Great Little Workhorse

Date of Review:  Nov 30, 1999
Review: My dad has a 1998 Toyota 4Runner LTD, but I get to drive every so often. I think this is one of the nicest 4x4 vehicles I've ever had the pleasure of driving.

This certainly isn't the biggest machine available... in fact, I would place it...

Review on the eve of 100,000 miles

Date of Review:  Mar 26, 2004
The Bottom Line: I recommend this vehicle for its quality above all else. I hope the next generation 4Runners can match its quality, ride, and appearance.
Review: This review is for a 1998 Toyota 4Runner with close to 100,000 miles as of March 2004. My 4Runner is an automatic 6-cyl 4WD.

In the fall of 1998, I leased a 1998 4Runner SR5. I heard about the Toyota reputation for quality, and after...

4Runner-Pushing the Limits!!!

Date of Review:  Jan 22, 2000
Review: The Toyota 4-Runner is an amazing SUV. It has a smooth, comfortable ride and is most importantly...safe! The 4-Runner has been named one of the safest SUV's and one of the least likely to roll. I bought this car because it looks really nice, and it...

Rugged - Dependable - but somewhat unrefined

Date of Review:  Sep 13, 2006
The Bottom Line: This is a safe, reliable, capable SUV that can stand up to bad roads and go off-road as needed. This thing is a tank!
Review: We bought our V6 powered, auto-transmission,'98 4Runner SR5 new from the dealership in December 1997. Since then we have clocked 230,000 miles on the odometer. From day one, we diligently performed all scheduled maintenance and only Toyota certified...

Great all-purpose Vehicle

Date of Review:  Apr 10, 2003
The Bottom Line: This vehicle holds its value for a reason: It is a great all-purpose SUV that looks, handles, and performs well.
Review: I bought this used in 2001 to replace my aging 1995 BMW 325i. Needless to say they handle quite differently. I am very impressed with they Toyota's all around quality. So far the only maintenance I have had to do so far is changing the oil. It...

It can take it....

Date of Review:  Apr 8, 2002
The Bottom Line: If it suits your purposes...you can't go wrong with the 4runner.
Review: I may fall outside the typical demographic purchaser of SUV's...I actually take them off-road. I am an avid outdoorsman, flyfisher and even make an occasional ski trip...in the natural course of getting to my destinations, I've run into all sorts of...

Awesome Reliability

Date of Review:  May 12, 2000
Review: I live in Colorado so I wanted a capable SUV and not a compromise soccer mom vehicle calling itself an SUV. I use my 4Runner to climb mountains on unpaved trails for fun and it's also my daily commuter during rush hour traffic on the freeway. Ground...

Absolutely in love!

Date of Review:  Feb 11, 2005
Review: Great styling. Simple, yet classy and tough looking. Great color choices, and I love the painted bumpers that are an option. Solid truck and panels as there are no creeks or squeaks at 118,000! By far the best style 4Runner yet, although, the 99's...

RIDE ME!!!!!

Date of Review:  Feb 24, 2000
Review: We bought my 4Runner in April of 1998, and I've loved it ever since. The 4Runner accomodates almost every type of person. The car is very versatile, it can be used as a workhorse, a family vehicle, or a vacation car. This cars gives the owner many...

Worth the extra $$?

Date of Review:  Oct 10, 2002
The Bottom Line: The 4Runner is worth a look if you in the SUV market, but a newer SUV with lower mileage and more features can be had for the same amount.
Review: When we were looking for a newer used car we went to the import center. We looked at Subarus and Toyotas. One of the vehicles we test drove was a 1998 SR5 Toyota 4Runner. The 4Runner is a conventional SUV, based on the Tacomoa Pickup. The first...
