It's not often I subscribe to channels, but this guy definitely earned it. You can tell he is very authentic which is the most important thing to me. No fluff or cheese, great camera work and solid overall reviews. I am definitely a fan. As to the Forerunner, I love them. Their biggest selling point is they are extremely reliable, rock solid, tough vehicles that look fantastic. (If you are into tough masculine looking trucks instead of glorified minivans). That said, it's definitely time for some modern upgrades.

This is very nice for a body on frame SUV. Better than my 94 Mazda Navajo. (Loved that vehicle). It will fulfill my light off-roading use and is quite nice on the road. Is it a unibody SUV? No. That engine and five speed transmission is buttery smooth. When I I want good gas mileage, I will hop in to my Mazda Miata. I bought the 4Runner for the long haul. I’m older and could care less about technology. (Yes, I’ve turned into my father) Ryan’s videos sealed the deal for my purchase.

Every 4Runner is a nice truck but people really gravitated towards the premium packages in the show rooms.

After 80K miles, I got Michelin tires and the ride quality improved so much that I thought I was in a Lexus SUV. The tires no longer felt like it was dragging on the road. Road noise practically disappeared and it was a pleasure to drive. I know its a lot to ask, but maybe you can test these cars with different tires and give us a report on the differences.

BUT, even though I love my TRD OR, IF I never intended to hit the trails, I would NOT buy a 4R at this point. I agree 100% that if you can wait to see what they do with the make over, just wait. If not, buy something else completely. Lexus products are excellent, civilized and relatively better in manners on road. Not sure about better MPG, but I imagine so. In short, I would not buy the TRD Sport.

my 4runner is faster than my old stock 2000 honda accord. Putting it in Smode with high revs and shifting is quick enough. Its no performance car but considering its a heavy V6 brick is quick enough. 😅

The only thing I want from the Limited is the Torsen AWD system, that this doesn't have.
@RightYouAreKen012 жыл бұрын
It should be standard across the 4Runner range if we're being honest. Even my 2002 SR5 4Runner had an AWD mode that could be used on dry/wet pavement. It was so much nicer to drive in mixed conditions because of it compared to my 2020 TRDORP.

The TRD Sport has the same 4Runner soul. I like the look but I'd rather get a 2022 Off Road Premium. The 2023 turbo hybrid doesn't interest me. My only problem is paying the dealer markup, or the "market adjusted price", but I will have no choice.
@jpsav0082 жыл бұрын
That’s the issue I ran into recently in looking into 4Runner options. TRD OR had a mark-up of at least $5-7K over the TRD Sport. Ended up making due with the TRD Sport and using the money saved to upgrade accessories (wheels, rack, rock guard). The 4Runner “soul” is what I cared about most!

It will be an AWD based system, and most likely a crossover platform. Hopefully they'll at least replace that terrible gutless engine they're using with a hybrid setup.

Can you do a video on how and when you would use the 4l 4h options
@WW-wf8tu2 жыл бұрын
4L you use when you are going very slow, off camber situations, up steep hills(or down) and need double the torque. 4H you simply use anytime the conditions get slippery at speeds above 25-50 MPH to help keep you going in a straight line. ;)
@wildbill23c2 жыл бұрын
4L for rock crawling, and slow maneuvers that require easier throttle manipulation without all the jerkiness of the throttle as you are bouncing over rough terrain. Honestly 99% of people have no use for anything other than AWD. In this particular 4Runner 4H would only be used in low traction conditions such as mud, snow, sand, etc. Its not for highway use, its not a full time 4WD system.

I really don’t understand why people bash the 4Runner infotainment screen. It’s nothing fancy to be sure but whenever a reviewer says ‘it’s fine, just fine’, they make it sound like you can’t read it. I own one and I’ve been in plenty of cars with better screens and it just doesn’t matter. The back up camera is nice to see better but it isn’t making me run into anyone, and if you can’t see the icons on the screen in apple car play on this screen, then your blind, and no amount of better resolution will help. You need glasses, bad!

Hi @@SonTran-px4vf, just realizing how expensive the 4Runners are now. My SR5 with 3rd row was 36,085 and with all added options it was 38K where those days we were able to bargain and atleast go down to 36K price tag. I bet you would love the XREAS as its really comfy on road. If you don't like 20in wheels you can get stock 17in wheels. I got TRD Offroad 17in wheels for my Limited as my wife has no sympathy driving and loading her garden needs, main reason I got her a 4Runner. So 17in wheels and tires work best for her.
