"Good car for cheap gas time"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

There are oil leaks through the engine (~ 1 qt per month) and from trans.

Electrical problems - sometimes it does not start, now electricity. Mechanic told about battery, but it connected with alarm system. After 2-5 minutes it starts without any problems.

The steering made a screeching noise when turned to it's maximum. It was connected with iddler arm, ball joints, etc. After idler arm replacement problem was fixed.

General comments?

I like this car, it runs great and very reliable for 190000 mileage.

Only one problem - the gas mileage is rather bad, about 13 mpg. It's too expensive...

This review seems to be erroneously labeled. A 2007 4Runner should not have over 100000 miles, and the 3.0L V6 the review states he has hasn't been in a 4Runner for many years.

This is obviously a very old vehicle that is reviewed and not a 2007.

I think the same. I own a 6 cyl 2007. Rides smooth, good suspension and I get 22 mpg in city 26 on highway. It has a computer that indicates how many MPG it's doing. Pretty good SUV. You won't get that in any 4.0 engine... other than Toyota 4Runner.
