They don't make them like they used to...but in the case of the 4Runner, they still do!
Besides a Porsche, a 4Runner has always been on my bucket list of vehicles to own. And with Porsche prices crazy this year, I raided my fund to buy this for my wife, who has been stuck with minivans for over 10 years. She loves it!
What can I say about the 4Runner so far?
- While dimentionally shorter and narrower than the Odyssey, it feels so much substantial.
- Like driving a tank
- Perfect size, not too big, but big enough, plus no 3rd row makes it extremely roomy behind the rear seats
- 2021 model is the goldilocks edition, in my opinion: all the old school goodness, but with some modern (for a 4 runner) upgrades: LEDs, Toyota sense, push start and remote entry
- Encourages slow and easy cruising - just my style!
The deal- Emailed the salesman that sold me the 2007 Camry back in the day. He's still there at Ken Shaw (Halder P.)
- After two messages we settled on a price, he took a $1000 deposit and ordered the car...not something they stock lol
- Very easy process, highly recommend
- Total price including Ontario tax:
$57,213.82If you're interested in a deep dive on the 4Runner and what makes this such a unique SUV I would recommend these series of videos done by a Toyota mechanic:
