That model was made in Japan. Just loved that engine. With 230k+ miles and 11 years on it I donated it still running to a charity. I enjoy your channel, Sarah.

I passed several abandened trucks and cars on the road, but I had no problems at all. Best vehicle I have ever owned.

Nice that you mentioned about respecting the vehicles you test because they're not yours (sad fact that it needs to be said, but that's just my opinion). Some people just don't seem to understand this when they criticize the way you put these vehicles through their paces for a review. That's why I love when you do it, Sarah. You're honest, to the point (with bonus bits of personality and sarcasm), and you give the vehicles respect by not torturing them into submission (unless it's your own, of course ;) ).

*Sarah,* We all know that the 4Runner is based on the Hilux pickup truck with a fiberglass camper shell over the shortbed. After nearly a decade of fiberglass tops, I learned during Toyota sales training, Toyota decided that for the 2nd generation they would simply stretch the metal skin all the way back. Here's the fun part. While in the designed process the new 4X4 SUV was named...wait for it... the "Fourskin". That is, until someone with a better English vocabulary stepped in and explained why that name might be problematic. That's right folks. We might all have been driving in or near a *"Toyota Fourskin".* That gives a whole new angle on the slogan _"Oh, What a feeling!"_ Toyota!

I love my TRD Off Road and it's my second 4Runner. I put over 100,000 miles on the first one with zero problems and traded it in for almost 50% of what I paid for it. I don't take it on any crazy trails but I do lots of road trips and go places with tons of dirt roads. It's perfect and the fact that it stays kind of old school with the drivetrain and tech is a big plus for me.

Own a 2004 4wd Sport. 270,000 miles on it. Just keeps on going! Plan on keeping it for a long time! No major mechanical problems ever. Any maintenance for the DIYs you can usually find on KZbin or forums. Lots and lots of mods! BTW, the 4.0L engine was first seen on the 4Runners in 2003. So, it is 18 years old.

Thank you for this review. I have been waiting for the TRAIL EDITION for some time now. They seem to magically disappear from the dealership on arrival. For all of the whiney complaints about creature comforts and upgrades like engine stop/start, lockers, heated seats and steering wheel, etc. Sarah said at the beginning that this is a basic trail truck. For those wanting to have bragging rights to frills that are rarely if ever used, this model is NOT for you. You can spend the extra $3000 to $8000 and get the Off-Road Premium, the Venture, and TRD PRO. This is a perfect vehicle for the weekend camper or off-roader since it comes with AT tires, roof rails and cargo basket, cooler (too big), and the sliding cargo tray (eliminates the elevation and space between the cargo area and the folded passenger seats) that makes sleeping in the back level. Nothing to add. Ready to hit the trails right out of the box. Problem is finding one, since only 4000 will be sent to the U.S.

For me, only a couple issues with this vehicle: 1) No manual transmission 2) $40K starting price for this "cheap" version. It seems crazy that money doesn't at least get you heated seats, though with them being cloth they wouldn't be real cold in the Winter (unless you live in Alaska or Siberia 😁). Those big HVAC knobs would be great for the North since you can work them with heavy gloves on. I'm definitely ok with the relative lack of "high tech", since that stuff's just going to break if you actually take this out on a trail anyway. And it's great that they still have that bullet-proof V6, AND you still twist a key to start it! Great review, though being in New England I take exception to 40F being "freezing cold" 😜

I actually got my 2020 SR5 in part because of Sarah's review. Granted, her review was TRD Pro in the review, but as you can see in the 2021 Trail the SR5-based 4Runner is still great. Thanks, Sarah! I like the fact that it's OLD SCHOOL. Old engine, old transmission, 300,000 miles and it's barely broken in. Chunky dials for your air controls, too. I bought my 2020 when I was 34, and as long as I'm able to get gas for it, I wonder if it's going to outlive me. It'll be close, but it just might do it. One day I will add a rear locker to my SR5. Probably after the warranty expires.

Yeah, for the 4runner and tacoma, the lowest model is usually the best model if you're planning to mod it. If you're going long travel, upgraded rear axle, etc, the TRD-Pro model is the worst value.

I just rented the TRD 4Runner and drove it to Colorado, over 1000 miles. It works perfect in that climate, but the seat is uncomfortable as all get out. It really needs a wiper on the rear window. In Colorado that was a constant pain in the ass having to get out and claw an the rear window every 30minutes. It would be more practical to have a washer /wiper than the role down window. ** I found the wiper after reading the comments below. Wish I had know !

I was getting out and cleaning the window with paper towels constantly. I guess I know now, and I have to return the 4Runner tomorrow.🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

I always have to chuckle when you talk about how cold it is in your shop. I changed the oil in my 2 daughters cars outside in 20° temps about 2 week ago. And we got about a foot of snow last weekend. 🤣

Great review as always! Happy with our 2014 Trail. Has the locker and crawl control like the TRD off-road. With a 3" lift, winch, and 33" Mickey Thompson tires. it goes through almost anything. Hope the gen 6 is great, looking forward to getting one.

I believe this will satisfy a market of enthusiast off-roaders like myself. When building an off-road rig, you don't want to buy the "best" off-the-shelf vehicle. You are going to put a solid axle on it, steel bumper and wheels, a wench rated specifically for your needs. Why pay for the premium trim when you are going to pull half of it off anyways? There is such a large aftermarket following for Toyota and Jeeps that you are going to wire your own auxiliary switches in those blank switches. Those blanks, at least for me and some of my off-road friends, are "potential" switches for whatever we need (especially the overlanders) and helps keep the cabin clean. I personally think that this is not just a great entry rig, but also the preferred platform to get started on a newer build. If you are are swapping out your axles, lifting, putting tires over 35", this is a better rig than the TRD Pro. And it is capable enough to have fun on the weekends in-between the upgrade projects. TRD models are probably better options if you want the capability but want to stay stock. I think in the next 6 months, you'll see more of these off-roading (built rigs) than the TRD models. Just my point of view.

So I bought one, mine came with the TRD skid plate, predator step bar and the Nitto Grappler tires. In fact when I saw it on-line I thought it was either a TRD Off-Road or a Venture. It wasn't until I got the price from the dealer I realized it was the Trail because I got it for $38K.

I've got a 2007 Hilux with the same engine, it really is one of Toyota's best efforts. There's a company over here that develops supercharger kits for it, they have a test mule with more than 500hp that has been running without issue for over ten years. Unfortunately Toyota Australia dropped the engine in 2017, because everyone wants common fail diesels
