1997 Toyota 4Runner Base model 2.7 liter from North America
Summary:
Extraordinary
Faults:
Dash clock doesn't work, & the cup holders are useless & in the wrong location.
Everything else works fine, although a manual antenna would be more suitable for this vehicle, & the rear hatch lock fell down inside the lift gate & is unusable.
General Comments:
At 325,000 miles, what can I say, these SUVs are basically indestructible. It will be interesting how many miles I can squeeze out of this machine. I did own a 1983 Toyota Supra that was several years old & drove it across the US and fell in love with the car, but lost it in an unfortunate accident. My daily commute with my 4Runner is 53 miles per day, so the miles keep racking up on this ole girl. I'm just hoping I can get my $1500.00 bucks out of her.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Mileage Update on 1997 4Runner; she just turned over 370,000 miles on the original engine & drivetrain! If you can locate one of these bullet proof Toyota's, buy it!
