Best Bang for the Buck? // 2021 Toyota 4Runner Trail Edition Review

40000 fucking dollars and they shame you with black buttons that don’t button. Fuckers.

Where exactly are you driving off road?

What you're calling a TRAIL-- we call DRIVEWAYS back here-- except up and down MUCH steeper hills and we mostly use regular vehicles on them... THIS shouldn't be a test at all for that.

If it WORKS-- don't FIX IT.. so this engine is fine... no need for an "improvement" which most of the time turn out to be NOT that much of an improvement anyway!!..

I still hace my 2008 4Rubber V8 AWD 260k miles runs great. 19 mpg combines with KO2's

I have the exact same year and version but mine came with Key Fob and Obviously Push Start.

Where is the V8 ?

grunty but not quick - boy are you special ,,,,,,,,,,,,

I'm interested in the TRD OFFROAD Premium.

I don't want the basket or slide out tray. And I want the softex because it's easy to clean

And what sets you apart from all of the other you tube reviewers is your much better looking head to toe snd knowledgeable.

Great review as always! Happy with our 2014 Trail. Has the locker and crawl control like the TRD off-road. With a 3" lift, winch, and 33" Mickey Thompson tires. it goes through almost anything. Hope the gen 6 is great, looking forward to getting one.

Needs manual transmission

Made in Japan. Tacoma made in Mexico

Go for the TRD off road premium

"I just some cyclist laugh at that joke".... Yes... Yes you did..! 🤣🤣

I love you!❤

The super white looks like a storm trooper!! I got it after hurricane Ian drowned both my cars. Needless to say I love it’s off-road prowess.

Just bought a 2022 4Runner. Best SUV I've ever owned.

Anybody else accidentally stumble across this channel and fall in love with Sarah? I'd watch her review a wrecked 78' Datsun B210 rustbucket! Beautiful and a goofy/funny personality.

heated seats is the only reason i wouldnt buy it :/

sarah, u are the best bang for the buck ;3

A base TRD Offroad is a few hundred dollars more with a locker and all the crawl modes and extra settings for offraoding. I'd rather have those things for basically the same price over a cooler and roof rack. Great review and entertainment though Sarah !!

Lmao the song ready to play.

i have a 03 4runner just passed 300k miles its never leaked oil or left me stranded in the last 200k miles and i off-road regularly, we even drive 80 miles in a day on a rough beach regularly

Spend over $43K for a new 4Runner? No thank you. I'll stick with my 3rd Gen which is already paid for and spend that money on traveling. See you out on the trails! ;)

The lower trims don't have climate control, heated/ventilated seats, and other goodies. You can add most of the goodies yourself, but the climate control could be an issue. I have thought about buying a less expensive trim, but not sure if I'd want to put in all the extra work to get the other items I want. I like leather...it doesn't stain the same as cloth, retain smells the same, or get soaked like cloth. Although I'd rather have fake leather than real leather. I debated the TE, but like you said why is Toyota skimping on some of the features to help a newbie off-roader?!?!

Just bought the 2022 version and I can't stop smiling and now laughing thank you.

Fruit and robot compatibility 😂

Prepare for a 2.3 litre turbo charged 4 cylinder, in that 6th gen.

I ended up buying a 2022 TRD Off Road Premium because of your review. Love it

I love her sarcasm

Nissan should bring back The XTERRA!

It is and still remains a TACO with a SUV Body.

That 4.0 V-6 Kicks A$$! I have one in my 2006 TACO!

👍🏼

It seems that the 4Runner Family loves to Nose Dive with hard braking! My 2016 does the same thing. I thought there was something wrong, but I watched you and The Car Nut, and both of you have verified this as well as my own experiences recently. You called it a Cart Wheel and mine felt like a Submarine doing a Crash Dive!

That cooler is killer. Love the Texas humor, whatever that is. 😜 Idaho and Utah are what all the offroad bells and whistles are for. Did anyone catch the machy machy nail polish?

The Keyed Ignition Lock is a strong benefit. PushButton Start is a security problem. Trail? That looks like the typical mountain ROAD in Colorado :}

with a 5 speed transmission in 2021 and a vintage old engine. no 4runner is a bang for any buck.

Tried and True drivetrains are a huge plus in my humble opinion, remember… K.I.S.S (keep it simple stupid)

Toyota keeps its vehicles simple. ALL The Gee Wiz crap breaks and Cost $$$.. I will take a simple vehicle any day! MY 1995 Tacoma has over 479,000 miles on it. very few issues and still purrrs.. How many car payments have you made in 26 years?? LOL Screw your friends and what they think!!! KISS Keep It Simple Stupid!

No lockers? No thanks

Cost?? $$$

Lovely truck. It WILL be my next vehicle

Do u have a ig acct.

Definitely hoped for the push start darn!

4Runner 4Ever 💪🏼

Been driving since about 1974 and my 2004 SR5 with 4.7L V8 was my favorite vehicle. Didn't do trail driving but it easily handled the winters here near Boston and pulled my boat trailer with ease. That model was made in Japan. Just loved that engine. With 230k+ miles and 11 years on it I donated it still running to a charity. I enjoy your channel, Sarah.

Haha I have fun listening ur vid ... Meatball store was epic 😆
