1987 Toyota 4Runner review from North America
"One tough truck!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The radiator developed a leak and had to be repaired at ~80,000 miles.
General comments?
This vehicle has been the embodiment of reliable, utilitarian transportation. It's ugly, not quick, doesn't handle well, and doesn't even have all that much space in the back. What it does is refuse to die, and work as needed day after day without fail!
Other than aforementioned radiator problem, I have had absolutely NO issues with the car for over 100,000 miles.
