Used 2019 Toyota 4Runner for Sale nearCincinnati, OH

How much does the 2019 Toyota 4Runner cost?

Prices have softened 3.01% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 1,978 listings available, which gives you a solid amount of inventory to compare.

If you find a listing below $30,384.80, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2019 Toyota 4Runner a good car?

Yes — the 2019 Toyota 4Runner earns a 4.81/5 user rating, and its expert rating is 7.17/10. The standout strength is Performance at 9/10.

Owners consistently praise its reliability, smooth ride, and spacious interior, and they also highlight its off-road capability and comfort. The main trade-offs are outdated technology and poor fuel economy, while the overview makes clear that this SUV is best suited to you if you value durability, space, and genuine off-road ability over modern convenience features. Even so, 27.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals, so there is still room to shop selectively.

Is the 2019 Toyota 4Runner reliable?

Owners rate it 4.81/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

User feedback points to reliability, trouble-free ownership, and a vehicle you can count on over the long term. The expert drive notes reinforce that sense of dependability by emphasizing proven, older drivetrain components that work together as a durable package. The cost-effectiveness notes also point to a helpful ownership perk: the first scheduled maintenance visit is on the house.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that age-related wear can show up in a vehicle built around older technology and hardware, so condition matters a lot.

What should I look for when buying a used 2019 Toyota 4Runner?

At 64.8% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the truck has seen trail use or heavy family-duty miles. Focus on overall condition, signs of off-road wear, and whether the equipment level matches what you want to live with every day. Because this model leans hard into capability, you want to make sure the previous owner’s use aligns with your expectations.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The SR5 is fairly bare bones, while the SR5 Premium adds heated side mirrors with integrated turn signals, heated front seats, SofTex upholstery, a power front passenger seat, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror, and Entune Premium Audio with Navigation. That makes the SR5 Premium the best-value choice if you want the most useful comfort and convenience upgrades without jumping into the more specialized trims.
• Powertrain: You get a 4.0-liter V6 with 270 horsepower and 278 pound-feet of torque, paired with a 5-speed automatic and available 4WD with low-range. The setup is proven and built for durability, but it is also old-school and not especially efficient.
• Safety package: The 4Runner comes with a full array of airbags, traction control, and a reversing camera, but advanced driver-assistance features are not standard.
• Infotainment: The 4Runner does not offer Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. The SR5 Premium adds Entune Premium Audio with Navigation, and the system is basic rather than cutting-edge.
• Fuel efficiency: 4WD versions return 17 mpg city, 20 highway, and 18 combined, while RWD versions do 17/21/18.

Which 2019 Toyota 4Runner trim should I buy?

The 2019 Toyota 4Runner is offered in 6 trim levels: SR5, SR5 Premium, TRD Off-Road, TRD Off-Road Premium, Limited, and TRD Pro.

Here's the short version:

• SR5: This is the entry point, and it gives you the core 4Runner formula with 17-inch alloy wheels, skid plates, the power rear window, cloth upholstery, Bluetooth, and a rear cargo-area power outlet. It makes sense if you want the least expensive way into the model, but it is pretty sparse.
• SR5 Premium: This is the best-value trim because it adds heated side mirrors, heated front seats, SofTex upholstery, a power front passenger seat, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror, and navigation. If you want a more livable daily driver without paying for off-road hardware you may not use, this is the trim to target.
• TRD Off-Road: This trim is for you if trail hardware matters more than comfort. It adds a locking rear differential, Multi-Terrain Select, crawl control, TRD badging, and a TRD shift knob, but it gives up some of the nicer cabin content.
• TRD Off-Road Premium: This is the pick if you want the off-road gear and the comfort upgrades together. It brings back the Premium trim’s conveniences and adds a power moonroof, making it the most balanced choice for buyers who actually plan to use the 4Runner’s capability.
• Limited: This trim shifts the 4Runner toward curb appeal with 20-inch wheels, chrome accents, real leather, heated and cooled front seats, and dual-zone automatic climate control. It suits you if you care more about comfort and appearance than trail focus.
• TRD Pro: This is the most specialized version, with a unique grille, roof rack, fog lights, all-terrain tires, upgraded Fox Racing shocks, TRD-tuned front springs, and a thicker front skid plate. It is the one to buy if you want the most off-road-focused factory setup.

The safety content notes that advanced driver-assistance features are not standard, so you should not expect a modern suite of driver aids on any trim.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2019 Toyota 4Runner?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop with some leverage if you are patient.

• Deal availability: 27.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,978 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 3.01% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 64.8% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $30,384.80, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2019 Toyota 4Runner's resale value?

The current average of $32,113 sits slightly below last year's $33,110.

That softer pricing suggests the market has eased a bit, which can help you buy more carefully now. For a future seller, the current trend means you should expect resale value to depend heavily on condition, mileage, and trim desirability rather than on broad market momentum alone. Well-kept examples with the right equipment should still draw attention, but rough or heavily used trucks may need sharper pricing to move.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.81/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2019 Toyota 4Runner safe?

It earns four-star ratings overall from NHTSA, with three-star ratings in rollover testing.

It earns a 6/10 safety score from our experts.

The 4Runner comes with a full array of airbags, traction control, and a reversing camera, but that is essentially the extent of its standard safety equipment. You do not get modern driver-assistance features here, so the safety package feels dated compared with newer SUVs. That lack of advanced safety tech is the main caveat to keep in mind if safety features are a priority for you.

Should I buy a 2019 Toyota 4Runner or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2019 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2019 if:

• 27.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 64.8% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 3.01% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.81/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It keeps the 4Runner’s rugged, off-road-first character while still working as a practical four-door SUV.

Consider the 2020 if:

• At $35,878, the 2020 costs more than the current year's $32,113 average.
• It adds standard advanced safety features.

The bottom line: If you want the lower price and are comfortable with the 2019’s older tech and safety setup, this year is the better value play. If you are willing to spend more for standard advanced safety features, the 2020 is the cleaner choice. For price-sensitive buyers, the 2019 remains the smarter buy as long as you verify history and condition carefully.
