Used Toyota 4Runner for Sale in Baltimore, MD

I've spent the last 14 years trapped in company cars: a 2000 and 2003 Dodge Caravan, and a 2007, 2009, and 2012 Ford Explorers. The Caravans were transmission eating monsters. The 2007 Explorer was fairly problematic, the 2009 was surprisingly reliable, and the 2012 was plagued with engine, transmission and brake problems - and it was the worst vehicle I've ever driven in the snow. When my company told me in late 2014 that they were eliminating company vehicles and switching to an allowance, I jumped at the chance to buy a 4Runner. I just hit 12 months and 22,000 miles in my fairly basic SR5 4Runner. The only upgrades it has are the Entune system, running boards, and the 3rd row seat. Voice recognition with Entune is worthless... I say "take me to the nearest Dunkin Donuts, "and it tries to take me to the Holiday Inn in Deluth, MN. The running boards are a necessity with younger children. The 3rd row seat is cramped but works for extra kids in a pinch. The Edmund's editors like to slam this vehicle for it's unsettled ride, a result of old-school body-on-frame construction. Some people like that type of ride. The 2012 Explorer I used to drive couldn't handle any weight in the back, sagged miserably, and as a result I was constantly high-beamed by oncoming drivers at night. The 2015 4Runner is solid, with very little sagging under a heavy load. They complain about the hyperactive, old school, five speed transmission, and suggest that adding an extra gear or two would improve fuel economy. The engine is not the fastest out there, but you don't buy a 4750 lb vehicle and expect it to take off like a race car. The current 4Runner powertrain has been around for over 10 years and has proven that it is almost bulletproof. I have a couple of friends who have 4Runners with 200,000+ miles on them, and one friend at last check had 326,000 miles and has only changed oil, brakes, and tires. The 4Runner is a tank in the snow. Last winter I got caught in a Syracuse lake effect snow storm and barreled right through a foot of standing snow in the road, blowing past Subarus and Dodge pickups buried in ditches. If you want an overgrown station wagon, go buy an Explorer. If you want a tank that can drive through a house during a blizzard in the middle of the zombie apocalypse and not skip a beat, the 4Runner is the vehicle for you. By the way, the resale value on the 4Runner is one of the highest of any vehicle on the road.

I agonized over buying a mid-sized SUV. I looked at all the usual suspects, including the Explorer, Tuareg and Grand Cherokee. In the end, I chose the 4-Runner because of its off-road capability. I also find that it handles very well, and is very smooth, on the freeway. Don't listen to many reviews of this vehicle, as it's great. I opted for the Limited for the interior upgrades. I love the stereo system - great sounding radio and CD. The one compromise, in my opinion, was the 20-inch wheels. They are more highway-ready than off-road capable, given that they are more narrow than their 17-inch counterparts on the SR5 and Trail. So far, it's performed great, even off-road. Second review. Now with over 10,000 miles on the vehicle and considering it's now 'broken in', I had hoped to realize more MPG. I still get 18.9 to 19.00 for all-around driving. Even interstate driving doesn't positively affect the MPG. So be it. I knew this when I purchased it. It handles well, and the engine is powerful and I like the growl. Third review. After owning this vehicle for two years now, it's proved to be a great investment. Only had one repair/maintenance issue, which was the window motor on the passenger-rear window malfunctioned. Toyota fixed it gratis - probably covered under warranty. I'd complained about gas mileage previously, and it's getting better MPG now that it's fully broken in. Done some non-challenging off-road excursions with the 4Runner, and it's been up to the task. On the highway, the ride continues to be solid and smooth. And, as mentioned before, I love the sound system. For people who do not like the Entune system, I find it intuitive and easy to operate. I look forward to many years of future reliable service from this vehicle. Fourth review. With over 22,000 miles now, the 4Runner operates smoothly and efficiently. Haven't hit 20mpg yet, though. Still the number one complaint - the gas mileage. Glad that gasoline is still cheap. I've experienced no problems, and Toyota maintenance is great, with oil changes, tire rotations, etc. Still glad I bought it.

Ok I have read a ton of reviews on the new 2016 4Runner. I had a Jeep wrangler unlimited and was looking for something comparable for the on and off road capabilities. Test drive after test drive I came to the 2016 4Runner and loved it. The off road technology and system the ride the comfort and safety features. There is a ton of storage and all kinds of nooks to store stuff as we as the back. As far as the reviews that say it is the same 4runner in a different look this is because why fix something that is not broken? Some manufactures change things every other year and they have problems after problems. The ride quality is what it is its a truck it is not a luxury car but it is not horrible IMO it rides smooth and very nice but I am coming from a Jeep but I love the ride quality. The GPS is spot on and takes a little getting use to but if it is new to you of course it will take time. Fuel economy I have been getting roughly 20MPG combined city /hwy. The resale value of the vehicle is what had doubly sold as I have seen base models that were 2-3 years older selling for just as much as new ones with 40-50k mikes on them. I have friends that have this truck that is 20 years old has over 200k miles on it and it runs just as good as when they bought it. Reviews are only opinions if you are considering this vehicle Id recommend test driving then try to talk to some people who own them as ask for the good, bad or ugly and do your homework. I personally finally founded a keeper and when its time my wife will be buying one as well.

I have owned several SUV of this size in the past. Yes it is "truck like" for the most part as most off road capable vehicles behave. However, I around town, with daily pick up and drop off with 3 kids and 2 large dogs, this is the best choice for the price. The road handling and suspension is very impressive, firm, yet very tight but comfortable. I was very impressed scooting around the burbs with this truck. Very confident and solid feel to it. Feels a bit heavy and could maybe use another 50-75 hp in my opinion but overall much better than I expected. I use it as my second car, here in New England. The seats are also very comfortable and the best part is that the rear window is powered and slides up and down like a regular window so my dogs love it!! My only real complaint is the entertainment system such that the screen is a bit small and too many small lettering and icons all cramped together. It works well but there is a bit of a learning curve in comparison to most others I have seen. I have had for 2 months and love it! would get this over an Explorer or Pilot or GMC because it drives better and has a more solid reliable build. For low to mid 30k its well worth it.
