We currently own a 5th gen 4Runner and a 2nd gen Tacoma. The fit & finish on the 4R is considerably better than the Taco, and I’m certain it would be more reliable over its life. That said, the Tacoma has almost 200k miles on it and doesn’t drink a drop of oil or coolant, so both easily exceed many/most other trucks sold today.
