Had a 2007 Tacoma TRD 4x4. Best truck I ever owned! Sacrificed itself saving my son's life, he walked away without a scratch--Tacoma, not so fortunate. Forever grateful for the insane engineering and safety. Watching you from Guam, where America's Day begins. Keep it up!

I have a 1994 SR5 4Runner in white with tan leather seats. Still running and looks great. Love my 4Runner!

Bought a 2023 4R TRD Pro Solar Octane Wednesday. It’s awesome.

Weird way of doing reviews but I must say you have cracked me up several times. Great job man!

Just got my 2023 4Runner SR5 4WD a couple of days ago - and I love it. Live in PA.

I had a '98 4Runner back in the day, and kicked myself ever since I got rid of it. Just got a used '16 SR5 and I'm stoked! I personally love the fact that these haven't changed for years, and are considered somewhat "low tech" compared to other vehicles on the market. These things are tanks, and I expect to drive this for many, many years! Why redesign? It's perfect. I don't see Jeep Wrangler coming out with a redesign, why would they.

Yes I bought a 2021 4 Runner TRD off road and it is the most complete car you can get....most reliable power train, most dependable engine and transmission. It's got a full sized spare tire too. This is the most road worthy car on the market today. Get one before Toyota changes to a 4 cylinder turbo next year.

Looks a lot like the last one. And the last one before that. And the one before that one. And the one before that. And the one before that. And that . And that one. And the one even before that one.

Just had one as a rental, now I want one, that amazing sturdy marshmallow ride. Drives the same if you’re alone or if you have 4 other people with ya. Fairport ny….

I am so happy they did not change the tried and true power train. I still have a chance to get it.

GOD DAME that 4.0 V6 engine have been in production since 2002 and its still still in production.

That engine was in the 4th gen 4runner, 5th gen 4runner, FJ Cruiser, and the 2nd gen Tacoma.

20 years now...

It's a good engine, but 20 years in production GOD DAME...

Just purchased one i just wish it had a turn signal indicator on side mirror.

[kirbymccasland]

I'm a 2015 SR5 Premium... that looks just like this one minus a few interior updates.. . Just praying to be able to get a new Generation at some point without having to be on a mile long waitlist LOL

Jeff, I'm in Richmond, TX, and enjoy your videos and appreciate your dry humour. The engine the GR V-6 is the best engine Toyota has ever made, period. Any mechanic worth his weight in gold, will attest to this IMO. The Toyota GR engine family is a gasoline, open-deck, piston V6 engine series. The GR series has a 60° die-cast aluminium block and aluminium DOHC cylinder heads. This engine series also features 4 valves per cylinder, forged steel connecting rods and crankshaft, one-piece cast camshafts, and a cast aluminium lower intake manifold. And, this is the last year for that engine. It's naturally aspirated with no turbo and it is not "direct" fuel injected. It has the A750 5-speed bullet proof transmission. Also, one of the best Toyota transmissions (Aisin) ever made. It is old school for folks that love this kind of tough vehicle. You can trip it out based on how much money you want to spend. But you better do your research about the different models.

So folks, if you want one, you better buy the 2023. I envision that they will put a turbocharged-direct fuel injected engine in their 2024 models. It's for CAFE emissions control to meet U.S. government regulations. This 2023 truck is built in Japan; however, I would bet a donut to a dollar, that the new ones (2024) will be built in Alabama, YUCK!
