Had this 4runner for 7 years now and i gotta tell you its been a good daily. it looks badass and everything but ive had a number of electrical issues with it leaving me stranded a couple times due to the faulty starting system. but i still have the 3.0 v6 which is notorious for blowing head gaskets but mine is still fine with 254k. its a gas guzzler, it honestly is. it gets like 18 mpg max when you are trying super hard to go easy on the pedal. its kinda slow, it does 80 just fine but once you get up on a hill youre going to be 3rd gear pinned. plus getting up to speed takes about 5 minutes. but also realize toyota didnt make this to be a fast and sporty economy vehicle, they made it to be a rugged 4 wheel drive that is made to climb cliffs, thats all. but these do great up in the mountains even when fully stock. they are much better than your average ford or chevy diesel pickup for offroading because these are so light and they just cruise around between trees for how small and skinny they are.

My 1990 toyota 4Runner is the most fun midsize suv I've ever driven. It gets great gas mileage and still has the off road capabilities (even in stock form) that you just don't find anywhere else. It has plenty of room for whatever you need to carry around and enough tow capacity that you should be fine as long as you're reasonable. My favorite thing about the truck (especialy being an off roader) is its reliability. I had one problem and that was a gasket in the radiator cap cracked and I just bought a new cap for $9. Simply it's tons of fun and a very reliable, cool, and capable truck.
I love my 1990 toyota

Want some serious reliability and avoidance of shop visits, then this is THE vehicle for your all around needs! Haul a bunch of pine needles, spread a tarp inside and load up with mulch or chips, drop the back gate and transport a John boat or occasionally let your wife drive it to load up with impatiets, pansies and whatevers. Don't let the ruts in a ravine or 12" of snow stop you in this brute. Going back and forth to work every day? You'll never have an excuse that your "car broke down" if everyone knows you drive a 4Runner!
some good some bad...

Good car for smaller people, would love more leg room. Have had mine for 5 yrs now, bought used. Have had some major repair bills mostly with a/c and fuel injectors. Still a great looking car and built like a tank have been rear ended 3 times with no damage! I feel very safe when I can keep in running....
