    First time 4Runner owner in a long line of Toyota ownership. I was convinced after driving my 24TRDP but watching my mother driver her 11' SR5 4Runner for 10 years and 200,000 miles, then handed off to my sister for 4 years and then sold, totaled out yet still running after hitting an elk in KY. Reliability and consistency are extremely important to me now that my children are getting to the driving age. I fell in love with a local Terra TRDP, managed to get it a $1,500 under MSRP and felt like it was a deal when other Ohio dealerships were marking 4runners up $10k over sticker. I'm 1,000 miles into ownership and preparing
