Keeps going and going and going

1993 Toyota 4Runner SR5 V6 4dr SUV 4WD
Bought my '93 4Runner with 246,000 miles on it (all Colorado miles). That's right. I took it to 300,000 and got rear ended. It still runs like a top and never fails to start. Had a friend buy a '93 Blazer at the same time I bought my 4Runner . . . I towed him to the shop 3 times and it didn't feel like I was pulling anything. Only drawback is it's a little underpowered in the top end, … don't expect to rocket up the hills, but mountains are no challenge.

1993 Toyota 4Runner SR5 V6 4dr SUV
What can i say, I bought my baby brand new back in 1993. Now have about 225k and this thing purrs like a kitten, starts on a dime every time, great brakes, still have original rear and original front werent replaced till 100k. Developed small hole in the radiator which required replacement and had a recall on the head gasket that toyota paid for; other than that this thing is an ox. I … take very good care of it and it has repaid my love with reliability that simply can't be beat. It doesn't sputter, ping, knock or vibrate and amazes me every time I crank it up. Ohh and besides the drivetrain, the interior hasn't even sustained a single tear in fabric or buttons falling off etc, I hope for 3-4+yrs.

nice, but slow

I am a chevy mechanic and yes I own a
yota. I don't like working on my own
vehicles after 50 hours of work every
week. This truck is very reliable, but
lacks power, BIG TIME!!! This 3.0 is
impossible too work on too. I think my
1987 toy pickup with 200K on it is
faster! My 85 4runner handled better,
it pulls poorly, and gets blown around
on the highway like a rag … doll. I will
probably sell and get a used tahoe or
suburban. At least if they break down
I'm not lost under the hood and They
have an ENGINE.

A great truck

I first bought this truck from my friend and it is the best car I have ever owned. It now has 141,000 miles on it and it's still truckin. I have had to do only one head job on it but that was a dealership recall. I love it how this truck can go anywhere, anytime. It has the perfect amount of cargo room, mostly when you fold down the rear seats. This truck is perfect in an offroad … environment too. I can definitely keep up with all the other guys in there souped up trucks in the sand. If your looking for a fun truck that lasts a life time and maybe even longer this should be your truck.
