1997 Toyota 4Runner SR-5 review from North America
"Bullitproof when cared for and maintained properly"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
Shocks are in need of replacement, ordered Tokicos.
General comments?
Did a baseline flush and fill of all fluids, filters, plugs etc.
Dunlop tires are awful, will change to Michelins.
2WD, with mileage consistently in the 17's with 90% city driving. Only improves to 20mpg on the hiway.
