First introduced as a pickup truck-based compact SUV in 1982, the Toyota 4Runner grew to become one of the world’s most popular rugged mid-size SUVs. 4Runners typically deliver highway gas mileage figures in the 20 mile per gallon (MPG) range. Some of the earliest four-cylinder trucks were the most fuel efficient of the bunch, with highway gas mileage ratings in the mid-twenties.

The 2008 4Runner is available with a 4.0 liter six or a 4.7 liter V-8. (The V-8 equipped 4WD version can be thirsty.) The 4Runner was last redesigned for the 2003 model year.

Note: the EPA tweaked their testing procedure, starting with the 2008 model year, with the end result being that the 2008 MPG estimates are now lower than previous years. As always, YMMV.
