I have a 2020 TRDP (also in AG) and I really haven't had any issues with auto high beams. I too wish it had some extra power. Although I didn't buy it to take to the track. I had a Chevrolet Tahoe before the 4runner, and do miss the space, but love the quality of the 4runner. Tahoe always had problems. Door actuators going out, back window wouldn't pop open, etc. 4runner is solid.
Good video. I have a 2015 Inferno. I was on the front cover of the Feb 2016 Toyota Today magazine with it. I never thought about space inside being inadequate. Everything else is right on. My sliders are from White Knuckle Off Road and I had them built with no angle. It's my garage queen though (16K miles). My FJ is my daily car. Still like Inferno best. Voodoo Blue would be next.
On your #1 gripe...had a 2019 Limited and that was truly gutless. Test drove a 2020 TRD Pro and I am going with one in white. The cat back is more than a placebo effect in my mind...gives a few more pound feet of torque in the lower end which I like as I have a 2009 Tacoma Dbl Cab with cat back and love both the extra little bit of power and nice throaty note to the exhaust as well. Just my opinion here though...everybody has their own opinion or perception about the cat back etc... Great video! Thanks for posting....getting ready to negotiate on the TRD Pro....like the softer suspension as I have two ruptured discs in my lower back and the Limited was a really harsh ride for me and the Limited leather seats were just not as comfortable as the TRD Pro. Hope you get many years of service and reliability from yours!
If I owned a 4runner my no 1 gripe with it would be fuel economy !!! ☺️ I ride in a maxima and fuel economy is not the best but at least I get the power and the speed.
The problem (Your #1) is not power, it's the way the 4 runner is tuned. The stock 4Runner (Regardless of trim) is tuned to save gas and since this vehicle is awfully inefficient, Toyota consciously tunes it to save gas. That makes it lackluster to say the least. However, there are some inexpensive aftermarket tuners (Such as the "Sprint booster" that cost under $300) that can change all that. It makes a huge difference.
2015 Jeep Overland V8. More powerful, better fuel economy, arguably more stylish, all the bells and whistles, more comfortable, awesome headlights and a big heaping pile of TuRD. (See what I did there?). Yes, I grew bored of Toyota's bland styling and became complacent to the dependability I had known for 20 years. Bought the Jeep thinking "all manufactures are getting more dependable". Well, 2 weeks in I started having issues. Would not shift in reverse, would get stuck in reverse (my favorite), check engine caused by the "after market speaker I (never) installed (a speaker caused a check engine light?). Interior panels popping off, breaking the clips which they tried to make me pay again per the speaker I never installed. AC blowing cold when set below 75 regardless of ambient temp and heat when set above, again regardless of ambient temp. Groaning noises when pulling my boat. Popping noises they told us were just water bottles even though no water bottles were in there. Heck, car washes would even push it through because they were afraid of the unintended acceleration issues... In the shop 2 months of 6. 6 months after I purchased the Jeep, I bit the bullet and traded it in because even if I could sell it, I did not want to pass it directly to someone else. I lost my @$$ on it given the value I had to eat, yet I oddly felt happy if not just relieved to get rid of the biggest pile of junk I have ever owned and drove out in a brand new 4Runner. Never will I take Toyota for granted. All these people can complain about it being dated or older technology, but one thing I can count on is that I can beat the heck out of this thing and it will get me and my family home. Shoot, I was worried I would not even be able to get the Jeep out of the garage... So, I could care less when people snicker, or claim Toyota is outdated. But I will agree they need to do something with the brightness and temperature of these lights.
BPRescue Thank you for sharing your experience... I agree that there are “cooler” rigs out there that I think I’d rather have. Such as the track hawk... BUT I always have to remind myself of the amazing reliability record of Toyotas. I love these rigs and I especially appreciate the piece of mind that comes with driving them! =] welcome back to Team Toyota!
@@UntamedMotors Guys remember in addition to reliability...ya gotta think of a vehicle in terms of life cycle cost....acquisition cost, maintenance cost, and disposal cost or resale value. Toyota has its shortcomings indeed but in terms of life cycle cost...it's the best manufacturer bar none. Sadly the Jeep experiences show that...also Dodge...trucks look great by they depreciate by around 50% in 3 years time and the maintenance cost is nuts!
That was only three gripes! Clickbait! I want the missing two NOW! LOL... Informative video man. I have only one gripe about my rig and that is that Toyota never let me know that if I waited a few months they would come in BadAss Green.
Same here. I was gonna trade in my 17 limited for an army green but then I realized I would lose $23K if I did that and mine is paid off and it has an aftermarket suspension kit ,so I decided not to.
This is the best all round Reliable all category Vehicle you can buy. This 4-Runner has lots of power for what it was designed. Very smooth ride. The most important, VERY rarely needs to be taken to the dealer for problems. I have owned 5 of them over the last 14 years.
@@endocryNever had a problem with any of them. I like that new car smell and trade-in value is high before three years is up. I have a 2020 Army green coming, when it comes ???????.
@@briananderson6142 my point is your original comment proves virtually nothing regarding their reliability because you're keeping them less than 3 years. Most vehicles will have little or no problems within 3 years.
Great video, this was helpful for new buyers like me. Don't mind the old heads with the downvotes, this is still a useful video for potential buyers, as is your Top 5 Likes about it.
That whole truck should be LED that truck is 50,000 !!!!! People by that truck no matter what , so they don’t have to do anything! It’s like Harley Davidson if they horsepower away from their bikes they STILL! Would sell a lot of bike!!!
Your Top 5 dislikes.. honestly, just looking at the surroundings, you would have been better off with a SR5 or no 4runner at all. The lack of power, yeah, I can relate with somewhat, but my 19' is enough until I wanna tow something large. I believe that a highlander or a sequoia would have benefited you more tho. Nice 4runner, and keep in mind you have 1 of the nicest colors of all.
Based on these 5 gripes, sounds like you should have gotten a Tundra (or Sequoia) TRD Pro, which would have addressed your LED, Space, and power gripes. The "changes from older MY" is subjective and sounds like your auto high beams might be defective because I've a Lexus (GSF) and Toyota (Tundra TRD PRO) that works flawlessly.
Well I already have a truck with plenty of cabin space... so I didn't give much attention to the Tundra. The Sequoia looks too outdated for my taste. Sure it has the room but it doesn't look good on the outside, nor does it carry the same resale reputation the 4runner does. Specifically speaking, the lack of fender flares and 2003 taillights bother me on the Sequoia.
It's a terrible rack as far as functionality. It's too high for lots of garages, only holds 100 lbs, has no actual tie-down points, and doesn't seem very durable.
Power would be my number 1 complaint too but I didnt buy it for the power or fuel economy that's for sure. How are you liking the stereo? Hoping it's much improved over my 18 pro.
Yeah... I try not to pay any attention to the 16-18 mpg, hah. A lot of people still complain about the terrible stereo system. Personally, i think it's great... haha. But, I'm no audio buff. =]
@@UntamedMotors has to be an improvement over mine with no sub. Streaming music in mine sounds decent compared to just radio. Got a tire replaced on mine today and popped in from service to talk to my salesman. Said he would give me an update once they have an ETA
first , where do you live.Love the open space. Now when you posting some mpg, some off road use..? But dam don't I want one, but I hear they EAT fuel. ? Humm.....and rev at 70mph. Guess they need an 8 speed & a 3.5v6 , Rumor has it a smaller v6 TURBO engines next. Same for TUNDRA .
Jim Cash. Good ole Wyoming! An 8 speed would be nice. Not sure how I feel about a turbo v6 though... doesn’t sound as reliable as the standard 4.0 naturally aspirated v6. The MPG is absolutely garbage though, you’re right.
There are five of us in the family and we considered a 4Runner until my wife and I sat in the backseat. Nope. No room. I also can’t understand why Toyota doesn’t redesign that dip in the ceiling where the sunroof backs into. There is no way my three kids could comfortably fit in that backseat. If you need the room go with a sequoia.
Cid Lopez Yep, not ideal for a family. ...and yeah a lot more space in the sequoia. But it just looks extremely dated though... I just can’t get onboard with those 2003 sequoia tail lights. =\
Untamed Motors I hear ya. I got the pro. I couldn’t stomach the look of the limited sequoia. Kind of looked like a mom mobile. But the pro’s updates really transform the look.
There is enough power. what you need is a power map. Plug and play $200. And it will feel very punchy. I'm going to do It on mine. Btw your great offroad tires don't help the situation on road.
@@UntamedMotors that is super awesome. But one guy said it's $5k (for the 100bhp) That is a lot of money, but if you are willing to spend it...I'm sure you will not be sorry! You cant have too many horses..(-;
C man that might be true. But I believe that Unnamed motors said there is one offered by Toyota??!! I didn't read about it. So maybe that is a better option.
Jeremy Stock I haven’t looked into that, no. Does it make a big difference? I thought about adding a Magnuson supercharger though... I think that’d definitely give it the zip I think it should have from factory...
My biggest gripe with my 2015 4Runner is the space/comfort. I’m 6’5” so it’s way cramped. My kids have turned into tall teenagers so they a,re cramped up in the back seat.
I don’t but if my pants cost $45k I may keep them too long if I grew. Biggest problem is my oldest son was 11 when we bought our 2015 and now that he’s over 6’ tall So i have to move my seat up so he can fit. He’ll be driving next year so it won’t matter for long.
I think your list will fade when you've put 100K on it and you have not had to do anything but change the fluids, filters, and tires, and it still drives like the day you bought it. That's my experience.
Agree with the lag in the auto high beams. I have a 2020 Venture model and the lag of the high beams makes me not use the auto mode. And the fact that they randomly resort to the low beams for no reason and then when I turn the high beams on manually, the lag is just strange. Not too sure if it is something to look at on warranty, but may have to have it checked out.
I too have a 2020 4runner in AG, as well as 2017 Ford Raptor in Ruby Red. I can say I have the EXACT same issue your having with my Automatic High Beams. They lag with on coming traffic badly. I too am getting flashed constantly because they don't turn off when they should. I saw another person comment and say his did not lag so either me and you got a bad sensor or we are just use to the superior setup on the Raptor
@@UntamedMotors Yes I do. Although I am going to sell it soon. Someone in the family wants to buy it from me and I'm a little tired of the monthly payment hahaha. I have enjoyed driving it for the last few years though. My favorite vehicle I've ever owned that's for sure. I did add the sprint booster to my 4runner though and it greatly improved the way it drives. Just a thought for you regarding the power lag you mentioned in your video. You'll get all the power immediately instead of having to wait for it to slowly get up to speed. I definitely recommend it
Your complaints are pretty minor. Sliders? Change them. Styling? Really? Interior space seems fine for kids in the back. Otherwise get a minivan. 270 V6 is plenty. It’s a beautiful and capable rig. You can always sell it and pretty much break even but there’s no way I would sell it.
Good video. That Japanese engineering is obviously the selling point. I've never seen a vehicle that was easier to work on than the 4runner. However, the lack of headroom, outdated electronics/interior, and lack of power kept me from buying another one when I totaled mine a couple months ago. Great vehicles, but just a few things that could be so easily changed that are a dealbreaker for most adults.
Brad Doherty I’m with you... not perfect but checks all the boxes for my family at this point in time. Besides, you can’t beat the reliability and resale value =]
I’m perplexed about this video. At first you had 5 gripes for Toyota but they didn’t put the sliders on. You did. So how about 4 top dislikes instead of 5.
I have to order mine with $3k deposit from the monopoly Toyota dealer (Servco Pacific in Hawaii). They had 6 Army Green and one Black all arrive at the same time. Army Green looks awesome in person. Can’t decide between 4Runner and Tacoma. I remember having our son in a car seat with our Grand Caravan that was very roomy. I figure you got the 4Runner for the fact that it’s storage is sealed and you already have a pickup. I have access to my dad’s truck so I’m leaning more towards the 4Runner since I would want to get a bed cover (which would add to the cost). Although the price difference would allow me to get one or just go without for a while. Any thoughts as to why you went with the 4Runner would be appreciated. Mahalo (Hawaiian for thank you)
Justin Young I owned a 2017 Tacoma TRD pro prior tour getting my Raptor. They are very tight inside... I definitely recommend the 4Runner over the Taco. You can checkout my Taco vids if you want.
Still miles better then the crappy ass Taco with the 3.5 and horrid akison 6 speed. However, to make this a killer beast is if Toy would put the Prado D4D diesel from overseas. If they did that they would put jeep out of business lol.
@@UntamedMotors Especially so critical on a vehicle that has been basically the same since 2010 ...as if you did not see it coming prior to buying a 2020 ....
fully agree but most people who are paying almost 50 grand for a mid-size SUV aren't going to keep it for 20 years. Loved my 4runner but looking back I'd just buy an older one and use it as an off-road vehicle. Too many shortcomings as a daily driver once you switch to a full size vehicle.
Joe Joey True statement. I’ve come to grips with the power issue. I’ve really grown to Love this 4Runner... I don’t think I’ll own any other SUV ever again.
I’m trading my White 17 Pro in AG. I’m taking my Tyger steps off and putting them on my 2020. Pro. The Tyger steps are awesome and finish and getting in. I’m trading to get the upgrades compared to mine. My one only has a little over 12,000 miles.
Why did you buy it in the first place? This truck/suv has been around too long that there's a lot of reviews circulating around. You test drive it, assess the cargo space if it meets your needs and etc. Your gripes are so lame dude.
A legendary vehicle with few shortcomings.I’d like to see it with an 8 speed transmission,and a modest bump in HP to at least 300.
Brian I would be onboard with that.
Untamed Motors you didnt want to supercharge? Its a reliable motor anyways
sothickitssickk
No,nothing that would cause premature engine wear and require premium fuel.
I don’t get why we can’t get the same features as in the rav4..! Like heated steering wheel..

Hell yeah, I think so too... can’t beat the proven reliability of these things =]
Fucking right!
Agree with the lag in the auto high beams. I have a 2020 Venture model and the lag of the high beams makes me not use the auto mode. And the fact that they randomly resort to the low beams for no reason and then when I turn the high beams on manually, the lag is just strange. Not too sure if it is something to look at on warranty, but may have to have it checked out.
wolfeyez300 Glad to hear I’m not alone on that... it’s pretty frustrating.
I too have a 2020 4runner in AG, as well as 2017 Ford Raptor in Ruby Red. I can say I have the EXACT same issue your having with my Automatic High Beams. They lag with on coming traffic badly. I too am getting flashed constantly because they don't turn off when they should. I saw another person comment and say his did not lag so either me and you got a bad sensor or we are just use to the superior setup on the Raptor
DYAUS thank you for sharing. Glad to hear I’m not alone on it. =\ you have a Raptor too?
@@UntamedMotors Yes I do. Although I am going to sell it soon. Someone in the family wants to buy it from me and I'm a little tired of the monthly payment hahaha. I have enjoyed driving it for the last few years though. My favorite vehicle I've ever owned that's for sure. I did add the sprint booster to my 4runner though and it greatly improved the way it drives. Just a thought for you regarding the power lag you mentioned in your video. You'll get all the power immediately instead of having to wait for it to slowly get up to speed. I definitely recommend it
Nice lookin rig.
McCuck81 Thanks brother!
Your complaints are pretty minor. Sliders? Change them. Styling? Really? Interior space seems fine for kids in the back. Otherwise get a minivan. 270 V6 is plenty. It’s a beautiful and capable rig. You can always sell it and pretty much break even but there’s no way I would sell it.
Carlo Santin All true. My Likes greatly outweigh my Dislikes. Don’t worry =]
Good video. That Japanese engineering is obviously the selling point. I've never seen a vehicle that was easier to work on than the 4runner. However, the lack of headroom, outdated electronics/interior, and lack of power kept me from buying another one when I totaled mine a couple months ago. Great vehicles, but just a few things that could be so easily changed that are a dealbreaker for most adults.
Brad Doherty I’m with you... not perfect but checks all the boxes for my family at this point in time. Besides, you can’t beat the reliability and resale value =]
I’m perplexed about this video. At first you had 5 gripes for Toyota but they didn’t put the sliders on. You did. So how about 4 top dislikes instead of 5.
Dave J lol... I said self inflicted. Settle down...
any relations in platform between Tacoma and 4runner？
I have to order mine with $3k deposit from the monopoly Toyota dealer (Servco Pacific in Hawaii). They had 6 Army Green and one Black all arrive at the same time. Army Green looks awesome in person. Can’t decide between 4Runner and Tacoma. I remember having our son in a car seat with our Grand Caravan that was very roomy. I figure you got the 4Runner for the fact that it’s storage is sealed and you already have a pickup. I have access to my dad’s truck so I’m leaning more towards the 4Runner since I would want to get a bed cover (which would add to the cost). Although the price difference would allow me to get one or just go without for a while. Any thoughts as to why you went with the 4Runner would be appreciated.
Mahalo (Hawaiian for thank you)
Hey bro the army green 4Runner you talking about is mine. Lol I just pick it up today and look so damn sexy. You should get the 4Runner in my opinion.
Justin Young I owned a 2017 Tacoma TRD pro prior tour getting my Raptor. They are very tight inside... I definitely recommend the 4Runner over the Taco. You can checkout my Taco vids if you want.
Gian Dadulla Lucky you. I couldn’t believe that Servco had 6 Army Green T4R Pro’s
Try selling the rock crawlers and buy the correct ones. It would suck to stick with inconvenience for the life of the car.
Kevin I’m hoping they’ll grow on me hah. If they don’t, I definitely will.
Still miles better then the crappy ass Taco with the 3.5 and horrid akison 6 speed. However, to make this a killer beast is if Toy would put the Prado D4D diesel from overseas. If they did that they would put jeep out of business lol.
Only took 45 seconds to see why you had so many down votes
W Stewart lol every dislike video gets lots of downvotes
@@UntamedMotors Especially so critical on a vehicle that has been basically the same since 2010 ...as if you did not see it coming prior to buying a 2020 ....
@@CP-kb1du he cant help hes a moron
What dealership did you but your 4runner at?
You do t buy these for power they are not known as speed demons but they will run for 20 years
fully agree but most people who are paying almost 50 grand for a mid-size SUV aren't going to keep it for 20 years. Loved my 4runner but looking back I'd just buy an older one and use it as an off-road vehicle. Too many shortcomings as a daily driver once you switch to a full size vehicle.
Joe Joey True statement. I’ve come to grips with the power issue. I’ve really grown to Love this 4Runner... I don’t think I’ll own any other SUV ever again.
What % tint and brand of sliders did you go with?
Matt Richard 20% sides.... 5% rear.
1st and only Dislike should be the obvious (The Colour )
It definitely is a color you either LOVE or HATE... haha, no in between.
@@UntamedMotors It is a Colour that has no business on a Vehicle more like Industrial Paint for PreHistoric Bridges . Not about Love / Hate .
C Man only your opinion matters eh? Lol sorry bud, you are alone.
supercharge it?
That'd be sweet, haha
What are you, a millionaire?
Thousandonaire is more like it 👌🏻 🧐
you can gift me if you dont like it .. please
Haha, sorry brother for every dislike... I have 5 things I like about it =]
I’m trading my White 17 Pro in AG. I’m taking my Tyger steps off and putting them on my 2020. Pro. The Tyger steps are awesome and finish and getting in. I’m trading to get the upgrades compared to mine. My one only has a little over 12,000 miles.
Low miles for a '17! Congrats on the '20... you'll love it. =]
Thanks. I don’t drive it much. Getting good numbers for mine. Worth trading in. Not to happy about roof rack.
More pups
CJ Anania Haha, can do!
No leather seats available at any trim.
Ur complaining a lot of things on this 4runner then why did u buy it????????? Ohh lord!!!!!
Please rewatch video... listen to 1:00 in particular. My Likes greatly outweigh my Dislikes. Don’t worry =]
Why did you buy it in the first place? This truck/suv has been around too long that there's a lot of reviews circulating around. You test drive it, assess the cargo space if it meets your needs and etc. Your gripes are so lame dude.
l catalla Lol, please rewatch the video and pay attention to 1:00 -my Likes vastly outweigh my dislikes. Don’t worry =]
@@UntamedMotors cool!
So why did you get idiot
Small outdated interior,weak ass suspension, outdated and overrated!!!!
good car but with ugly face, Japan lack of good designer...
Aggressive grill it is a SUV RUGGED ...... you want ugly check out a G WAGON ...
