2023 Toyota 4Runner Review
The 4Runner’s been around for 40 years?! Time flies when you’re having fun and that’s exactly the 4Runner’s objective: an off-road party machine for adventuresome types. I didn’t take the wheel of my first one until 1998 but I’ve driven a bunch of them since and it’s amazing to see how little they’ve changed over that time span. Beloved by analog types skeptical of modern technology, the 4Runner is still selling strong even though the current generation debuted 13 long years ago. So, with over 4 million sold it’s time for a party – a 40th anniversary bash with a retro theme.PRODUCT CYCLE LONGER THAN A CVS RECEIPT
Toyota’s notoriously long product cadence regarding its 4X4s has produced a quartet of trucks with miserable gas mileage, underpowered engines and time capsule technology, but I can’t fault it; why redesign them when they’ve long since been amortized and customers keep signing? But change is upon us. The Tundra and Sequoia are all-new, the next generation Tacoma should arrive next year and bringing up the rear will be the 4Runner in 2024. Feeling a bit nostalgic, Toyota has created this special edition 4Runner before the changeover and it’s wearing a vintage wardrobe. Remember drooling over Marty McFly’s Toyota Truck in Back to the Future? This 4Runner is giving off similar vibes which I’m totally here for and these yellow/orange/red body graphics take me back to 1983 and beyond; the spark has been reignited. Bronze-colored wheels cap off the heritage styling. At this point in its geriatric lifecycle, I wouldn’t normally give the 4Runner a second look but this one? Heck, yeah.
40TH ANNIVERSARY TOUCHES
A ruby is the traditional 40th anniversary gift and indeed Toyota offers this one in Barcelona Red – one of three available colors – along with Ice Cap (white) and this sexy Midnight Black. Based upon the SR5 Premium grade equipped with part-time 4-wheel drive, MSRP is $47,805 – all features are standard. A smattering of understated 40th anniversary touches are found here and there, inside and out, including an emblem indicating its limited nature attached to the dash– 1 of 4,040 Toyota plans to build. There’s an anniversary logo embossed onto the front headrests, specific floormats and bronze-colored accent stitching for the faux leather seats and other surfaces.
LET’S GO CAMPING
Lost in yesteryear, I’ve been acting as if there’s a camping trip Friday night with Jennifer Parker and this 4Runner is what we’re driving. It’s the perfect vehicle for the job: tall, tough and sizable. With the rear seats folded flat there’re 90 cubic feet of voluminous hauling space to be used for things like sleeping bags, bikes, and skis; there’s certainly no lack of cargo room. And of course, there’s this Toyota special: a power-operated tailgate window. So, throw a kayak in here if you want; it’s all good with the 4Runner.
THE 5-SPEED AUTOMATIC STILL EXISTs
The 4Runner’s mechanical bits are a step back in time: a 5-speed automatic transmission, dial-type 4-wheel drive, a big ol’ naturally-aspirated V6. Though my automotive tastes are quite progressive, I’m really digging this pre-digital dalliance. Combined with its throwback paint scheme and 40th Anniversary treatment this 4Runner feels fashionable as opposed to frumpy. Surprisingly, the ride quality is stellar – very soft and comfortable - and the cabin is as quiet as a Lexus. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it, they say, and the 4Runner has got that down pat.
SURPRISINGLY REFINED ON-ROAD
The 4.0-liter V6 wheezes its way through the 5 gears at a leisurely pace making its 270 horsepower and 278 pound-feet of torque seem anemic. The 4Runner is the posterchild for why 10-speed transmissions aren’t superfluous. On the other hand, this sort of deliberate, easily modulated throttle response is perfect for off-roading. Located on the overhead console is the switchgear for low-speed traction control called A-TRAC and Toyota’s infamously noisy hill decent control. Down below on the center console is the large knob for shifting the transfer case from rear-wheel drive to 4-wheel drive with additional low-speed gearing for when conditions get serious. And it’s really just as simple as that – no trick suspension or fancy terrain settings. The KISS principal is in full effect. You know what else hasn’t changed? The gas mileage. From 1983 to today the 4Runner still nets 17 MPG in combined driving.
A BIT AGED BUT NOT SPARSE
However, that’s not to say the 4Runner is devoid of modern accoutrements. The small touchscreen infotainment system integrates Apple CarPlay and Android Auto - though with a wired connection, there’s a Wi-Fi hotspot, satellite radio, 3 USB ports, adaptive cruise control with lane keeping, rear cross traffic alert and heated front seats. The cabin is actually an unexpected delight fortified by the 4Runner’s refined on-road manners, an uncanny quietness and an agreeable simplicity to its layout. Yes; it would be nice to have a height-adjustable passenger seat, LED ambient lighting, a power tailgate, and automatic headlights for sure - I keep forgetting to turn these off. But all in all, this 40th Anniversary Edition doesn’t feel sparse, just a bit aged. As for the rear seats, they sit high, theater style and don’t articulate so the roof is designed with a bump out to accommodate taller passengers.
THE OFF-ROAD GOODS…MINUS TIRES
With body-on-frame construction, a rigid rear axle, 9.6” of ground clearance, and a 33-degree approach angle, the 4Runner embodies a time when just about all SUVs were built like trucks. And while off-roading is the name of the game, these 17” all-season Bridgestone Dueler tires deliver middling off-road performance but they do contribute to the 4Runner’s exceptional ride comfort and hushed cabin. They’re also constructed to be good in the snow.
GET ‘EM WHILE THEY LAST
Toyota stocks 8 4Runner trims – the 40th Anniversary Special Edition ranks number 6 in terms of price with only the Limited and TRD Pro above it. It’s rumored the next generation model will be a hybrid. So, if you’re nostalgic about such things now is the time to grab a piece of SUV history.
