What an informative review. Thank you for showing us how to fold the seats down. And for showing us your Ironman diorama, which I'm sure was coincidence that it happened to be in the truck that day...
🤣 hey, he probably posted it on Facebook Instagram and Snapchat, went for gold with UA-cam
I personally don’t mind the 6 inch screen; Hell, even if it had no screen. The simplicity of this vehicle is its charm! Look at those beefy turn dials on the dash. I’m lucky that this is my wife’s dream car!
Felt this. I can’t wait for my partner to get her 4Runner so I can take it out for a drive muahaha
I own an '89 4Runner, and I love to see how Toyota has stayed true to itself when it comes to the 4Runner. Kinda dated style, but it's a good one tho. Also love the rear window detail, my 4Runner rear window lowers like that too.
Nice review!
I've been watching lots of 2019 TRD Pro videos even after I got mine last month, and yes, I got it in Voodoo Blue. You're right, it definitely gets looks wherever I go. Just yesterday I had a blue Ram pull up next to me at a stoplight and the guy motioned for me to lower my window, and when I did he immediately said 'That's a nice blue!'.
Anyway, I couldn't be happier with this 4Runner. I've already gotten some additional tint done (sunstrip) and rock sliders, and plan on many more adventuring modifications in the future.
Again, nice video!
Have you had a issue with smelling a slight burning smell when you stomp on the gas to pass someone. It is not bad or overwhelming, but I was curious if you had an issue with this as well. I truly enjoy my voodoo blue 4runner. I went from a 2006 jeep TJ to the 4runner. Everyone is talking about lack of technology. I finally have power windows! And, a touch screen entertainment system to boot. Nothing but good things to say, except the slight smell(initially, then goes away) when I stomp on the pedal. Normal driving, there is no smell. Thanks
Why the back cup holders look like they fall over
Really liked the cupholder and window switch part.
My favourite UA-camr ever reviews one of my favorite cars,thank you Dave and keep up the good work
I just bought a 2021 4Runner SR5 Premium. I love it!!!
Hey Everyman! Please 4Runner vs Tacoma ! Please please
4runners are expensive, especially the trd pro models, but they run forever, well worth the money you put into it, planning on buying one of these babies after the navy, hooyah.
Toyota Win ❤ Japanese is the Best
I traded my 4Runner in for a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. I liked the 4Runner better. I traded the Jeep in for a Tundra...now I'm set...I hope
Funny i got this same 19' Pro in Voodoo Blue with a traded in Jeep....
I looked at the 4R when I was trading my 2 door JK. Decided I wanted a 4 door Jeep Rubicon Recon. The 4R rides a lot better on road, but the Jeep is better off road. The lack of LED headlights was a deal killer. I just couldn't get past the front end of the 4R and the Jeep is far easier to modify. I still love the 4R. Both are great vehicles for their intended use.
SaintNick71 well said. They are both really good vehicles depending on what you want to do. I decided that the 4R was better for me than the jeep because of wanting to be a daily driver and a trail riding camp vehicle. I live in Florida which makes a decision easier as well. I think if I lived in the mountains or out west I would probably consider a jeep more.
SaintNick71 The Jeep is a wonderful vehicle. Especially off-road
j burggg Luckily the 4R is really good off-road
You can also open and close the back window with the key in the back key hole by turning it one way and holding..... I have a ‘19 and have apple play.....
So you swapped out the headunit?
The 4Runner is likely my next vehicle once one of our leases comes up in about 18 months. However, I agree with you 100% about the engine ... I have to believe Toyota can improve the HP and torque in that 4.0L. If GM can get over 300hp and 300lb. ft of torque from their 3.6, this 4.0 has to be capable of more. It's a big heavy truck too, a bit more power wouldn't be the worst thing.
Nice review. As a family man; the dust, food crumbs, car seat, misc liquids on the seats, starbucks cups and napkin/wrapper garbage really speaks to me.
My dad just got a 2019 1500 Ram and the interior is so nice if I could put that interior that includes a digital dash and so many upgrades to a 4Runner I wouldn’t 2nd guess getting a 4Runner and an trunk door that has a button to lower it would make 4runners so much better
That’s exactly like my 2015 4RUNNER. Which I love.
Nice.....looks like a bigger RAV 4 from the outside.
Pro 1: Virtually indestructible
I own a 2008 4runner with 132k miles on it and there's no rust and it looks practically new besides alittle bit of faded paint on the front bumper that I'm getting fixed soon and it runs so good!! only had it for about a year now, The only thing I'd trade it for is a newer 4runner or Tacoma lol
Thanks for the info! Exactly what I needed to see!
Just got voodoo blue. Love it. In michigan you don't need to go off road...just drive down the street. Lol!
@Grateful Girl I am drooooooooooooooling with jealousy at your purchase. Did you order it or was it at our local dealer?
This color is gorgeous, and I wish Toyota made it available in more trims than the TRD Pro.
Have that same color in my ‘19 camry
What’s the link to that staying alive remix tho it kinda slaps
You’d be a great sports caster. Big 💰 😎
Great truck!!! I got 2 4-runners!!! Love them both!!! One for work and one for play!!! Adding a Tundra crewmax for the 23' boat!!! 👍👍👍👍👍😎
Both both brand new special order from Japan!!!
Great video!!!👍👍👍👍👍😎
Only thing I’m disappointed they didn’t put the wireless charger mod in them
I would buy one in a heartbeat if it had blind spot monitoring and Apple Car plays
How could we want something that is terrible on gas, slow as a hell, dated, and a pure example of inefficient last forever...toyota is just seating at his reputation of reliability and leaving all the rest behind...how can someone pay $50k for 2000 technology car?... Toyota is laughing on this people...I did a test drive and this car is one of the worse cars I ever tried...
Save your cash and buy the trd off road or off road premium. Can save roughly 10,000 bucks because dealers mark up the pro’s so much. Same vehicle without the low grade fox suspension that most people change anyway. And the pro wheels can be purchased for 650 or less when they go on sale.
Was just about to write that.(or re-write that for the umpteenth time) It boggles my mind why people spend so much on something like that and then strip it apart and recreate it. Look I have KDSS on my brand new model because it gives me better articulation off road and stability on road. Now I am going to jack it up 5 inches and make it obsolete. (1 example) To each their own. But it is a waste of a vehicle configuration and money.
4runners are the Best!! My v8 03 Sport has 190k miles & stills drives like its New!
There's a 2nd USB header in the console.
Bryan Kral where?
There isnt
Nope
This 4Runner is Storm Breaker
I thought you where douge DeMuro from the thumbnail
The 2020 model or newer has the Apple Car Play & Android Auto
I agree the radio volumes need to copy American s car.
4th gen has more luxurious interior finishes
Planning on buying a 2020 SR5(premium), do you think the dealers can install that roof rack on it? I’m talking about that exact roof rack on the TRD pro (originally from the FJ cruisers) i had an FJ before and that roof rack did me justice.
New 8” infotainment with CarPlay / Android auto and safety sense announced for next year.
And in Army Green, too
Look better than the subaru crosstrek
Does it have Full Time 4Wheel option.
Trd pro doesnt, but i believe the Limited spec has full time 4wd
No. It has the mini shifter to shift back and from H2/H4
At least they don't leak when it rains like the newer jeeps do! Edit- I like the front because it looks like an old Asian cartoon character to me! I laugh every time I look at it. It only shows up clearly on certain colors. LOL!
If you drive off road every day then this is a SUV for you . I think.
What a strange crackhead-like intro....
Great video!
Glad you liked it!
I currently own a Highlander but am very interested in the 4Runner. Which one would be better for a family? I owned a Jeep Grand Cherokee which I traded for the Highlander and I must admit I miss it. I’ve been told that I made the right choice in getting a Toyota though.
reginaalear 4Runner without a doubt
Unless you need something that's capable off-road, I would stick with the Highlander. Other than off-road capability and perhaps interior cargo space, it's going to be better than the 4Runner in every way. Don't get me wrong, the 4Runner is a great vehicle, if you need that type of vehicle. I bought one a few months ago, and I love it. After driving it though, I'm kind of puzzled by so many people drive them to just chauffer the kids around and such. Mine, I plan on using it to go camping and off-roading, so that's why I wanted something with that capability. A Jeep Wrangler was also high on my list, but Toyota reliability won out.
Michael Smith I never go off reading. I enjoy the smooth ride of the Highlander. I was wondering if the 4Runner had the same smooth ride. I’m assuming it wouldn’t be with the size difference. My Grand Cherokee was kind of bulky and was rough riding. My husband has back problems and complained about how uncomfortable it was every time I would go over bumps and potholes.
@@reginaalear no, your Highlander would probably ride much nicer. I would say just go out and drive a 4Runner if you're curious. You'll probably be surprised at how truck- like it is. They're big and slow, and they don't handle very well. They have some fancy suspension pieces available that make them handle a little better, but still probably nowhere as nice as your Highlander. Also, I don't know if you need a third row seat, nor am I familiar with the setup in the Highlander, but I can say from looking at a friend's 4Runner that the third row in the 4Runner is very small. And when it's in use there's very little cargo space left. What year is your Grand Cherokee? I had a 97 that rode a pretty rough after I modified it, but I thought the newer ones were pretty much luxury Vehicles these days.
Michael Smith mine was a 2017 limited 75th anniversary edition. I thought the highlander was a much nicer ride but once I traded the Jeep off I miss it. I told my husband once I pay off the Highlander I may go back and get another Jeep.
5 mins in... Be real this is for pulling up in front of a rival gang and lowering the glass when your boys are on target. Obviously
U of I frat bro! Class of 2002. Just a guess haha
kind of outdated but i guess i understand the target market for these cool things
The biggest con is no driver side pillar handle
Biggest con is the price. Way too much for what you get
Debating between a grand cherokee and a 4runner, which one would you prefer?
Scott D what are your daily habits?
@@everymandriver mostly a daily Urban commuter, however i encounter situations where I need to do minimal off-road driving.
Inside you'll notice no tech...also many reports of wheel shake at 60mph with no resolve. Bad wheel shake...any issues with yours? Would like to buy one but worried about shaking
BamBam Music My 2018 had no issues. Even when I got ko2’s to replace the stock tires at 3000 miles, I still had no issues
All depends on the wheels you got. Dealers put street tires on a truck which is why lol. I got all terrain and got no shake
Say now you fellas gots to know there ain't no mud like Spokane mud.
Awww come on, now every time I see an off-road vehicle here I expect some off-roading, maybe breaking through some ice?!!!! Haha
Does it driver smoother than Tacoma ?
It may be dated, but would want no other vehicle in an apocalypse situation! What? It could happen!
Give me that with a manual transmission, and I’m sold. (Shut up and take my money! 😎)
John B a Ferrari
John B Cadillac
John B would a Challenger work
Yes sir, the Zombie Apocalypse vehicle of choice!!
Bought a brand new TRD Pro 2019. Drove it off the lot with 1 mile. Heard a small knocking noise in the right front suspension. Slept on it. The next day it was very pronounced so we took it back to the dealer in Denver. The mechanic heard it as well. I returned the vehicle with 27 miles for a full refund. Two weeks later was informed there is a problem with the fox shocks. The independent valves inside the shock were freezing not allowing the proper flow of hydraulic fluid based upon the terrain selected. I was told Toyota engineering was hoping to find a fix within 10 months. Has anyone experienced this?
I hope you found an answer
Great vehicle, BUT....god that gas mileage is HORRIBLE. When gas gets back to 3 or 4 bucks (and it will) this truck dies in value and costs an arm and a leg to drive.
“Thank god I watched Dave’s video”
Rear slider good for the dogs to hang their head out get some fresh air while slobbering over the tail gate..........
Toyota doesn't design the 4Runner with the intention of it being appealing to everyone nor do they need to with their complete line up of other SUVs. When are people going to accept this? You either like the 4Runner's chacteristics or it's not the vehicle for you.
I love the beastly thing= honest, old school makes no apologies truck. Nice and comfortable for what it is, without being pretentious or loaded with stuff I don't want to pay for.
Stellar history of reliability.
The only real complaint I have is the headlights...unacceptably poor for a modern vehicle, even a truck. Hopefully this will be addressed in the redesign.
Can this be a daily grocery getter?
maniac32145 Well...yeah but certainly not the most economical to run grocery getter by a long shot.
I’ve been considering one myself. I saw a guy with a brand new one (cardboard license plate) recently in store parking lot, asked him how he liked it (even though he probably didn’t have it long enough to value his opinion). He said, “This is the 4th one I’ve owned, I love them!”. Well then, his opinion is worth a lot! So I asked if It bugged him that it didn’t have Apple Car Play. His answer, “What is that?”
I have the previous generation 4Runner an 2005 one and I’ve owned many performance sport sedans in past and still own one to this day the beauty of these trucks is how there easy af to maintain, they get the job done pure and simple. The headlights don’t even bother me at all there’s always the aftermarket for that but I always highly recommend Bilsteins 5100 with a minor lift and call it a day.
I recently bought one and I really do like it it's big beastly mine has 3 row seats feels like a little tank but it is REALLY outdated no key less entry push start Android auto automatic headlights. It's a 5 speed bullet proof yes but the thing gets thirsty. I do recommend the 4runner I just wish they would upgrade the internals and drivetrain but keep the shell . Nonetheless I'm happy with it .
You are in Spokane? Do you have a group you go wheeling with? I’ve been looking for a group and live in Spokane as well
Jordon Tuttle he totally said some Spokane mud. I’m from BC, about an hour and a half drive south. I own a ‘19 pro in super white.
Hell, I'm 24, but I got that etch a sketch reference. I had one as a kid too, and don't sleep on Toy Story. Enjoyed the video, thanks!
What brand / type of window mount do you have in this demo? Is it secure? Do you rate it highly?
Hey I didn't know you did IRONMAN. Respect man. That is harddddd
Dave is a hardass!
Yeah you should see the size of his calves it's insane.
He still cries about the ponypower wishes there was more. I drove a 1987 Toyota pickup with maybe a hundred worn-out, sway-back nag horses at the wheels. He whines about two hundred fifty horses, where's my hankie!?
he’s been doing it for a long time. how would u not know? he was a pro at one point
What about the suspension upgrade? What about the factory lift kit? What about the factory upgraded tires? What about your opinions on that gear? How to fold a seat down? Really? I could have gotten all this info from a brochure...which I did. I wanna know how it rides and handles, a real review! What a let down... :(
bigdog33bad you’re a let down.
I HATE the 2020 door locks!
I heard a rumour the 2020 4runner and Tacoma will have Apple Carplay, still no Android Auto, unfortunately.
Apple car play, android auto, and amazon alexa confirmed for 2020
Everything for 2020! ANDROID AUTO AND APPLE CARPLAY!
You actually get Apple Carplay, Android Auto and Amazon Alexa accros the whole board f the 2019 Toyota truck Line up. L
@@TheProPokemonPlayer That's great!
@@JJustinXu Nice!
Great reviewer! Btw, if you want more horsepower from your Toyota then use premium fuel always. You'll have instant power. Toyota has always recommended premium over regular for best performance.
And or, combine them both, fuel additives. I like Seafoam for gas motors and Lucas for my Diesals. I ran a 2003 6.0 Turbo diesal that got such bad hype. I let mine go after 6 years...never had one issue.
The problem dudes were encountering, they would Bullydog or any number of chips to hop up performance. These mods exceeded the OEM specs of the OEM turbo. Too much heat was blowing up the fins. There is still no better sound from a rattling A turbo than that 6.0 Ford. And the Torque shift tranny, designed just for this motor...pure butter. With or without a load.
I like the TRD Tacoma’s circular AC/heater vents and also the display panel better.
$50k plus for a 280 hp car… yeah hard pass
2010 4Runner at 2019 Prices ... if you’re curious about the 2020-2025 versions ... watch a 2010 Review & add $30 to the price, but this time there’s 5 colors to choose from
@tillallareoneluv That nightshade...yeah it's really just accented rails and other pieces but I think most of that price is for the wheels.....
I watch your content Im only 27 . You got young guys man we gotta learn from the best lol
From what I see it appears to be a all wheel drive minivan with TRD logos all over. It make good camouflage of reality. Good grocery getter nice cup holders and cool paint. With 10 to 15 year old electronics. They make reliable running gear.
But does it float?
I'm sure it does LOL
@@everymandriver Hahaha!
My FJ Floats. Temporarily though. but I made it though a small lake with snorkel.
Hey how do you and your Wife and like your Grand Cherokee, I’ve i’ve heard so many mixed reviews on that model. Would like to know what a person I trust has to say.
I know they're gonna update the infotainment for 2020. Wish they would dump the 5spd for a 6spd at least, leave the 4.0, it's a tank.
ichor20 A750F is a great tranny imho, did you notice how many mpgs the Tacoma gained when they added a new transmission and engine? 1. Plus a whole bunch of drivetrain reliability issues
Ya not enough cup holders
There are two in the bottom of each front door as well.
10 isn’t enough? Lol
I know I'll be attacked by the Toyota fan club for saying it but I think an Acadia will the All Terrain package is a much more appealing choice so long as you can live with the more frequent servicing in the long run and the slightly reduced off road capability.
The Acadia is faster, gets better MPG, has better tech, a better ride, more comfortable seats/seating position, better on road handling, is more maneuverable, gives you a 3rd row option and on and on and on. It also looks better than the 4 Runner IMO.
To me, the fact that the Yota "runs forever" is a dubious argument. The rig is so dated now, I wonder how ancient it's going to feel in another 7 or 8 years.
Don't know how laughable that is when the Acadia is equipped with the All Terrain package's 17 in. AT wheel option, then again I live in a metropolitan area not off a dirt trail cut into the side of a mountain.
Go to a Wrangler forum and try to make an off-road parallel with the 4Runner sometime. You'll be met with similar derision.
guy proulx
Just so you know, a Honda and two Fords presently occupy the spaces in my garage so I don't really have a weiner in your peeing contest here. That said, I'll be shopping for a new SUV soon and none of Toyota's offerings seem competitive to me (a Wrangler is a better off-roader than a 4Runner, the Pilot is a better crossover than the Highlander, etc) in any other measure than reliability.
Anyway, I'm not brand loyal and never have been.
Rest assured, however, you aren't alone in your allegiance to a single car brand for life. Sometimes it seems there isn't a lone grandmother in the entire Mpls-St. Paul metro area who doesn't enjoy clogging the left lane with her RAV4 or Camry - year after year after year.
guy proulx Finally, we have something in common. I also would not elect to cross the Sahara in a Wrangler. But for that matter, I'll never be visiting the African subcontinent during my lifetime yet alone trying to cross through it in a motor vehicle.
So kind of a moot point but to each his own.
guy proulx
Fortunately the suburbs of Minneapolis aren't a barren Al Qaeda stronghold yet. Should that change, maybe I'll consider replacing one of my vehicles with a Land Cruiser.
Thanks for that useful info!
Thanks for the laughs
Test drove one, didn’t care for the ride and it seemed underpowered.
Avoid the "Toyota Tax"!
@guy proulx a face only a mother could love... All auto sold today will not leave you stranded. Besides with discounting domestics and Koreans are much better deal being up to date and not outdated like Toyota.
@guy proulx what do you drive anyways? My Dad has a 2006 Silverado HD with almost 300,000 miles...with a trailer behind it and is never in the shop.
@guy proulx most of expensive in their segments too! Avoid the "Toyota Tax"!
@guy proulx funny you Toyota fanboys make insults when compare the 1/2 ton Silverado to the Tundra with towing max is not even up to 1/4 ton Silverado max today. The 1/2 ton even tows 1/3 more than Tundra.
The 2019 Silverado 1/2 ton has the same US$29K 4x2(US$34K 4x4) on cars dot com as the Tundra and the Chevy is new, not circa 2007. The 1/4 ton is even a better price, tows more, and gets 30% better fuel economy than Toyota.
Look don’t impress. Ooooo, it says TRD. How about a longer travel suspension and a front locker so it can compete with a rubicon , Dodge Power Wagon, and others true offroad vehicles.
Etch A Sketch! 😂
Nice car, dirty and messy owner
Sorry, Dave. But I do not like Toyota's bulging or bug eyed headlights and rear taillights on most of their SUVs and trucks.
Wait he likes big knobs lol
If u want Apple car play go buy a Camry. This here is for adventuring
Thank you, this aint any street car. It is for those who have the adventurous off-road mind, but it is good that all the 2020 models, come with Apple Carplay, Android Auto and Amazon Alexa
4Runner is the real deal and I love that color, but after riding in one a few times, I was surprised for what a big boxy vehicle it is outside, how cramped the interior feels. I'm far from a big guy at 5'7", so I usually fit comfortably in all vehicles, but I was surprised how claustrophobic the interior felt up front. I had to load a water heater into the cargo area, at which point I realized how stupidly high the load lift over is. The suspension is also really oddly mushy on these things. Riding in one around the city on lumpy and rough pavement, the thing wallowed all over the place, but it does ride smooth. I was also gobsmacked that a vehicle costing in excess of $30k has an all hard plastic dashboard. Sub-$20k economy cars have nicely padded dashboards these days. Toyota does such cheap plasticky interiors and they always have. 4Runner is a great SUV if you need something off road capable. If not, it's totally overkill and there are tons of CUVs out there that perform much better for the typical A-B commute, highway trips, load cargo, ingress/egress, interior quality.
You are right on the plastic of the interior and the cheapness, but I'm 5-9 and I feel like the vehicle is pretty spacious. I love all the cargo space, in mine the rear seats are down most of the time with room for the dogs. I find the big windows and the sunroof make it feel light and airy inside. I also like that there's actual legroom for adult humans in the back seat. My previous car was a Volvo XC70, and while it had great cargo room, the rear seat legroom was near nonexistent. I would always have to put my seat up if I had people in the back, same with the front passenger. So now everybody in the car is cramped lol. No such problem in the 4Runner.
@@trailrunnah8886 Just curious, what year is your 4Runner. The one I've been in a few times was a current generation. I thought the glass area was actually pretty small. The older generations definitely have more glass area.
@@palebeachbum mine is a 13, the current gen. The windshield is small, but other than that I feel that it has good space and visibility.
Are you 5'7" and 250 lbs? Girth might make it uncomfortable, perhaps.
I'm 6'4" and have no issues, even headroom isn't problematic.
@@gregm8871 maybe interior color has something to do with it? The particular one I rode in a few times was all black. Physically, I had plenty of room, but it felt, claustrophobic. It was not a bright and airy cabin in the least.
Why do these reviewer all hold the camera in their face and show the truck behind them??????? Why can't they just show the truck and talk to us in the background??? Grow up!
test drove one recently. had to open the doors with my hands and it couldn't park itself for me.

jlefebre6001 yeah, it’s pretty old school lol

Screen surrounding is ugly...
TFL got it stuck in ice! :-)
I hate that pathfinder style rack.
Yeah, it's not the OEM rack.
Quit smacking your lips
New powertrain in it
Beautiful color but it’s driving dynamics are really bad. Unless you are serious off-roader, take it in a highway and in rush hour and test those mushy brakes and nose dive.
Apparently, having KDSS helps the on-road driving experience. You're right about rush hour driving though ha. I've had mine for just over 22 months and put over 66K miles on my 2016 Trail. I've had to change the way I drive on the highway and/or street because of the aforementioned cons.
Sounds like a rav4 or highlander would suit your wants and needs better. Obviously it’s not the best on road compared to crossovers but it’s a perfect balance between off road beast and on road comfort compared to others. I personally love how it feels on road as well as off road obviously. Just get a crossover or try driving a wrangler on road. The runner is much better as an everyday vehicle for me personally. Use it for work commute and everyday driver and can go off-road anytime I want and know I can go just about anywhere.
@@andyham6094 You may be a Neanderthal. Check yourself in mirror. 4-Runner is absolutely not a good balance. A Jeep Grand Cherokee is a good balance. A 4-Runner is good at one thing, going offroading. But hey, you may not live in a city where things zip left and right by you, see my first sentence again about where you may live.
