1988 Toyota 4Runner SR5 review from North America

"A good quality, reliable truck"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

When I bought the vehicle the head gaskets, timing belt and water pump had just been changed and so was the clutch. The starter and alternator have since been changed. The transmission had to be rebuilt due to street racing against a done up Honda Civic. I decided to do the clutch at the same time even though it was still decent. The vehicle has had major body work which included a color change. I have replaced the clutch master cylinder a couple of times. Everything else has been regular maintenance.

General comments?

This vehicle has been extremely reliable, I have never been left stranded, yet. The truck has gone on a thirty-six hour drive from just north of the U.S. Canada border to the U.S. Mexico border, stopping only for gas. The driver seat is worn and becoming uncomfortable. It still drives like new. I`m currently looking for a newer one for my wife.
