I was stoked when I found out about the TURBO 2.4 (22re fan here). I also had for a year a VW TDI 1.9 ALH and that tiny turbo was awesome.
People don't realize that Turbos come a LONG way and Toyota has been using them for DECADES>
And nothing drive like a SUBARU. Wife has a 18' forester and...
I haven't done much research on that but I think on the Taco it's an issue. the spare looks quite snug in stock form... hope someone can shine some light soon on the matter.
Hello there!
I've had this 99' 3rd gen 4x4 Manual as a DD since Aug of 2017. Love the thing and before that an 85' 4runner for 3 years, which replaced an 87' Pickup for a decade....
Needless to say as I'm getting grey myself, I think it's time to have some comfort and gadgets behind the wheel...
I totally agree with your comment. I stood next to a LC250 in heritage Blue and it struck differently than photos for sure. I really like it and would only pick "Lunar Rock" (if available) over Heritage blue now.
Awesome, yeah and you are on the nail about the power vs mpg saving, but it's nice to hear it from the "deadhorse's " mouth. ? I got to go on offroad trails following a non-hybrid Taco and it sound like a Diesel crawling up stuff (that D4D).
Thanks for putting into comparison with your Tundra...
Nice!
thanks for sharing this kind of experience. It's exactly what I'm looking for.
How much EV did it do when "grandma" taking off on the country roads?
