Best vehicle ever

My 2009 4Runner has been the greatest vehicle ever for me. I can’t imagine the day I have to part ways with it. I hope it lasts for several more years and keeps traveling the road with me! 4 Runners are definitely my favorite vehicle. When I bought mine used, I never saw any others anywhere, now 4Runners are the thing!!

2009 SR5 V6 4Runner

The 2009 SR5 V6 4Runner is a great vehicle with exception to the blown power steering pump and transmission issue. Fortunately, these problems occurred before the 100K warranty was up, so the work to fix these extremely expensive problems were covered, in addition to the newly install drive that also needed to be replaced. The head space in the front seats are a little shorter than my previous 1994 4Runner (my sunglasses hit the ceiling when they are on the top of my head) and I really miss the drop down tailgate from that 4Runner. The back seats are OK, but cramped when there are 3 passengers in back for those longer road trips. Gas efficiency is better than the 1994 and an automatic is a must for Seattle traffic. Gas cap seal does fail overtime, so replace, disengage the battery, and see if the dash light turn off before bringing it in for service. Also, don't forget (like I did) that there is a pressure sensor on the spare tire! So far, over 200K miles and doing great! Hoping for 200K more!

Love my Toyota!!

I'm so happy with my 4Runner. Love the dependability and ride. Hope she runs for another 100k. I would recommend for anyone to buy a Toyota. My last vehicle was a Avalon and loved that car also. I think I will always own a Toyota!!

2009 4Runner

Was rough right before reaching 100k mi...replaced the transmission and power steering pump that shreaded the brand new belt. But everything was under warantee, so no cost to me because I got the extra warantee, thank goodness! Other than that, the truck is great on the road, in the snow, on the beach, in the woods....love my 4Runner and the folks that take care of it for me!

2009 4Runner V6

I have to admit, my 4Runner had some issues right before reaching 100K miles. Luckily, I purchased the extended warrantee. The dealer replaced the new belt that was destroyed by the power steering fluid that spewed under the hood when the gear box blew. They replace the gear box and the power steering pump, but forgot to check the transmission that I mention was acting unusual. Brought my 4Runner back in again, and they just replaced the transmission after the mechanic road with me to feel what it was doing. I was out my 4Runner for a couple weeks, but they gave me a loaner car so get around. I always have them work on my Toys because they know what work was done and I know they are the only ones that touch it. I did like the tailgate on my old 4Runner, but this one has nice perks, too! Moon roof, key-less entry, more leg room in the back, but not very comfortable back seats for long road trips. Nice extra shelf for storage and cover in the back, better gas mileage than my old 4Runner, but would like to see them get even better gas mileage.
