1986 Toyota 4Runner review from North America
"Great truck that won't die"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Blown piston ring.
General comments?
Underpowered and a bit of rust, but this truck has been unbelievably reliable. Other than routine maintenance I just had a piston ring break once. It's getting near the end of it's life, which has been twice as long as most trucks so I'm looking for a newer model 4Runner. I only paid $3800 for it and it ran great for over 10 years. I couldn't have asked for a better truck.
