I placed my initial deposit on my 2025 SR5 4Runner on June 7th so i thought id write up a post giving my thoughts and feelings on the car after accumulating 7,500 miles. For background, my first/only car was a 2015 Jeep Wrangler which I drove from 2018 - 2025. The main reason I decided to get...

SXTH CAI (Havent decided if its a waste of money yet), Bronze tailgate overlay (being delivered), level kit, multi tool for the side storage or the lamp, wolfbox jump starter/ compressor, TH skidplate,

transparent and "relatively" quick addressing of the issue. 1-2 years isnt fantastic for customers to hopefully get replacement engines but much better than hyundai for example. again not an ideal situation and sorry to hear you spent so much on a car that didnt live up to what you thought you...

Toyota handled that recall really well for what it was. id still say its the best automotive facility in the world considering all of their projects/history in comparison

ill go check mine out in about an hour and let you know! edit - on mine as well

the brake squeal is a non-functional issue so some are choosing to wait closer to the 20,000 miles oil change and having them throw the new brakes on then for free to get the most out of the original. I personally had them fix it at my first oil change (5,000 miles) and havent had a squeal...

The Tacoma is made at Toyota Mexico facilities and the transmission is produced in Texas. The 4Runner/LC is made at Toyota Tahara plant in japan and the transmissions are made in Japan. Both japanese plants are regarded as the gold standard for quality/MFG so I would not worry about any toyotas...

every morning ill remote start and when i get to my car if you hit settings -> bluetooth-> then check the slider for carplay on your phone and itll automatically connect. much much quicker than restarting the car

there will always be metal shavings after the first oil change. the argument people have is whether or not it affects the longevity of the engine to purge that oil quickly (500 miles or 1000 miles) or wait till the recommended interval (10K miles). I personally did my first at 3.5K, 7K, and 10K...

Also got a Sr5 to replace my 2015 jeep, ive been loving it so far

i had the complete opposite experience. I ordered online through my local dealer for pick up (i believe you can do the same thing, you dont have to order through someone) and they called me panicked saying I ordered the wrong part and theyd help me order the right one (I have an SR5 and ordered...

I ordered some filters to do my second oil change at 7K miles (first was at 3500) and third will be at 10K then ill move to doing every 5K. I also ordered the Bronze overlay for the back logos to match my bronze grille and stock TH wheels on my Underground SR5

sweet thank you, $77 i really cant ask for better than that

Id like to bronze out the "TOYOTA" and "4Runner" on the back of my SR5. Looking for PNs (or if anyone has a set that came with their car but was never installed). Thanks!

No order but a cargo net is on my christmas list:)
