    My very first Toyota, always owned GM products for the last 40 years.
    Greetings!

    I am going to pick up my 2022 4 Runner Limited tomorrow, I shopped around for quite awhile but finally found a green one (24K miles) and had to have it. I have been a GM guy my whole life, owned many varieties over the last 50 years or so. About 16 months ago my wife decided she had to have a Jeep Wrangler, which I like okay, but I need more space, and more comfort in my old age, hence the Limited. Has anyone got burned buying a used low mile 4 Runner? It is still under factory warranty and I have a 400 mile drive home to sort out any issues. They are super expensive and I went between the Cadillac XT6, Grand Cherokee and the 4 Runner. I don't expect to spend a whole lot of time off-road, but I will be getting some AT tires when the originals wear out. Any thoughts on this X-REAS system? Anyway, I hope to use the forum for everything I don't know about Toyota's, this will be my first. Next, can I keep up with my wife's slightly lifted Jeep off road?

    Best,
    Patrick

    Welcome Chief. I'm a fellow CT, a T brancher. Although, that was a long time ago. lol I'm still driving my first Toyota, a 2001 Tundra. The 4Runner is one of Toyota's most reliable models. This vehicle may have old technology compared to other models of the same year, but the V6 engine and 5 speed transmission have a proven history of reliability, they're bullet proof. The 4Runner is excellent, very capable off road, but honestly the Jeeps are more off road capable than the 4Runner. Unless you're rock crawling, I would guess that you can easily get anywhere your wife can.

    Welcome and congrats on the limited! I liked the feel of xreas when I've had the chance to drive some limited 4Rs.
