Overview
After the 1986 redesign, the 1987 Toyota 4Runner remained primarily unchanged. The suspension remained an Independent Front Suspension with its accompanying increase in highway driving quality and decrease in off-roading power.
The powerful 22R-TE I4, a turbo-charged version of the prior 2.4-liter I4 remained an option, but was only available with an automatic transmission.

This truck just won't die. 220,000 miles (as of fall '08) and doesn't give me any crap no matter how far I drive. Does several 1000+ mile trips per year. Offroads like a dream. What she lacks in HP she makes up for with torque. I've taken this baby through places and watched full size Broncos get stuck behind me.

Only a 4-banger so the acceleration is not great on a heavier car such as this, and the suspension is pretty tight so it's a bouncy ride, but the 4-wheel drive is great and lots of body work and painting had been done on both rear fender panels to make it look great. Gets about 25 mpg on the highway. Good handling for an SUV. Has a big cargo area and the shell on the back is removable, so it's great for carting dogs around! Auto-locking hubs are nice, and the car has pretty good heat and really strong factory air. Really sturdy and 22-RE engines will run forever!

For my use , which is mostly as an off roader and commuter , it's power is enopugh . i don't tow anything bigger than a utility trailer . Off road , it's hard to beat ....the locking hubs and low gearing make it possible to go just about anywhere ! I have pulled-out at lest 2 dozen bigger, stronger, faster,fancier supposed 4x4"s . despite my constant off-roading , the on-road handling is great.Build quality speaks for itself....besides rust on a 25 yr old vehicle , i have only replaced maintenance items . The appearance is .... i would say popular ,i get comments on my beat-up old 4runner all the time , I would assume though because of it's 4x4 prowess and durability. fuel economy ...i average 7dollars per hour off road .This is a fun vehicle to own , the top comes off , it seats 5 , and can go allmost anywhere .
