info. You got another Patreon here to support you guys. I really want to show you guys a Visor Test when I buy my Fiat 500 Abarth (MANUAL) next month. Hoping for a reply. Cheerios!

holy, I started I started watching them when I started my master and pretty sure they had half of the subscribers that they have now. Pretty sure it was that video when they were driving from Toronto to Ottawa lol. You guys are definitely the most successful Canadian automotive youtubers, 2 other canadian youtubers I know off don't grow as fast as you guys and they started way earlier..

My 2012 SR5 has party mode! All of your guys’ reviews are awesome.

the cement was by far my favorite colour for the 4runner! i hope they bring back some kind of army colour soon because it fits the boxy look so well

this was a *damn* cool review.

stellar review, truck, and video. good work. wish i could afford one of these bad boys- my 2000 is an oldie but a goodie.

Just bought a 2018 4Runner trd pro, black on black on black and can’t wait for it to snow now. I’m absolutely in love with it!!!

I loveeee these new TRD Pros; this and the Tacoma. They look incredible. Toyota is seriously on a roll lately with these and the new Camry XSE V6 😍. Great review as always, guys!

I LOVE snowy reviews! As a fellow Canadian from Montreal I like seeing how cars perform in snow since every single car review in youtube is apparently done in sunny Southern states of freedomland

Trd-Offroad has all the same things as the Pro but without the inch lift, trd pro springs, and the skid plate. It has the Locking Rear Differential, Crawl Control, KDSS (optional) and A-Trac

I love that you guys do snowy reviews. Also thank you for doing a Canadian price in there. Appreciate the little things that you guys do.

I have to be honest, I love your videos guys. Great quality, funny atmosphere and it feels natural. Which is probably very rare among two people in front of the camera. I hope we will be able to see much more from you guys. Awesome job there! :)

I have a 4 Runner story! I got the nod to drive one that a friend got stuck in the snow. They didn’t know how any features worked but once it was in 4L it walked right out. Super reliable SUV’s. Boring story. Lol.

Love the videos guys! Makes me proud to be Canadian. Let's see a review on the Canadian Kia Stinger in the snow. Keep these videos coming!

You guys are Damn fun! And I’ve been wanting to say this, you guys always close the door at the same time! 👍🏻

i realy realy realy love both of you guys i love watching your videos and the cars you review it s not ridiculous that 90 % of population can t buy them . family friendly show , well filmed well edited 10 / 10 . tv quality those videos should be on tv they are that good

Great video I loved it! Only thing I would add is the "TRD-offroad" formally Trail Edition is actually what the trd pro was based off of, no you don't get the grill, wheels or Bilstein shocks or coils, but the crawl control, locking diff etc. is standard. Also the Trail has the option for KDSS a system from the Lexus SUV that the TRD Pro does not, do what I did, buy the Trail and use the money you saved to build your own Pro

“I REALLY WANNA RECIRCULATE MY AIR!!!!” 😂😂

Love the snowy reviews! Great to see Ontario, I lived in Marathon for 3 years! Had a Toyota single cab 4x then. Only had one 4R, a 95. Not nearly as bad ass as the Pro. Keep up the good work!

A few years ago me and my dad did a road trip in a 1994 Toyota Land Cruiser the first car I ever drove and holds a special place in my heart. It's great to see the 4runner carrying the lineage of the landcruiser and being more of a landcruiser than the new landcruiser is

this thing is so cool... why dont we have this in germany..

I love this truck, if I has the money i would buy on in a heart beat

I just got my 2021 Toyota 4Runner TRD off road and I’m in Loveeeeeee 🥰

Another great video as always!

Now this is a video I can get behind. I love that color. Only problem is that they are so fricken common in Montana.

How are you guys getting the sweet moving exterior shots? Drone? You guys are tearing faces off! Better than Doug, Better than Matt, Better than Brian, Tyler, Kyle, Jay and Parker, that dude isn’t even in the same universe. SPs FTW! I’m a weird dude. I like top end GT cars optioned out but with manual transmissions. There aren’t too many of those in the modern world anymore.

Crawl control saved me when I got stuck in the mud last week. Love it.

Born and raised in 4runners, learned to drive in one, and no surprise i own on now, they never die and can tackle any terrain. I own a 2016 trail (now called off-road) has all the off-road stuff a pro has just not the badging and shocks, which is good for us who mod our trucks. Mine has a 3in lift and eats any terrain and absolutely love it

From California, and I'm shopping for a car and stumbled onto you guys. Been watching all your videos; you guys are great! (I'm stuck choosing between the Hyundai Elantra Sport, Focus ST and Honda Accord)

"Should we help him out?" "Nah" LOL

First time on this channel and I loved it! Thank you guys!

Took my dream truck home today. Then watched this video for the first time. Love it. Love my second 4R, owned a 2000Ltd for 14 years. To me this is all a guy could ever want. Can't wait to wake up tomorrow morning and remember what's outside. 😂

Great review guys. So jelly, pro in the states doesn’t have the moonroof. Off-road premium will have to do.

We appreciate it, but I think you guys need to be sponsored by Canada Goose! They need to send you Jackets with the StraightPipes logo on them.

Awesome! Thanks for the review guys. Keep it going!

I love how they don't script these and don't agree on everything because let's be honest not all buyers are going to agree on things. I'm subbing right now, I'm not on the market for a car, but I'll watch any review by you guys no question!! Please keep uploading!

I have its brother, the tacoma trd offroad. I love Toyota. Very trustworthy vehicles.

Curious what camera car u guys were driving while film the 4runner?

Love it, the ultimate Tonka toy. I miss my old 4runner, 5 speed manual, 4wd, locking diffs. Probably wouldn’t want to do the daily commuter crawl in it but as a weekend toy, sign me up.

Nice review guys can't wait to watch more!

We own the the 2015 limited and 2016 TRD pro. Very simply, the beset SUV and Daily drivers We've ever had. With that said. The Limited is far better than my TRD PRO in road behavior. It's far more composed, and it's got self adjusting suspension that will level out the car on turns, hills, and when I tow my trailer. The Limited model has nearly 0 drop in suspension ride height. That goes for also loading the truck with cargo or people. My TRD PRO is another story. It's got much softer suspension giving it a much softer ride and response when compared to the Limited. It also sits about an 1 inch higher..maybe 2. I'm not really sure but the difference isn't that noticeable particularly when the Limited suspension increases it's height based on weight and terrain. The TRD PRO also has a lot more drop when I towed my 4k trailer on it..I dropped by some 4 inches. Same trailer on the limited experienced at the most 1 inch. Also the the Limited is an all time AWD. you can't turn it off the TRD Pro is a 2wd with AWD on command. You don't have crawl control, like the TRD PRO, but the Limited model will non the less crawl, but it will do it on it's terms. you don't dictate the terrian, it does it for you . Gas mileage is awful. However I don't care. I didn't buy it for it's mileage. I knew exactly what I was getting. Just don't let those bullshit number of 16 in the city and 21 highway make you think you'll get those. realistically you're going to see 12 city and 18 highway combined ( assuming your going over 55) I get slightly better mileage on the TRD PRO about 15 city and 23 highway..Both have ample horsepower. And yes, I love the transmission 5 speed. Learn to utilize sequential mode and it'll be driving an 8 cylinder beast. It will hold the gear you set it to as a max will not shift, unlike 99% of vehicles on the market. So in busy bumper to bumper or NYC traffic, Ill set it to second gear and i'm able to engine break to a stop or get off the line quicker and not deal with LAG.

Party mode on my 4Runner!!

Was about to say where's the visor test, but you threw it in at the end. Was on vacation in Florida for a week and saw a ton of 4runners even though they don't need it for the snow so I thought that was funny, non of them were towing anything either. Great video guys, you guys always have awesome, real life reviews!

Excellent review Guys! I love seeing reviews done in Winter. Thanks.

Lol that green golf in the back. When are the r reviews out :P?

Can't wait for the off road video! I hope there's one coming 👍👍

I read an article that states the buttons are usually larger to enable those of us 4runner owners to easily press the buttons with gloves on and such since we're likely to be in climates that require them. Also, my gun fits perfectly near the cup holder slot. I'm sure others do it too!

Great video thats a nice looking trd pro love the color my 4th gen 4runner is the most reliable vehicle I have ever own just 221000 miles still run strong.

Corolla in the ditch at 0:21😂 Welcome to canadian winters

Is it possible that Yuri is a younger, better looking, Captain Slow? :)

I loved the snowy review, I loved the Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro..

Not sure how I found you guys but I’ve instantly subscribed! You guys talk just like my friends and I while driving up to the mountain in my 4Runner.
