 2010 Toyota 4Runner

For the second year in a row the Toyota 4Runner was able to show that it is more than just a good-looking, rugged, vehicle by winning Vincentric’s Best Value in America award. The winning formula for 2010 was low fuel costs plus low maintenance costs plus low depreciation costs, resulting in cost of ownership that was over 10% lower than expected and a wide-margin of victory over the runner-up Nissan Pathfinder.
