The sixth 4Runner keeps the roll-down rear window; engineers saved it by going over every part of the mechanism to cut weight.

This 4Runner is built entirely in Japan — yet it's left-hand-drive only, so Toyota never sold it in Japan itself or any other right-hand-drive market.

A 2007 IIHS report found 13 deaths per million registered vehicle years for the 2003-04 4Runner; only the Astro, G35 and BMW 7 Series did better.

The five-speed manual was dropped from this 4Runner for 2000, the last time any 4Runner was offered with a manual.

Two-door second-generation 4Runners are extremely rare, and cost more than the four-doors because the chicken tax on imported light trucks hit them.

Early 4Runners were imported to the US with no rear seats at all, so customs would classify them as a truck and charge a lower duty.
