Toyota forerunner limited edition

My Toyota forerunner is a 2003. I absolutely love this vehicle and it has been very good to me. It’s coming up on 200,000 miles and I hope she lasts another 200 Thousand miles because I will definitely miss her. She has been one of the most dependable Vehicles I have ever owned.

This vehicle is one of the best I’ve owned.

My Toyota 4Runner 4WD has over 200,000 miles on it & continues to run like a champ, thanks to the service that the crew at Jerry’s Auto has provided over the years. I have used it for towing an 18ft pontoon boat across the state, taking it four-wheeling through some beautiful, but rugged, country and loaded it up with construction supplies many times over the years. It’s also a smooth riding, run-around-town family car.

Toyota 4Runner 2003 Sports Edition purchased 2002

This vehicle performs like a car on the road in terms of maneuvering. Best purchase as only service as being maintenance no major work to date! Silver Fox @160,000m an this gives me neck jarring from 0-60m on lift off!!

2003 4runner

It's been a great vehicle, a very reliable car. This car has over 220,000 miles on it and it doest burn oil or leak oil. It has a rust spot on the tailgate I need to get fixed but that's really the only body issue it has.

Reliable

Very durable, drives nice, comfortable, nice design. Very reliable I can't wait to buy the new design . I am starting to have a problem with the AC but this is understandable since it is an old car. Also it does 18 miles per gallon so that is too expensive, but the performance of this car is still excellent.

2003 TOYOTA 4RUNNER SPORTS EDITION

Brought this vehicle Dec 2002 and was the best decision ever. Has never left me on the road or had any engine problem to date!! Have only done general maintenance such as oil change, tyres, battery, spark plugs, etc. The body and paint is in excellent shape and gas mileage is within acceptable limits.

Great vehicle that holds value. Almost 300,000 miles. Got it for my son but got him something else and kept it for myself.

Highly recommend Hughes Automotive on Harrisburg Road for maintenance. Got me in and out and ready for work next day. Only used recommended OEM Parts with reasonable price. Inspected and advised of potential safety and longevity maintenance needed with estimated costs.

Great SUV!

I've owned many kinds of vehicles: low end entry cars, other SUV's, great sport cars, high end mini-vans and a really cool Harley. I can honestly say that after 226,000 miles with the 4Runner, every time I drive someone else's car or truck I appreciate the Toyota quality much more. It should be noted that I've spent less on this rig after 17 years, than any of my other cars. Okay, the interior needs some rehab, which is next on list, but... if you want a great SUV that is reliable and fun to drive getta 4Runner!...and of course I HAVE to to say: see my man, Joe Liotta, @ Toyota of Puyallup. There isn't a better dealership... I do miss my Porsche sometimes...

2003 4Runner V8 Limited

Great vehicle! 230K miles and it runs as good as new. No major parts failures, nothing but normal wear and tear. This vehicle has 150 more Horsepower than my Chev Tahoe and gets better fuel economy! will buy again

Bought this used from an elderly couple who bought it new and kept it in peek performance and well maintained, it was 14 years old when I bought it and in near perfect shape - I love this vehicle more than any I've ever had, the quality, comfort, handling, it's like no other - it's truly an amazing vehicle I hope to keep for a million miles or more

Best Vehicle Ever

Just had it in first regular service at Marickio’s in Colorado Springs!! They say it’s in great shape. Cost about $75 today. It’s been months and a motif mikes since it’s needed any service! Not bad at all for a car with well over 260,000 miles in it!

Best Car Ever!

I’ve had my Toyota 4Runner for over 15 years! Together we passed 250,000 miles recently on a trip to California to see family. This car has needed so little maintenance over the years it is truly unbelievable! It is a dream to drive and I’m counting on it to last as long as I do!

Awesome!

I’m already for my 2nd Forerunner. I would love to have a newer model, but cry satisfied with my current vehicle. It’s a wonderful vehicle; reliable, fun to drive and looks great. The forerunner is a wonderful vehicle

Most amazing vehicle I have ever driven!

In 30 years driven a lot of vehicles; the Forerunner is by far the best of the best. I think it is the ultimate driving machine!!! Doesn’t have a monster truck feel, but it gets the job done, I am already considering buying a newer model, but I would hate to part with the 2003 that I own. I feel sorry for the competition!

Best Rig I Ever Had

At 175,000 miles it is beginning to have a little bit of natural ware. The vehicle still drives like it is new. I can’t believe how well it has held up for fifteen years. All of the features including the four wheel drive system still work.

Toyotas for life

First was used 1984 Land Cruiser that is still running on a ranch in Texas. Second was a used 1990 4Runner. Motor failed at 150K miles due to blown head gasket, under recall, so Toyota installed new $6000 engine for free. Still have it with near 300,000 miles as back up car. Currently with 2003 4Runner, 214,000 miles. Recent hail storm totaled it. Insurance gave me $6400, let me keep it, so driving it with dents. Suspect it will out live me. Why would I buy anything else?

Love my 4-Runner. Never want to drive anything else.

I have almost 240,00 miles on my 4-runner and it still looks and runs great. Sure, there have been some repairs over the years; a fuse here or a door lock there, but overall, it is amazingly dependable. I don't like the current body styles so I'm waiting to see what the next style will look like. I might get a new one and give mine to my daughter.
