The 2015 Toyota 4Runner is still a pretty oldschool vehicle. It may have some electronic aids and modern accouterments, but it’s still basically just body-on-frame ruggedness at a fairly affordable price.



The guys over at KBB took one out on an off-road adventure. They bit off more than they could chew, by going down a snowy hill that was obviously very difficult to climb back again. Yet even so, with some shoveling, it somehow managed to crawl back up and got them safely back.

It’s definitely not the kind of SUV for city dwellers, but for somebody who actually needs the off-road capability, then the 4Runner is a safe bet. Just make sure you fit it with suitable tires, as even the run in the video posted below would have been far less daunting with more specialized rubber.
