Thought I would give an update on my 4Runner platinum model with iforce max engine. After another look at the battery (no visible manufacturer name) by rocking the rear end of the 4r hard I could see the water level in the battery.. What I thought was the water level were the plates inside...

Checked my 12 volt battery voltage and it was 12.1 volts. Also noticed it was very low on water in most cells..1 to 2 inches below low level mark on battery. Visible through simi translucent battery case. After some internet search found out that it might be the wrong battery. Battery is...

Had my platinum delivered in sept. It's way better then I thought it would be if your interested. I paid full msrp but they gave me a generous trade in allowance. Looking at their current dealer inventory they are offering $1500 of list price on a white trail hunter, at a Toyota dealer in...

platinum update after having it for a few days now that some of you might be interested in. It came with locking lug nuts on all wheels which I did not order or was not charged for, problem at hand is the dealer does not have the factory wheel lug nuts but they said they would look into it. It...

Look what just arrived at my dealership! Made arrangements to pick it up tomorrow afternoon, its going to be a long night LOL. I did get a chance to see it and walk around and a few things noted were the tires are Yokohama Geolandar x-cv, I was happy with that, the spare is a match to other 4...

My delivery window just went from 9/24-10/8 to 9/25-10-1!! Must be at Chicago distribution center waiting for delivery to Wis. I to pre ordered Lasfit Matt’s and took advantage of local sale on a set of Michelin ltx defenders m&s. Will probably put 100 miles o the crapy stock Grantrek tire...

Agreed on your opinion on Grandtrek, from what I’ve been reading a true good summer tire. I live in Wisconsin and hunt a lot in northern part of state. Defender ltx 2 m/s on sale now until 9/21. Probably will buy them now. ( might have to look into climate 2)Thanks to all. Actually have them...

I should be getting my new Platinum in the next couple of weeks. I would like to know from anyone that has taken delivery of one recently what brand of tires came with it? I believe in the first half of the year they came with Yokohama tires and i think most recently switched to Dunlop Grandtrek.

I also got the Lasfit liners and they are nicer then I thought they would be material wise not hard and slippery like weather tech mates are. On the screen protector I haven't made up my mind so many choices and products. Toyota offers one $115 hard plastic, Spigen hard plastic same one I have...

ordered my platinum last feb and just received notice from dealer that it was just built aug 18 and possibly have it by end of sept. almost 8 months. they originally said wait time about 4 to 6 months. This has been been a hard year for autos especially Japan. i can say that there is no concrete...

I have been watching the Triton Highway since it departed on 8/26 and as of noon today the roro vessel is off shore of Portland scheduled eta today at 1800. Here is the question why did the allocation list indicate the shipping status just changed from factory to port to port to dealer?? Anyone...

No dealer daily report just depart date and ships name Tritons highway

Continue from above post. First mine is a platinum not limited. (Not that it makes any difference) The time line from arrival to when it I'd departs on rail to Midwest is confusing. I'm hopping it can be on a rail by 9/13 ??? And arrive there in about a week 9/20? Possibly somewhere in Illinois...

Feel like I'm part of a group because mine also left on 8/26 due today or tomorrow 9/6 Portland. I dond have a lot of POI to be installed so maybe an early rail freight to Midwest? Final dest is Wisconsin and from the best of my checking pacific rail then to
