  1. No Markup / No ADM Dealers @ MSRP Price for 2025 - 2026 4Runner 6th Gen - List Them

    Toyota of Dartmouth Mass has an ice cap/red iForce Max TRD Pro on the lot. MSRP is $70,574 and the advertised price is $65,900. I drove by it yesterday and was tempted to trade mine in for it but my wife would kill me 🤣...
  2. Do you change your own oil or have Toyota service center do it?

    I have had great luck at Toyota of Dartmouth (Mass) with a number of my Toyotas over the years and will continue to service there for my 6G. For me its not worth the hassle of chaining my oil roughly twice a year. Maybe if I was younger (I'm 65) and had a garage :unsure:
  3. Turn off detected trailer option?

    I had a similar issue with my bike rack. When I install it (1UP) in the folded/upright position I get the Trailer detected message. I say yes and hold in the button. the 4R turns off a bunch of warnings and PKSB. When its folded down to hold my bike I get the trailer not detected but I answer No...
  4. Surprising conclusions from review: "Rugged Face-Off: 2026 Honda Passport Trailsport Elite Vs. 2025 Toyota 4Runner TRD Off Road Premium"

    Before owning my 4R I drove a 23 Honda Ridgeline. It was totaled by a little old lady so I looked at the Passport and 6G 4R. The Honda V6 engine / transmission is as best as I can describe as boring. I visually hated the push-button transmission shifter and the "space age" instrument cluster (I...
  5. I'm deciding now on a 4R please let me know what if any problems you have had?

    7500 miles on my ORP so far. zero issues. I love it. You need watch a few Youtube videos to figure out how you want to set things up with the dash and infotainment systems. Love the ride, no rattles or squeaks. Averaging 21.5 mpg (25/75 city/highway). I do wish it had more enclosed storage space...
  6. Wheel accessory upgrade - 4 or 5 wheels included?

    Had a flat not too long ago. I have the upgraded TRD wheels. I was actually surprised it came with the ORP wheel and not a typical black steel wheel. But yea, 5 would have been nice. At least its a full size tire ;)
  7. Switched from Regular to Premium gas. 4Runner runs better (more power & smoother)

    Would cost me about $50 a month to run Premium. I think I'll stay with regular
  8. Which HVAC mode to blow to rear seats?

    Auto mode should direct air to the rear seats as long as the S Flow switch is not activated. Page 464 of the manual. S Flow switch is the left of the temperature knob
  9. Speedometer miscalibrated?

    I just found this thread. I've been wondering the same. My ORP came with the TRD wheels but pretty sure the tires are what I would have gotten with the stock wheels (the spare confirms that). Comparing to Waze or Google Maps, my speed on the dash is always 2 mph higher than the reported GPS...
  10. Air Dam Removal - Did You or Not?

    I think it looks much better with it off but still havent done it. Have there been any reported issues with it being off (other than the mpg)?
  11. MPG Fuel Economy Figures + Fuel Capacity for 2025 4Runner 6th Gen (Gas & Hybrid Engines)

    Hi, I think I had about 1K miles on the ORP before using Fuelly. I honestly dont remember what the average mpg was over the first 1K miles, but think it was 19 and change. Since using Fuelly its pretty consistent around 21 mpg +/- .5
  12. Google Maps directions now appear in gauge cluster after installing iOS 26

    Tried it this morning and yes indeed it works, similar to the Toyota maps. I hope Waze makes it to the cluster some day.
  13. MPG Fuel Economy Figures + Fuel Capacity for 2025 4Runner 6th Gen (Gas & Hybrid Engines)

    I use the Fuelly app. 4357 miles recorded with it, 21.4 average MPG, best was 22.7, 30/70 city/highway. Always use top tier gas. 87 octane
  14. First service and oil change at 10k miles recommended by Toyota?!

    My maintenance due notification came on at just under 5K miles. took it to the dealer and they did the service for $0 (my first service).
