I honestly have nothing bad to say about this vehicle. I absolutely LOVE my 4Runner. The fuel economy is great for an SUV (20 MPG in city), it is a very comfortable ride, looks good, handles great, the list goes on. The quality of the vehicle is phenomenal. I have been rear ended in my 4Runner and the car that hit me was totaled while I only had to have the hitch and bumper replaced. Both of my children were in the car and were 100% fine. I have every intention of buying a new one when the mileage on this one gets to be too high. GREAT vehicle!!

I previously owned a 98 4Runner Limited and loved it....this one has carried a lot of the stuff I loved on the old one but improved a lot of the interior...the cup holders are now located in a place that makes sense...not in front of the air conditioner...the interior of the vehicle is wider and much more comfortable...probably the best thing is the ride is 100% smoother than the previous model...there's nothing I would change about it!!!

I owned a 2001 SR5 before this and loved it. Ive had this one for 6 months and I do love it. The V8 was one of the best things they ever did. This thing will move. The 2003 seems wider and a little more roomier. I like the control panel as well. I was looking for something a little more fuel efficient, but Im glad I have the V8, Ill pay the extra in gas.

We bought a 2003 low mileage as an addition to our fleet, for our son. We realized it was so nice that we all started to drive it. Driveability is not much different compared to new cars. Our 2 daughters just got drivers licenses, so it was obvious which vehicle to add to our fleet. Trouble free well , built and nice driving . Thankyou Toyota

My 03 4runner

I bought my 2003 4runner in 2005, its one of the best cars I've every bought. The ride is very comfortable and smooth theirs a lot of room in the front seat same with the back seat, its very roomy. I bought the car with about 50,000 miles on it and now theirs 130,000 miles on it. I'm very happy with the gas millage, I get about 18.6 mpg. The only problems I've had was with the back window, it went down very slowly but has started working fine now, and the driver window makes a cracking noise when i put it down, also the left and right headlights have gone out three times on me since I've had it, but other then that the car runs perfectly! I hope to have this car another 130,000 miles!
