We don't buy big Toyotas for the mpgs. We buy them because of the savings in the reliability department. We keep them for 15 to 25 years. That's where the savings comes into play.
Buy a 4Runner. Change the oil. Go forever
Toyota 4EverRunner
Absolutely that engine will never die as long as you do regular maintenance just so well built. I have a forerunner and two of my friends have forerunners. I bought a forerunner because my friend has one with 620,000 miles give or take a few hundred miles. He’s always traveling around has went everywhere pretty much hit every trail in the Northwest every desert in the southwest almost no rust just some scratches and a few dings from rocks and the occasional parking lot door. Ding. It’s really safe to buy used one with 200,000 miles. You can pick them up pretty cheap you’re gonna probably get 200,000 more just do the maintenance that’s all you have to do.
Any well maintained japanese car will last a long time
Then get it stolen, then shipped to either Africa, China or the UAE 💀💀
In the Nordic countries you can't buy such a car. Gas and diesel prices 2 euro/litre, about 7.5 USD/gallon, yearly roadtaxes maybe over 2,000 USD/year. Toyota doesn't even try to sell them!
RAV4 and Toyota HiLux are the biggest Toyota sold in the Nordic countries, maybe they sell 10-20 Landcruisers, too.
I drive a 2003 Lexus GX 470. Bought it in 2005 with 28,000 miles on it. Today I have 184,000 miles and it runs great and still looks great. Very little maintenance over the years, mostly regular service. The great thing is No Payments, Lower License Fees and Great Reliability.
You forgot the most important feature of the 4Runner that keeps them so good. They’re made in JAPAN. Much higher quality and attention to detail.
My dad's Camry was made in Kentucky, and was still running like new when I sold it at 400,000 kms.
They are solid for sure
So much for "Support the economy, buy American!"
@@alansach8437 hey. Don’t shoot the messenger. If you don’t believe me, just watch Scotty Kilmer. He says the same thing and he has 50+ years of mechanic experience.
@@alansach8437 sorry but I want my truck last long lol
The 4Runner is bulletproof because of old proven technology. No: cylinder deactivation, no stupid annoying stop/start. No 8, 9, or 10spd auto trans.
It's irritating when they leave out the year of auto they're talking about. Even the best manufacture periodically will roll out a crap auto. PLEASE GIVE US THE YEAR OF AUTO YOU'RE CRITIQUING! Along with best years and worst years. Thank you!
You nailed this video Mark..cheers!
Awesome details. Gracias señor 🙏🏾
Hey Mark, This Review's Absolutely OnPoint 💯🙏
Thank you very much Don, I really appreciate that. Hope your week is going well.
I purchased a regular ICE 2022 RAV4 XLE. The start/stop feature drove me crazy. After 4 weeks, I traded it for a 2022 RAV4 XLE Hybrid. The hybrid comes out of the hole quicker, the start/stop feature is much better integrated, and I go over 100 more miles between fill-ups.
Love watching your videos. What is your thoughts on 2020 BMW 30d x6 ? Thanks in advance

I have a 2018 RAV4 with 159,000 miles , only thing I done to it is new plugs , new brakes , flush radiator and change oil every 5k miles. Though the miles are mostly highway miles as I travel back and forth to work every weekend.
Wow that’s a great run. Still good for many more too
I think it's wild that people are making mention of cars lastinh 40-60k miles and think it's notable to mention their car is still running strong.
I have a 2019 Nissan Murano with almost 63K. No problems whatsoever in almost 4 years of ownership. Change transmission fluid every 35-40K and bought an extended warranty just in case. Change oil every 3,000 with full synthetic. Hoping to get to 250K.👍 No direct injection or turbocharged engine just a port injection V6.
I have a Murano 2006 whit 290K so far no problem still going strong I have never change transmission fluid n I'll never do it I don't care what dealer said, engine oil change just synthetic around 8000k no more than that all this info is in kilometer good luck whit ur Murano.
I like your style. Good work.
I appreciate that!
Its not the engines go. Its the rust that eats away in the long run.
Krown
Sir, an episode I would like to see is: What cars resist corrosion from road salt the best and what are the best underbody treatments to protect from salt.
It doesn't snow where I am but I think it would make a good episode.
agreed
I like KROWN RUST
Just put a car cover lol
Absolutely
Had 5 cars in 63 yrs
2 from Atlanta and
Despite through Tuff coat or Zeibart within 3/4 they rusted out.
The worst was a Mazda GLC,/Mercury Tracer wagon ( Ford Escort).
I have a 2020 Mazda CX-5 Grand Touring with 26,000 miles and I love it. So far it's been very reliable. My wife drives it most of the time, but my next vehicle for me to drive is gonna be a 4runner.
For only 26k miles I would certainly hope you haven’t had any issues! That is barely over 6k miles per year.
Better run well at 26k. That's not many miles.
I like your comparison from Arizona
Highlander, GX, Land Cruiser, and RX could all be on this list.
Everything you say is true 100% and we need to know which years are most reliable before i buy a car i watch your videos at least thrice before i take decision
any model year of 4 runner. It is build for last long and seemingly it's doesn't change much about engine, it built for stay last long, the next change will be 2025 with 4 cylinder and turbo. I won't take its model year. 2024 or older model years are far better, if you don't mind about mpg. Guaranteed first 15 year ( if you buy 2024) you just need change oil regular, brake and fill up gas to go.
@@khakimal thank you i really appreciate how for your idea👌
Sad part, they still use a "TIMING BELT"
What is the turbo failure rate on these gas engines? What is the average cost of replacement?
Spot on, Mark. Toyota products/Lexus and the entire Toyota line. Honda and Mazda, too. 2024 is the last year of the naturally aspirated Toyotas, and the turbo 4cyl are the replacement, but if history of the brand and reliability remains true, the company's long time expertise in hybrids and EV should have no substantial downside unlike Ford and GM.
GM and Ford turbo engines are actually pretty good now. Toyota will work through issues quickly. The 2.4t has been out for several years now. Toyota had a 2.0t in some Lexus models and it was reliable.
Basically buy Japanese and stay away from American and British scrap
@@AliAlo-pc5ud If QDR is a top priority, definitely stay with Japanese.
I have a 19 nissan murano with 47+k miles rock solid no problems at all ❤❤❤❤
Marke 🇨🇦 Mark , thank you for your analysis on these vehicles!
Question on a 2020 BMW X2 used 29 k miles Thxs Amigo
Not bad. I like the way they drive and the newer generation of engines is much better so to me it’s worth the gamble.
@@ECPP Thank you for your answer ✌️
the4runner taillights i think they are oem not aftermarket
Isn’t that A25A-FKS the same engine as in your Camry, Mark?
Weldone Sir,is 2008 Toyota Corolla ce a good car to buy used?
It's good
I bought a 2020 Mercedes S450 - beautiful car with lots of little issues. Dealer told me both rear rims were cracked with just 20,000 miles. Traded it in asap on a RAM 1500
20000 is pretty good for a Mercedes. My s550 was shit by 20k and I sold for 5k just to stop the bleeding. In a ls450 lexus again and I will not look back
Can't wait for this guy to review 1) the 2025 Toyota Crown Signia, and 2) the 2025 Toyota Camry. I believe both models will be available for sale starting in the summer of 2024.
I'm sold on Toyota! I've been a Ford owner for over 50 years. My newest car is a low miles 2017 4Runner Limited and I absolutely am in love with my SUV! I've already put new wheels/tires and a Pro Foam Suspension lift kit by Ironman 4x4 for starters. I also have a new AFN laser cut/welded front bumper from Portugal that I'm installing next month. As much as I've loved Fords (my 1st car was a 64 T-Bird convertible when I turned 17), I wanted a more reliable car and had not considered Toyota until now. Better late than never! 😉😁👍
Great video you mentioned mazda cx5 (recommend) is the cx50 as reliable please respond.
I have a tale of two cities- a 4Runner and a Jeep wrangler. Luckily, my Jeep has been running like a winner, so far!
A family friend who works at honda in sales told me the 1.5L turbos still have oil dilution issues as of 2022.
See that’s not ideal
@@ECPPYeah, I switched from Honda to Subaru because Honda Motor company that made the most reliable engines in the world for 40 years dropped the ball and Subaru fixed their head gasket and oil leak problems. Toyota still making rattle traps at $38,000. Subies CVT now going as much as 300,000 miles if you change the fluid every 50,000. Nothing like driving a Subaru with their low slung engines and real all time all wheel. A used Subie vs used Toyota, I would gamble on Toyota. The reason being that Subaru requires perfect maintenance while Toyota doesn't. I really like Mazda for their drive trains and sportiness but the CX5 I test drove lacked handling feel, driver seat comfort, real usable cargo compared to the 2022 Forester Touring that I purchased. Like I said, the 2022 Rav4 I test drove rattled like a 1961 Ford Falcon Wagon. I'm old, I got to have quiet, comfort, top safety and top handling. 25,000 on my Forester Touring and still makes me smile every time I drive it.
some are suggesting using higher octane to keep it under control.
@@tracy2762 You can find it on the internet. Honda engineers got this bright idea to only cross hatch the very top and bottom portions of the cylinder walls to create less blow-by. They not only did it to the turbo blocks but did it to the non turbo of same dimension blocks to save money. Then they went on to lying to customers about the oil consumption. They brought the cars in and changed the software settings to slightly lower boost. Just 3 months later the cars were consuming oil again. It's one thing to screw up an engine design, yet another to lie to customers as if they were Ford. One thing about Toyota is they admit to their screw ups and take care of their customers.
@@tracy2762 one of the main reasons of buying an economy car is to avoid premium gas.
I have an 09 Hyundai Sonata. I have 230k OG miles I'm the original owner. All I do is keep up with maintenance. Drives better than the day I bought it.
Ford ranger xlt 1996 w/ 1.3 million miles.. Sold it at 90,000 after odometer rolled.. lady I sold it to put on the rest, haven't talked to her in the last 6 months or so but it's still running
So the truck has had 46,000 per year put on it? Absolutely amazing.
What is the oldest year would you go back to on the RAV4 and CRV and CX-5 please?
My 2014 CRV Touring is awesome
The 2019 keeps popping up as a year to avoid in both the Highlander & the RAV4
Marc, you talk about reliability...
I read a week ago about the heavy truck manufacturer, Swedish Scania. They cooperate with the Swedish battery manufacturer Northvolt which is "new".
Scania will only buy batteries that last 1.5 million km/ 1 million miles! Tests have shown that that is no problem (with today's technology!)!
I think that heavy truck batteries always will be fast charged...
So if the car batteries don't last that long , they have made them last shorter! Designed them to last shorter, or even much shorter. For the Chinese car Nio with exchangeable batteries it's important that the batteries last as long as possible, as they own the batteries... If the idea of exchanging batteries survive.
An interesting situation, indeed.
The older, 2008 Lexus RX 350 is an excellent mid-size SUV.
Totally a durable unit. Run it to failure can get tons of miles.
Got an ‘04 RX330 AWD..45,500 runs like a top
Love the Rav 4
Work horse
I got a '69 Chevy with a 396. Fuelie heads and a hurst on the floor. She's waiting tonight down in the parking lot, outside the Seven-Eleven store
Not sure about the Honda. The oil dilution has been improved but not fixed. As far as I know. Not sure how long that engine will go. We will see.
We will see, yes not out of the woods yet, although getting. Better
My 2019 3.6 v6 Chevy Colorado has 149,000 miles on it with no problems.
Great run
In the market to buy a Lexus NX 300 2020-2021, is this car bound to last forever like all other Lexus and Toyota cars
Any suggestions on plugin hybrids such as rav4 , outlander
RAV4-Primes are made in Japan🇯🇵👍
I would've swapped the Rav4 with the GX460 :)
Thanks.
My 2006 explorer 4.6 200k no problems. Last of the body on chassis. EZ to work on. New explorer models are garbage. Great video
Hi Mark,
Is the Subaru Forester reliable
More or less yes. If driven easily and maintained they can go a long time. Some oil burning though
No
Toyota base models still come with hubcapped wheels. Wiring under the hood is thin with flimsy connectors...the kind you see in a dollar store. All of these care now have more and more plastic and rubber and less and less metal. Yet, the price has never been higher. Some people are easily satisfied.
I have a 2018 Honda Accord with the 1.5 engine and the only problem I had so far with it is the ac blowing hot air. I know about the oil dilution that was plaguing civics and CRV’s from 2016-2018. I recently checked my oil level and on the dipstick it was still good and I didn’t smell any gas on it. I like to get my oil changed every 5,000 miles or so and I also make sure to drive the car nicely at first to let it warm up. If I keep doing these things, the accord could last a long time. P.S. I saw a couple 2019 accords with the 1.5 with over 300k!!!
With a turbo it is a good idea to let the engine idle before shut down because the coolant can cool the turbo better.
@@mikefoehr235 well I always like to let it idle for a few minutes to put the defroster when it’s cold on, and when it’s warmer I’ll let it sit for about 30 seconds and then I’ll go.
My Accord touring 2018 just blew hot air. Dealer gave an appointment to fix for free because it is a recall AC condenser. Fixed recall seat belts buckets last year and this September to fix recall fuel pump, no charge.
@@lthai1000 I should be getting that recall done at some point this fall I believe is when Honda said the parts will be available. So far no issues with that.
The rule says the more the car and the engin are simple the more they last forever with right maintenance of cours
I am planning to buy my first vehicle and my contenders are: 2016 Toyota Rav4, 2016 Honda Pilot or 2016 Kia Sorento, any recommendations 🤔
On this navy I would go Ho da Pilot
@ECPP thanks, everyone. I have asked have said the same.
Problem is these have become super high theft risks
In Canada? I don’t think in the U.S.
@@golferpro1241 Definitely Canada bro, had a guy who got his RX truck stolen 3 times in one year
We have an Acura tl, Toyota Yaris and a Toyota Tundra sitting safely on my driveway. No one comes near them. 🇺🇲.
Yeah but its not just about you chief, there are thousands of owners of these cars out there that have experienced thefts. check the police records@@pip393
I love my Sequoia land yacht, didn’t buy it for fuel economy!!!
What about rav4 hybrid
2.5L 4-Cyl. Hybrid Engine with All-Wheel Drive
Electronically controlled Continuously Variable Transmission (ECVT)
Great setup
You just made a video talking about how Hondas quality has dropped and you specifically point out the honda crv 1.5 litre engine. So which is it?
I've read that the 1.5 ltr is overstressed and won't last. Best to stick with the larger 2.4 ltr engine.
I still have my 2005 envoy with 213k miles
For reliable luxury, the Lexus GX460.
For sure
You forgot a Tahoe 5.3 and 5.7
I can't find the first video, even though I'm sure I've watched it already 😮
You bet
Toyotas- old tech- 5 sp transmission but they last!
I've seen a 2019 Toyota rav4 hybrid with 420,000 miles on the clock already. Just tires and oil changes
Really? 100,000 miles per year
@@ECPP yes they drive for work delivering medical stuff. Also has a rav4 for personal use
How about the gx460 Lexus?
Yes. A few top end cooking leak issues which can be dealt with but I really a very long runner. Excellent vehicles
7.5 sec for a 4Runner is quite quick .
No dog
Toyota and Lexus go on forever.
Yes
DON'T QUIT PLEASE
yes 4runner forever
Toyota HiLuX for the win🏆, like those used in the Middle East 😊👍
I go with hybrid instead of turbo
Cheers
How long the vehicle last depends on the owner some people they never change the engine oil
Which years are we speaking of ?
I just bought a 2024 Mazda cx 30 none turbo sweet riding Suv
Awesome little unit
Toyota 2024 trucks are now going to 4 cylinder 8 speed at high horse power 360hp
Life is too short to drive boring cars 👍
Having a reliable vehicle is important, but let's face it, how many people would keep a vehicle long enough to put a million miles on it anyway? Fleet owners, maybe? Ranch owner? But most people get much more than a couple hundred thousand miles (if that), a mess of dings, scratches, faded paint, a decade of driving the same vehicle, and they are ready to move on.
Doesn't mean that the vehicle needs to be scrapped. A reliable vehicle that is well maintained should also depreciate less, so if the owner wants something newer or different, it is easy to trade up.
what about the Toyota corolla cross?
Reliable
Chevy suburban i think is actually the top of the real list
Also check the Infiniti QX56/QX80 500 k easy no sweat with no problems
Thanks for sharing
The ecvt in the Toyota RAV4 and other Toyotas is the most reliable. Not the 8 speed!! And the hybrid in general is more reliable and lower maintenance costs than a standard Toyota
Not true.
hallo
did u know about Benz GLK 220 is that good,
i live in germany
I was interested until you got to the Mazda and showed an on screen list including a BMW.
thanks
I have a 4Runner and my wife has a RAV4, I guess we wont need a new vehicle for a decade.
If anyone considers this a honest, unbiased report I have a few bridges you may be interested in
No 200 series Land Cruiser?
Subaru Outback is a great car. Subaru make great cars also
Well…..
Buy a NISSAN ARMADA! Body on frame, V8, load leveling suspension, just enough tech! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Lexus all the way.
00:27 Toyota 4Runner
02:49 Honda CR-V
04:51 Mazda CX-5
07:02 Toyota RAV 4
09:03 Toyota Sequoia
Not surprisingly, GM, Ford, Jeep and Jaguar/Land Rover are nowhere to be found in this lineup.
Exactly, that’s no accident
Whats ypur thghts on Subaru? Its my understanding that Subarus last just as long as Toyota
Subarus are not on the same level of durability. Only thing Subaru has is their superior awd and more space in a ugly station wagon
Wow, imagine having to keep and drive one of these unstylish bricks that love to guzzle gas, for 300,000 miles.
Nissan Patrol/Armada/INFINITI QX80….5.6 V8. Bomb proof.
Thanks for sharing
Nissan is partly owned by the French government. Most Nissan sold in North America is built in Mexico. Quality is sub par.
@@ericle7299 my Infiniti QX80 bought in the states was made in Kyushu,Japan.
General Motors 2.0L engines from the 1990s. General Motors 2.2L engines from the 1990s. General motors 3.1 and 3.4 and 3.8 engines, from the 1990s. Those are the most reliable engines that immediately come to mind when I think of reliable engines.
I don't believe in the foreign brands. I had a 1987 Chevrolet Celebrity. It was 12 years old when I purchased it. Got a good 13 years out of it. Drive train outlasted the body.
Would be Japanese auto sales.
Got myself a Honda 2017 CR-V no problem
Change oil in every car last forever
Here (in the Nordic countries) dealers say "we have a good maintained BMW with 160,000 km/100,000 miles" that means that the oil has been changed between 25 and 30,000 km/every 16-18,000 miles, without exception...
Instead of changing oil in the automatic 6 or 8 speed gearbox, most people drive till it fails...and are then highly surprised of the short "lifetime" and the high cost to repair it... 🥺
Maybe it depends on the fact that a few people nowadays work with machineries that need maintenance almost every day, and they don't understand that the manufacturer want to sell you a new car after maximum 5-7 years or no more than 100,000 miles...
who pays you off so well, dude?
Me myself and I
There is several Hondas with over a million miles not very many Toyotas at all.. This Toyota was VERY LUCKY to last that long compared to an older Honda!
