Another benefit would be historically awesome resale value (not just in the current bubble). They look good, too.
Pretty basic from a tech standpoint, which is a plus if you want to keep things simple and uncluttered, but a drawback if you want the latest and greatest gizmos. Reliability will be awesome because the current generation has been around since 2009, which is nucking futs in the car industry. If there were any bugs, they'd be ironed out at some point within the last 13 years of production.
I like them, but I wouldn't want to own one at this stage in my life. I like comfort too much.

Sliver got old, man.
We have a 4Runner and statements are pretty accurate. It is as slow as a tank which doesn't bother my wife who normally drives it but I hate that. It is super comfy for us though and the kids have a ton of room in the back. Third row is less roomy than our old 2014 Pilot but the 3rd row is usually only in niche situations. If you are driving 7people all the time, you probably should get a passenger van.
