 This is probably one of the best vehicles I have ever driven.  We leased this 4Runner and really did not need 4WD, but to get what we wanted we did it.  Other than the gas mileage, which is lower than the 2014 SR5 I owned before this one, the 4Runner is a great vehicle, rides great, is great in the rain as it does not jerk when going through puddles and rides very comfortably.  The only thing I would like to see is an automatic rear lift.  The rear lift is heavy.  We downsized to a RAV4 XLE which is nice, but I miss my 4Runner!!!
