Do 4runners do well with towing boats? Question for the people who tow boats and trailers with them

Update: Picked up the TRD Pro 4Runner in Army Green. Thank you all for the info/insights Had to look that color up as I have t seen any of those on the road. That’s a sharp looking vehicle!
Team wolfs I had to perform. It took a minute to get it all in my mouth and another five to swallow it all.

They have a 5000lb towing capacity
They will squat some, but you’re fine towing up to a 18-19 foot aluminum.

Downside to the 4Runner to me is overall cost. Toyota Motor Corp is proud of 'em. They do hold their value pretty darn well, though. Truth...as do most Toyotas.

We have the highlander, if wifey needed 4 wheel drive she would have a 4 runner
call it what you will...he is not definitely not anywhere near the top of the list for QB's that I would choose needing a FG or touchdown drive late in the game.

I had a 2000 that I drove until 2015 - 313,000 miles. Was starting to have some issues. Great vehicle, but i didn't like the looks of the new ones, so i went with a Subaru Outback. Very happy with it.

My opinion of the Toyota 4Runners in general:
1. Cost: Expensive but hold value well so that's a wash.
2. Engine: Not all that powerful, not that great of mileage.
3. Very reliable.
4. Conservative interiors. Not flashy or sexy. That could be good or bad. Just an observation.
Close friend of mine has an older 4Runner with 300k+ miles (it has needed typical maintenance including some things most people normally don't run into, but most people don't put 300k on their vehicles). Mother in law drove one past 200k and replaced it with another 4Runner.
If it fits your budget I see no reason not to check them out.

So, if you get tired of buying vehicles.
Buy a Toyota.

My wife has had a couple over the last 10 years. All were limited 4wd models. Best truck she ever owned. Neither one ever went back to dealer for repair. Very trouble free. Rides well for a truck based SUV. No complaints and will buy another. I do wish they would offer a power back lift gate. I have a 2017 Highlander Limited and it has a power lift gate, I don't understand why the 4Runner doesn't.
