Not really.
Drove a work Prado last summer, AC blaring on full cold, took about half an hour to get to a nice temp.
The air doesn't come out hard enough and it is not overly cold either.

My Jeep's AC works a treat, much better then the Prado ones.

Toyota reliability is pretty good.
Our old work Prado's (previous model) with 3L D4D Engine, lasted for 250,000kms with very few problems, We sold them at about 250,000k.
They were serviced on time most of the time, and everything was replaced as needed. But being a work car they were not treated nicely by all drivers.
We had 4 and they all lasted for the 250,000kms+. One even was flooded in the 2007 Hunter Foods and still worked despite having a nasty knocking sound in the engine when cold.
However the Holden rodeo with the 3.5L petrol engine we had broke down after about 20,000kms. Even after being fixed it was hard to start every now and then.

So yeah I regards Toyota as pretty reliable vehicles.
