2017 Limited 4X4 is about 8 months old now and no issue's of any kind to report. I opted for the 4X4 Limited at $45,300. I planned to tow a 16' boat and the four wheel drive helps for pulling out of the boat ramp. I also chose the optional 3rd row seat and I'm glad I did because we've loaded up with family and friends on several occasions when no one else's vehicle could fit us all. I'm averaging 20.1 mpg combined city and hwy miles everyday to and from work. One thing I noticed that affects my mpg is when I use the AC in the summertime I go down to about 18.5 mpg. I also selected the remote start on the key fob but it's been pretty useless since it shuts off once you touch the door handle so what I prefer to do for example on hot days is I had the dealer program the key fob to roll down all the windows and sunroof when I press and hold unlock and it helps cool the interior quickly on those hot summer days. The 6.1 screen size is average to good and the Entune Infotainment system is also average to good. The sound system on the Limited is very good and plenty loud. The ride and handling are exceptional and there's no rattling sounds to be heard anywhere. The seats are comfortable on long drives except for the 3rd row seat which I would describe as cramped and more suitable for kids or shorter people. The engine acceleration especially when towing or going uphill is not as responsive as you might want but again thats not the 4Runner's main selling point. I really like that I can take my 4Runner to the boat ramp or out on the town and it performs well and looks really good at either place! This is a great all-around vehicle that so far has performed wonderfully well and I expect to own for many years. **UPDATE** After a few years now I would say my original review was on-point and there's nothing I would really change except that infotainment screen sizes on other models have increased quite a bit since my original purchase yet Toyota continues to offer standard smaller screen sizes even on their most expensive vehicles. I think they really need to change that. This is an important feature especially when using Navigation. Also, this version of their 6-cyl engine is a bit dated and gets poor fuel economy and not as much horsepower compared to some of the other newer engines out there now.

60,000 MILE UPDATE (YES, IN A YEAR AND A HALF SO KNOW I DRIVE A LOT!) The vehicle has gotten worse with miles. Here are the major issues: Front Seats - Color is coming off the leather which actually started within 6 months after purchase. OK NOW HERE IS MY REVIEW AFTER 153,000 MILES. THE NAVIGATION / SOUND SYSTEM ELECTRONICS STILL SUCKS. STILL LOCKS UP HAD EOTHER REBOOTS BY ITSELF OR WHEN EVERYTHING STOPS, I HAVE TO REBOOT IT MANYALLY. ALTHOUGH IT IS ALL OVER THE INTERNET, TOYOTA HAS TEFISED TO ADMIT THERE IS AN PROBLED AND ISSUE A RECALL. UN ADDITION THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES ARE WORSE THAT NOT HAVING A ABS BECAUSE THE BRAKES LOCK UP, AGSIN ANOTHER COMMON PROBLEM I HAVE FOUND IS COMMON AND HAS EVEN CAUSED ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT! TOYOTA STILL REFUSES TO ADMIT THERE IS A PROBLEM AND ISSUE A RECALL. THEY CONTINUE TO PUT PROFIT OVER SAFETY! My vehicle now has over 153,000 miles on it and if not for the NAV/Entertainment system and anti-lock brake system locking up, it would be a near perfect vehicle!! I have never needed to have anything done to this vehicle and other than the aforementioned, I have not had to do anything but regular service and pit gas in it. Oh, and get a new set of tires st 95,000 miles! I STILL WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER TOYOTA PRODUCT BECAUSE THEY LEFT ME IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION WITH THE BRAKES WHICH CAUSE ME TO GET IN AN ACCIDENT AS I stated previously. My recommendation because of that is to go buy a Suburu or the like and stay away from Toyota. PREVIOUS REVIEW WHEN NEW: The vehicle is comfortable in the front seats and the ride is very quiet and smooth until you hit some bumps then watch out but after all , it IS a truck after all. About 6,000 miles in, it developed a "hum" and vibration that you hear and feel in the pedal and steering wheel when you have your foot on the accelerator that stops when you let off but they told me that all of the 4Runners do the same thing. The "tilt" steering wheel is manual, clunky and very, well, why bother! The engine is WAY under powered! It struggles at on-ramps! Why Toyota does not offer an 8 cyl I do not know! The "leather" on the seats is of VERY poor quality and absorbs any color from like jeans, belts, etc. The technology is ok but the voice activation leaves a lot to be desired! More frustrating than helpful! The exterior paint is about the thinnest on the market! Had I know about the paint, I never would have purchased the crappy thing. I got a paint chip in the real tailgate (how I don't know) but it barely has any paint covering the primer! I wish I had done my research before purchasing it. Don't try to ride with the front windows open as the design forces all the wind in your face. Open the sunroof and you get an awful rumble! SYSTEMENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM AND BLUETOOTH HAS MAJOR ISSUES! - It looses bluetooth connectivity for days at a time so nothing will sync up to where the bluetooth icon is even greyed out and it seems Toyota doesn't care for some reason. After this happened, I researched online and found that this same thing has been happening in several models since like 2014! At times ALL the controls on the system and the steering wheel freeze up. I have to stop the vehicle, shut it off for a minute or two then start it back up for it to work again. DO YOUR RESEARCH ONLINE BEFORE YOU EVER BUY A TOYOTA OF ANY KIND BUT SPECIFICALLY THE MODEL YOU ARE LOOKING AT PURCHASING! FUEL ECONOMY - Still sucks at average 18.8 with 10% city and 90% highway driving. ENGINE - The cylinder engine remains under powered after a long break-in period.

5 years into ownership of my 2015 4Runner Limited, I can say I have really enjoyed this truck. I love the power and cargo capacity. It also still looks great and performs great. It certainly doesn’t have some of the features other SUVs offer (i.e. technology package including lane change warnings), but extremely reliable and a great looking truck. I just got another positive comment on Sunday about what a great truck I own. I do mostly highway miles and get 19 mpg.
