1991 Toyota 4Runner SR5 4dr SUV 4WD
I bought a 1991 4runner 4x4 5speed 4 cylinder brand new. It now has 265000. Thing runs great....as long as the truck is maintained and not abused it runs forever. Tranny and 4x4 setup is flawless and built like a tank. Engine was rebuilt at 220,000 (probably could have gone much further, but was gonna let my son use it and wanted him to have a very reliable rig and the truck is a horse … mechanically. The driver seat needs recovering and could use a paint refresh.....but it has been one reliable vehicle. I have never regretted buying this truck and was glad I got the 4 cylinder engine...didnt have all the bells and whistles like the 6 cylinder, but man does it just keep on running. If you can pick up a well maintained 4 cyclinder...even with high mileage, you have found a machine that can give you years of reliable service.
Update 11/02/2023 - The 4runner has about 280,000 on it now and still running strong. I use it now mostly as a camping or overland vehicle...since I have other daily drivers. I had the interior seats recovered, added roof rack solar w/inverter & battery back-up in the rear, 3 row radiator for superior cooling, upgraded with Eibach Pro-Truck springs and shocks (so no sag in the rear).for about a 2 inch lift. My opinion for this very reliable and sturdy little SUV has not changed. After all this time...no serious maintenance issues, passes smog every year and runs like a champ.

1991 Toyota 4Runner SR5 4dr SUV 4WD
I got this vehicle in 94 for $16K with
60K mi on it, it now has 178K, w/ a
small amount of rust-thru below the gas
door. Reliable except for the common
failure of this V6's head gaskets.
Warantee covers it. One Toyota "quirk"
w/the EFI fuse in the kickpanel fuse
box. Seems that the females break
contact, a quick bend out of the leads
on the fuse itself, and reinserting …
fixes it till next season change. The
only other problem that I've had is
there is a subtle leak in the
powersteering system. Just a note, a
tire change to 32x11.5x15, (fit nice on
stock SR5 wheels) the speedometer
becomes accurate. I can highly
recommend this vehicle.

1991 Toyota 4Runner SR5 4dr SUV 4WD
i bought my runner with 246k on the clock. it has the 22re with a 5 speed and 4 wheel drive. i get 22 mpg average which is great in my opinion for a 4wd suv. it fits my family very comfortably and allows us to go wherever we want very safely. its not fast but it gets the job done it now has 270,000 miles and runs like champ. i wouldn't trade it for a lot of other suv's out there.
nice, but slow

I am a chevy mechanic and yes I own a
yota. I don't like working on my own
vehicles after 50 hours of work every
week. This truck is very reliable, but
lacks power, BIG TIME!!! This 3.0 is
impossible too work on too. I think my
1987 toy pickup with 200K on it is
faster! My 85 4runner handled better,
it pulls poorly, and gets blown around
on the highway like a rag … doll. I will
probably sell and get a used tahoe or
suburban. At least if they break down
I'm not lost under the hood and They
have an ENGINE.
