  • In this video, I will review my very own newly bought 1997 Toyota 4Runner SR5 V6 4X4 with a VERY RARE 5-speed manual transmission that was offered in less than 5% of these 3rd generation 4Runners. This truck is a very simple, reliable, classic and capable off-roader that is becoming more and more desirable due to it's looks and reputation. Despite not having some of the features of the newer T4Rs (Fox suspension, TRD exhaust, crawl control...), this 3rd Generation could arguably be the best generation of 4Runner ever. #toyota4runner #3rdgen4runner

    Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦
    I have 2 Toyota trucks which I’ve owned for going on almost 20 years now. The first is a 1983 long box 4x4 manual hubs , with a 20r carbureted motor and 4spd manual . It’s in great shape , was restored right before I bought it and has been garage kept and driven every other weekend. Love it!!!
    My daily is indeed a Unicorn… a 2000 4 Runner SR5 , 5spd manual, 4x4 with heated leather seats and sunroof … It’s pretty near mint as well…. I am 45 and doubt I will ever need to buy any other vehicle ever again… Simple maintenance and treated with kindness has taken me a long long way. 😎

    Just inherited one myself, 2000 Toyota 4Runner SR5 V6 4X4 with 5 speed manual. Its a little rusty but free is free. Should compliment my Landcruiser nicely!

      Nice. What year is your LC? You have 2 solid trucks now. 5speed manual on these is so RARE... #savethemanuals

    that is one rad ride! good choice in the 5spd 4Runner.They don't make cars simple like they used to, Eshan. Congrats on your 2023 order. SR5 or TRD Sport? I really like your driving camera angles too

      Thanks Ricardo for your kind comment. I couldn't agree with you more and that's why I got the 5speed T4R. Manual transmission cars are so much more exciting and engaging for me. I should get my '23 T4R TRD PRO in 2 months or less.

    I was told after I bought my 3rd runner, the rear spoiler is to help clean the window, nothing else.

      I believe its purpose was to be a wind deflector but your logic is plausible too @rem carr

    What do you think of the 2024 Terra?

      I am not a big fan of its color. Having said that, 5th gen T4R are very capable machines in the off-roading scene

    if I may ask, how much did you pay for it??

      If it's not rusted and interior plus exterior is clean and well maintained, then go for it. Make sure that timing belt has been replaced too. V6, 5speed and 4x4 are the MOST desirable ones although they did make 4-cylinder with 4x4 as well... Good luck 👍

      Just bought a 98 sr5 5 speed V6 4x4 from Washington state. Totally rust free and well maintained 1 owner rig. I paid $8000.

      Nice. The best and greatest generation of 4Runner to be ever made plus ours both have 5speed 4x4. Thanks for sharing!
