2009 Toyota 4Runner

The combination of low fuel costs and the lowest depreciation rate in its class enabled the Toyota 4Runner to be honored with Vincentric’s Best Value in America Award for 2009.  Toyota showed strength in this segment, with its FJ Cruiser coming in with a 2nd place finish that provided a Toyota one/two punch that left Nissan Xterra in 3rd and the rest of the segment off of the podium.
