When I got my TH a year ago, I wasn't impressed with the mileage. I got a bit over 20 around town in Normal mode. Took a road trip last fall and I was down into the high teens. In the past 2-3 months, I've switched to Eco mode and just had my 15k service done and I'm up to 23.
Making the quantum leap from a Gen 1 to a Gen 6, I do like all the tech in there designed to prevent you from getting into a collision but that only works one way. If the other driver isn't driving a current vehicle with similar tech, none of it will help you.
I'm pretty sure I have one of these in my TH. I've been meaning to remove it but I'd like to know if anyone has actually removed it from their 4Runner given that the video is for a Camry. There are several panels that have to be removed to get at the connections and I want to be sure that I...
Cons:
The kick tailgate opening feature. My success rate is less than 1 in 10.
The fact that rear window being even partially down conflicts with the tailgate motors doing anything. If you hit the button and the window is even a tiny bit down, the motors don't work and the window buttons stop...
Yuck. I rented a Durango last fall. What a crappy vehicle in every way, shape, and form.
In fact, the list of vehicles I've rented in the last couple of years included a Rogue (inscrutable user-experience. How you you put this thing in reverse?!), a Jeep Compass (complete garbage. The active...
In 1986, I went to look at every SUV on the market at the time. I was driving a 1975 AMC Matador Station Wagon with wood paneling on the side. But I digress. I sat in everything except the 4Runner which no dealer had at the time. They were all decidedly meh. I finally saw a 4Runner SR5 on a...
It appears that the air pump needs to be powered on for this jack to have power.
Regardless, it's not enough to keep a Starlink Mini up and running. C'mon, Elon, you and your people are better than this.
Does anyone know where the fuse for the rear 12-volt power outlet (next to the air compressor) on a Trailhunter might be?
The one in the front console works and the air compressor turns on. The manual is no help and the fuse position diagrams on the fuse block covers only show P/OUTLET 1 which...
Overall, I love my TH. It's such a nice upgrade from the Gen 1 4Runner SR5.
Things that are less-than-stellar are the snorkel noise, the hatchback kick sensor -- I can never get it to work reliably, there's no way to turn on the A/C output without the engine running -- at least let me turn it...
Have you calibrated the seat? There's a procedure for that. IIRC, you can tell if it's not if it beeps while you're moving the seat.
What I have noticed is that it's supposed to position everything when you either start the vehicle or plug the seat belt in but sometimes it forgets to do that.
