2010 Toyota 4Runner redesign

Wow! Ugly!
I just saw the 2011 4Runner on the street. Wow, this thing is ugly! Very disappointing, since I am kind of looking at a new SUV and the 4Runner was on top of my list. Until the Prius and the first Scion, I always though of Toyota as having rather poor design, kind of being the Japanese Oldsmobile. But the Prius and the Scion, as well as the rather over-designed FJ ... Read More

2011 3rd row seats
I'm seriously considering the 2011 SR5 and have been researching pricing, etc., but I've been unable to locate any 4Runners with the third row seat. There's plenty of inventory (25 vehicles or so) around the area (central Maine) but not a single one with third row seats. I haven't heard back from Toyota regarding this... Anyone have any idea why that particular option seems to be unavailable?

Re: 2009 4Runner Trans? Problem [edpol] by legalassist Feb 25, 2011 (6:29 a
What ever happened with message #244 from the legal assistant in some lawfirm? His message was: "edpol: I am sorry, this seems to be the only way to reach you. I have been trying to accumulate, from as many sources as possible, any information about problems with the Toyota 4Runner transmission, and with Toyota. The reason for my request has to do with the present lack of information available to me. ... Read More

Re: 2011 SR5 4Runner [kennerdriver]
Jim Brotherton at Alexandria Toyota. I first received quotes through truecar.com first. There were a couple of dealerships matching truecar.com price. Alexandria Toyota beat truecar by $500. By the way I went for the price but the service was exceptional as well. Was not rushed into anything and was not offered to buy anything extra. Below is the e-mail from him. Make sure you get everything in writing before proceeding to ... Read More

Re: New Jeep Grand Cherokee Betters New Toyota 4Runner (Consumer Reports) [tsu670]
want to add to my previous post that there is a big difference in how reasonable the "wait and see" approach is in buyers' consideration of these two vehicles. namely: the Grand Cherokee (Jeep itself, more broadly) has a well-founded/deserved reputation for poor quality stretching back many, many years. every mention of Jeep on this sub-forum has come with that caveat and commensurate hesitation, and the professional auto reviewers never fail ...

Re: New Jeep Grand Cherokee Betters New Toyota 4Runner (Consumer Reports) [tsu670]
oops, my bad. instead of clicking your link i googled it (for some inexplicable reason) and hit upon that Car Connection article first. glad you found it, though. "The 4Runner doesn't let you forget you're driving a truck." sure sounds like CR penalized the new 4Runner for its "back to its [truck] roots" credo with the 5th generation design. my read on that is that CR placed a premium on a ...

Re: New Jeep Grand Cherokee Betters New Toyota 4Runner (Consumer Reports) [ [stateofmaine]
Just curious, where did you get your quote from? Perhaps we are reading different articles. Oh, here, I think I found it: http://www.thecarconnection.com/marty-blog/1051106_consumer-reports-2011-jeep-gr- and-cherokee-tops-toyota-4runner The link I provided in the previous post has the following statement: "The Grand Cherokee is too new for Consumer Reports to have reliability data, and the 4Runner scored too low in the magazine’s testing to recommend it. The magazine only recommends vehicles that have performed well ... Read More

2011 4Runner
At Toyota.com, I tried to compare the 2010 LTD with the 2011Ltd. It twice reported that there was an error. Probably there is no change for 2011. There is no V8 option yet. Has anyone heard of any new options or changes/improvements of any kind for 2011?

4Runner v. 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee
As a 4Runner loyalist I eagerly awaited the redesigned 2010 4Runner as a replacement for my 2005 V-8 Ltd. I was at my dealer the day the new 4Runner arrived and left with a pit in my stomach. How could Toyota do this to what was my favorite truck? As noted in many of the posts on this forum, it is clear that Toyota cut corners to save cash on the ... Read More

Re: Many existing 4-runner owners are waiting for the v8 [tangman]
According to another website (lefthandlanenews) for 2011 Toyota is dropping the 4 cylinder 4Runner. THE ONLY MOTOR AVAILABLE WILL BE THE V6. I guess those of us with V8s will have to look elsewhere when it comes time to replace our 4Runners.

Re: 2010 Toyota 4runner Engineer Concerns [friedgreen]
I spotted your post yesterday and have been considering the best way to respond. For many, this has become a very emotional issue. In checking the national Office of Defects Investigation complaints website, ODI complaints, it does appear that there a few incidents of sudden unintended acceleration in Toyota 4Runners, but none so far (as of this posting) for the 2010. It should be noted that the postings in the database ... Read More

Re: some thoughts [yassy]
I thought not changing the "break-in" oil was Honda's recommendation. And I thought I heard that Toyota had backed off their anticipated 10,000 mile oil change interval for the 2011 models and have gone back to the 5,000 mile interval. (link). If you have some news about the 2011 4Runner that's different, please shoot us a link. Thanks.

Re: Hopefully Toyota Will Make Adjustments For 2011 [fxoffroad]
I've owned the first 3 Generations of 4Runners dating back to 1986, and in fact am still driving the 3rd Gen, 2002 4Runner, which was the last year in that model. I skipped the 4th Gen as I wasn't too keen on the looks, and liked the 3 Gen too much. All have been superb vehicles, and I drive the wheels off them. My 2nd Gen 4Runner had 380,000 mi. on ...

Re: Opinions on third row in 2010 4Runner [illinoiscentra]
The Third row seat isn't as tight in the new 4Runner as it is in the Rav4. But from experience the 2009 Sienna would be a much better choice with three kids. I am a Toyota Rent a Car Manager @ Turner Toyota Rent a Car in Colorado. I have had all of the Toyota's you mentioned in my fleet. I work with alot of people, who are repeat customers of ...

Re: Hopefully Toyota Will Make Adjustments For 2011 [pjc1]
I bought a 2010 4Runner Limited last week in Mississippi. They could not get running boards for me (Mississippi Toyota dealers order their car and parts inventory from Gulf States Toyota, one of the two remaining Toyota Distributors). I checked locally here in Mobile, AL (Alabama Toyota dealers order their car and parts inventory from Southeast Toyota, the other remaining Toyota distributor). One local dealer had running boards in stock and ... Read More

Re: Hopefully Toyota Will Make Adjustments For 2011 [kennynmd]
I have ordered a new black limited 4runner with everything on it two weeks ago. I have checked several auto body stores in my area to install a brush guard and window/rain guards on the vehicle when it arrives and was told it will be 2-3 months before they have the new designs are in fabrication. It was Aries and Westin. So you will be looking at late Feb. or March ... Read More

Re: Hopefully Toyota Will Make Adjustments For 2011 [tangman]
While I can understand your perspective, I have to disagree with you. I think the new 4Runner is actually going to inspire more people to consider it (like myself and others I talked with). Sales seem to be very strong thus far, as is evident from dealer lots here in Colorado. The 3rd gen 4Runner was great (design/functionality) - the 4th, not so much. My two cents.

Re: Hopefully Toyota Will Make Adjustments For 2011 [tangman]
I am the current owner of an awesome 2010 4Runner V6 LTD 4WD with NAV and have been very happy with it so far after the first 400 miles. This is my 3rd 4Runner and it is by far the best 4Runner I have ever owned in terms of ergonomics, comfort and space, etc... Just for the record, I am in the 2nd tank and my current MPG (after resetting the ... Read More

Re: No V8 in 2010 [sgc58]
hear, hear! unless you're driving an insane number of miles every year, the MPG difference between the V6 and V8 is nominal at best. like you, i have 33k on my 2006 V8 Sport Edition and get 17+ (mostly city miles) and was really disappointed by the lack of oomph from the new V6. the 2010 4Runner is even heavier than its predecessor by ~400lbs, so the paltry 10hp gain is ...

Re: Little Owner Feedback [chuck1919]
the consensus seems to be that Toyota is trying to steer people who really want the V8 towards the new Lexus GX460 (with the 4.6L V8) but it seems like a brain-dead idea. broadly speaking, Lexus owners are even less likely to tow, aren't they? i'm hoping they just made a stupid decision and make the 4.6L V8 an option for the 2011 4Runner.

Re: It All About Profit [qs933]
I will bet that Toyota will offer the V8 in 2011 or 12. I have a V8 05 and cannot see moving back to a V6 5 speed, especially in Colorado. The extra weight on the 2010 combined with the altitude in the mtns would make this a tough sell. Go to the 4Runner thread on TundraSolutions -- some interesting and relevant info.

Re: new gen 4runner [tooch59]
God, I hope it doesn't like a Pilot, or a box, or anything else that's horribly dated looking! Theres everything right with updating style - I don't wear the same style clothes I wore ten years ago either, some of you seem to be stuck in the past, let's look forward! Hope Toyota didn't listen too much to all of this loving the body style of the last couple of versions, ... Read More

Link to future info on 4runner
I found this link proving that the 5th Generation 4runner is coming. I would assume that it's this year rather than 2011 (as speculated by some magazines) because Toyota is running it's dealers completely out of '09 stock. According to Cars.com there are only about a half dozen '09 4runners left in my Portland, OR metro area.

2010
The 4Runner will be redesigned for the 2010 model year (it will come out Fall of 2009). Toyota has been running all of their SUV's 7 years. Rumors have it that the next generation will be assembled in the U.S.. I wouldn't be surprised if it took Toyota longer to get it geared up for production in the U.S., thus pushing it back to 2011. There are other vehicles higher on ... Read More

Re: BUYING ADVICE FOR 2006 4RUNNER SE 4WD V8 [jamesbass1]
Hello jamesbass1, For all I can say, your offered sale price of $31,150.00 (out the door price I'm assuming) is one hell of a good deal, at least from my own personal view anyways. I just purchased one myself back in March 27, 2006 the same exact model you test drove for $36,070 (out the door price, 60 months payment program at 2.99% APR. END OF THE MONTH SALE, only at ...
