4Runner, stellar, bullet-proof. V8 model as well as V6 produced from 2003 thru 2009. I have had both the V6 and V8. Difference in mileage is only 1 to 1.5 mpg, so I recommend the 4.7L V8, has 7000 to 7300 lb towing capacity (depending if 2wd or 4wd). V8 model also has OEM true frame hitch. V6 model OEM hitch is attached to the rear crossmember and rated towing capacity is 5000 lbs.
