I like the new one, but I cannot believe that you can option it up to over $50K. Sheesh.

I feel the 5th gen was a step up in many regards and a step back in a few areas as well....can't have it all
Bad choice of words, I just did not like the direction Toyota went in with this 4Runner, I don't know why I lucked out but my 03 V8 LTD had way to many problems, the dealer on several occasions flipped out when they realized I had an extended warranty through Toyota that covered everything, once I saw the actual price of the work done, I understood

By the model years you listed you look like you leased them, all my problems started at 40k,

I am sorry to hear you had issues with your 2003. Mine was perfect and I actually bought the first one in WI back in the fall of 2002 At least the warranty covered all the repairs.

Yes, I did lease my last 3 4runners but bought the 2010. I drove each of them to just over 50K. Never even replaced the brakes on them either, just tires on the 2006

I ponder if this means that the 4 cylinder HighLander is selling decently ...
