What's the one thing the 6G gets wrong (or is missing) that would make it better?
Could be spec, tech, trim availability, factory tire choice, something interior, anything.

Bonus: what does it get right that nobody talks about?
I feel like there’s not much it got wrong! My Trailhunter has been everything I hoped it would be and no vehicle will be everything to everyone. Just got back from Utah and performance off-road with no mods was awesome. I even like the sound from the high air intake!

I have to say the same about my Trailhunter. It's been great, no issues or problems.

Not sure if mentioned yet, but the front cup holders. Obviously the size since theres plenty of aftermarket add ons to hold larger cups, but the location.

Running parallel with the console was a bad idea. If you rest your arm on it, you also rest your arm on whatever cup/bottle you have in the cup holder.

Stood out bad after I drove the Old Ladys LC, and the cupholders are to the right of the shifter and run perpendicular to the console. Same thing in my F150

Size of gas tank…longer range.

Front widow visors that extend when you turn toward door window versus lame small extender.

My wife has 26 Tundra TRD Pro…much better exhaust system, would have saved me money from purchasing Borla cat back system.

Differential breather mounted in a higher location and one-way valve. I replaced it with an ARB Breather Extension Kit.

Flat back seats when folded.

Otherwise, I love the 6 Gen.

+1 on poor range, no driver grab handle and interior lights are way too dim.

Small gripes switching from a '25 Tacoma ORP (hybrid) to a '26 4Runner ORP (gas): seat cooler is almost useless compared to Taco, no dual zone climate, no flat key included (and a bunch more poverty buttons lol)

Only major irritation is the rattling. Speakers rattle both doors at different bass frequencies at different times. But the frequencies keep changing, so I can't replicate it at the dealership!
