We have a 91 VZE130R 4runner. It's the V6 SR5 LTD so it's got pwr windows, cruise control, auto locking hubs, etc.

The only "offroad" it's seen is pulling onto the gravel on the side of the road Embarassed Laughing .

The V6 is a little under powered but still tows pretty well. The V6's had a problem, apparently with the valves recessing into the head. We had the heads done at toyota and it cost about $2500. I only took it to toyota because I had heard of the problem with the heads and wanted to get it done properly. Turned out I knew more about the problem than the service adviser did Rolling Eyes .

If you have little kids you can fit 2 baby seats in the back but there isn't much room left.

Our car drives very nicely on the road and doesn't have the "boat" feeling of some larger 4wd's.

It is a bit heavy on fuel too but I don't think I would trade it for anything else.
