1986 Toyota 4Runner SR5 review from North America
"OH What a Feeling!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have a whoosh whoosh noise coming from the rear, We jacked it up and checked it out, and it seems to be coming from the brake drums... no biggie, I am gonna replace the drums and shoes anyway... Also had to replace the Idler arm on the front end.
General comments?
I have only had this vehicle a few months, but "oh what a feeling!" This is my first winter in the snow, and I couldn't have picked a better vehicle to start out in. I got this truck at a Junkyard, I only paid $375 for it, and this thing performs so much better than my 96 Nissan when it was new!!! I love this truck, I don't think I will be buying anything else for a long long time!!!
