How are you liking the Platinum trim? 4Runners are so hard to come by in my area, it's hard to compare trims. Have you sat in a Limited as well? Is the price difference worth it to get the Platinum? Is there a real difference in touch and feel of the Platinum's premium leather?

Looks great! How long did it take you to install said lights? Is it an easy DIY project?

Nice write up. What's your opinion on the LC250? Landcruiser Landcruiser Premium is roughly the same price as the TrailHunter (give or take a few $$).

How did you like the 2022 Wrangler 4xe? I had a Wrangler 4xe as a rental for a week when family down to Miami. I really liked it; I found it fun to drive and liked the one pedal driving and the ability to get 20+ miles all electric, and the roof comes off. Poor ride ride quality, felt every...

Curious to know your thoughts on the 26 Passport TS and how it compares to your 2025 4Runner. I test drove a Passport RTL (no TS or TS Elite to test drive) and I found it has a smooth and compliant ride, along with a nice interior with lots of storage and cubbies.

How are you liking the Passport so far? I'm debating between the Passport TS Elite and 4Runner Limited. What made you decide to pick the Passport over the 4R?

What made you decide to trade in the GX550?

Are you able to clarify "Factory to Port?" Does that mean the vehicle is on a boat being shipped and has yet to arrive at port, or is it still at the factory in Japan?

Good to know, thanks!

Great spreadsheets! Please excuse the ignorance, but what is "dealer hold?

I looked over the 2025 4Runner Warranty and Maintenance Guide, and I can't find often to flush out and change the brake fluid. All I can find is "Inspect All Fluid Levels" every 5k miles. Any idea on official recommendation for brake fluid flush? FWIW the only fluid I can see that Toyota...

Interesting, what makes the TRD ORP drive better than the Limited? Kind of a bummer learning that the Limited has a jarring ride. My local dealerships still doesn't have a Limited in stock yet to test drive.

Congratz on the purchase! How's the interior quality and feel? I'm still waiting for a Limited and Platinum trim to show up so I can sit in it and get a feel for the interior. I sat in a SR5 trim 2 weeks ago and was pretty bummed at how much plastic there was in the interior, everything felt...

Automatic transmission fluid is lifetime under recommended services (i.e. just Inspect)?
