  1. Stay AWAY! Transmission issue in Tacoma

    Ok so the warning is out for engines that were built in Mexico? AND US? using non hybrid engines of a specific transmission type. Think it's worth watching, personally, I'm not changing my choices at this time.
  2. Stay AWAY! Transmission issue in Tacoma

    Haven't heard of any delays, also haven't heard of an official release. Reminder: the LC was pushed out as well. What I see is the US & Mexico NON Hybrid engines having some challenges per media influencers, and yet the trucks continue to sell. Does the Sequoia iForce Max have similar issue...
  3. Stay AWAY! Transmission issue in Tacoma

    being that it’s built at the same plant as the Land Cruiser, similar engine, wouldn’t that be a better comparison?
  4. Share your new truck purchase experience

    My previous experiences Saturn, Mazda and Ford I walked in and essentially walked out with a car. My Subie, I had to put my name on an inbound one, or a list, whichever came first due to popularity. I was shocked, I couldn't just get one. I had to wait 3-4 months. The LC, I put my name on...
  5. Breaking News (None?)

    Literally just read on FB TRD John's feed that, he's been told "we are several months away from a drive event" for the 4R. Now, hopefully that's because they are going to do this similar to the LC where the drive event was pretty much the same week as the first arrivals to port.
  6. 2025 4Runner Off-Road hood scoop?

    Oh hood scoop.....duh. Fast reading, my bad. What @rdclairm said, we aren't sure yet. And we certainly are anxious for the info per trim.
  7. 2025 4Runner Off-Road hood scoop?

    When you say scoop are you saying the thing below? This is the TRD OR Taco, I would say no. Looks like the Sport, limited and Platinum will have it. From what I hear, it's 5 bolts to remove.
  8. Transmission overheating in the new Tacoma

    Yup! I came from there to here. Fully built the way I wanted and the Premium gas thing, pass. Besides, I like the looks of the 4R more. Heavily leaning towards a TRD OR Prem package.
  9. Transmission overheating in the new Tacoma

    Is it really an issue? I tried to find something in the last 30 days, not much out there. This is the only video that I could find. The hybrid just launched and not sure it's even in the states yet. I feel like we just don't have enough info to go on yet? For me, my car has hit 101K, I'm...
  10. 2025 4Runner Chief Exterior Designer Talks Details w/ Mudbath 4Runner TRD Pro Walkaround

    I'd recommend using the Toyota Taco Hybrid builder to review the details on how things look, such as differences between Limited, Sport, TRD OR, etc looks. I say hybrid since that was the newest one released with similar styles.
  11. Breaking News (None?)

    Had to do some research. We have Overland PW week of the 28th of June. (smaller than Overland Expo National) BC Canada Overland Rally Mid July (just a Rally?) Miami Auto show in Sept Labor day weekend. Off road Expo end of Sept Not seeing a ton of activity as far as shows. I'm very...
  12. Breaking News (None?)

    Right?! So likely after the early July holidays now I suspect. Any big shows anyone know about in July?
  13. Breaking News (None?)

    I think of it this way. It’s the same engine in the LC which they put a lot of time and money and reputation to relaunch. i figure they got this figured out. At least at Japan plant.
  14. Breaking News (None?)

    Nah. The number of broncos in my small town used car lot is growing, not decreasing. Pass.
  15. Engineering Explained - FT4WD vs PT4WD (4Runner Part-Time 4WD vs. Land Cruiser's Full-Time 4WD)

    It's on the Platinum too. It could be that fine line of where does this vehicle fit? It's not a SUV (where AWD makes sense), it's also not a truck (where choosing between 2X or 4x is the standard). At the end of the day, I believe it's because of the category of people where this vehicle...
  16. Document Fee: How much and more

    I figure, we're getting fee'd to death by little bites in just about everything we do. Hotels Rental cars Housing You name it. I agree with the last paragraph. Can choose to manage your response to the fees. Negotiate, accept or move on. ;)
  17. TuxMat Floor Mats - Photos

    Huh, learn something new every day I suppose. I've been using my OEM rubber mats on my Subie since 2016, no issues. Snow, mud, gardening. Love em so much, that I'm definitely getting rubber weather mats in the 4R. Didn't know there was such a range of products!
  18. Breaking News (None?)

    The "when" was said Fall. Since it takes about 8 weeks from build to arrival, I personally figure late fall to start (Oct). Example: LC started arriving In April.. My dealer has gotten 3 since launch all presold, another local has 7 with 6 in transit, all presold. Another example we can...
  19. PLATINUM 2025 4Runner First Look and Trim Contents + Lifted 6th Gen 4Runner Rendering)

    Not completely intending to derail. I'm guessing...guessing! Looking at the Tundra build site that the TRD OR: Prem and the Platinum will be close to the same price. *Iforce max builder Tundra Platinum is 62K, and the TRD PRO is 72K. Whereas Taco Off OR: 47K, figure add 10K for the premium...
  20. Test Drove the LC Today…

    As someone who drives an Outback. Another extremely popular car. I was cautious too. But then, I’m part of a group of people who love their car and is/was popular for a reason. I see the 4R in the same way. enjoy the LC. Driving should be fun. Get out there! ?
