 Ok I have read a ton of reviews on the new 2016 4Runner. I had a Jeep wrangler unlimited and was looking for something comparable for the on and off road capabilities. Test drive after test drive I came to the 2016 4Runner and loved it. The off road technology and system the ride the comfort and safety features. There is a ton of storage and all kinds of nooks to store stuff as we as the back. As far as the reviews that say it is the same 4runner in a different look this is because why fix something that is not broken? Some manufactures change things every other year and they have problems after problems. The ride quality is what it is its a truck it is not a luxury car but it is not horrible IMO it rides smooth and very nice but I am coming from a Jeep but I love the ride quality. The GPS is spot on and takes a little getting use to but if it is new to you of course it will take time. Fuel economy I have been getting roughly 20MPG combined city /hwy. The resale value of the vehicle is what had doubly sold as I have seen base models that were 2-3 years older selling for just as much as new ones with 40-50k mikes on them. I have friends that have this truck that is 20 years old has over 200k miles on it and it runs just as good as when they bought it. Reviews are only opinions if you are considering this vehicle Id recommend test driving then try to talk to some people who own them as ask for the good, bad or ugly and do your homework. I personally finally founded a keeper and when its time my wife will be buying one as well.
