Shocks...Please Ignore Earlier Comment

In an earlier post, a consumer commented on the weakness of the Toyota OEM shocks. The comment is inaccurate. The poster describes a condition which is clearly the result of driving style, not the performance of a 5,000lb truck. If you drive a truck the same as you may drive a BMW, the results will be dramatic and perhaps traumatic. Changing to Bilstein shocks will not help this problem. The shocks are fine. It ain't the car. And no, I do not work with or for Toyota in any way. i have been in the automotive biz my entire life and involved with motorsports for 30+ year, but never with Toyota.

Haul's canoes, stows camping gear for everyone, gets us to offroad locations with style and remains sure-footed and assured, even in the Starbuck's drivethru lineup. Wife, kids, dog, and friends all love this Limited Edition beast. We've put 90k miles on since purchasing used with 30k on it. I put Nitto Terra Grappler tires on it but otherwise it's stock. Pros: electric back window (loved by our dog). durable, comfy interior. Amaazing off-road capability. Safe. Looks great, even a decade after manufacture. 3rd row seats very handy. Low maintenance - just change oil, fluids, brakes, etc. and that's about it at the 120k mark. Cons: not as quiet or spacious as unibody competitors. Stereo just OK (CD changer jams, sound quality is a bit weak and tinny). Obviously a newer version will have more safety and convenience tech. OH, and gas mileage: I'm getting 17mpg avg. If you want to really travel off-road, especially if you have a family and also want to be safe and comfortable in town, there are few options as good, if any.

Will always have a 4Runner. No reason to buy another SUV

This is my second 4Runner, my first being a 2006 SR5 4WD. I have also driven a 2000 SR5. Toyota has done an excellent job with the redesign of this vehicle. It still feels like a 4Runner, but has better power, comfort and refinement all around. I am hard pressed to find a reason for some of the negative reviews I have read, as the vehicle is as good as it gets for a SUV. I am averaging 19.5 mpg, the seats are very comfortable, the engine has plenty of power, the turning radius is small, the suspension soaks up everything, and the vehicle just has an overall feel of quality. The '10 4Runner has remained true to its roots, but is better than ever.
