The manual doesn't recommend a special first time oil change as far as I can tell: "Toyota recommends obtaining scheduled maintenance for your vehicle every 5,000 miles or six months, whichever comes first." (T-MMS-254Runner.pdf) There's a discussion on this topic here...

Good video. You usually don't see the detail on the mods in the wheel wells like this. I've got to wonder how much a custom lift affects all the fancy computer safety stuff, adaptive cruise control, etc. (and how the warranty on those things is affected after a custom lift). Toyota provides...

FWIW, I stared at the two images for a while and the images on the Toyota website appear to have different "lighting" qualities even though they are the same color, Underground. I was trying to figure out if there are other differences between these two trims from this angle besides the hood...

Honestly, I didn't even notice until now that the ORP doesn't have the same hood. The last two images I posted show the difference. I just used the build tool on the Toyota website and overlayed into an animated gif for the first image, then side-by-side in the second. I guess it's a non issue...

Of course the hood impairs visibility in some way. If you drive a 2025 4Runner you will be able to see the hood and not whatever is between you and the hood. This will impair your visibility, just like any other vehicle with a hood that you can see from the driver seat. Therefore, it will be...

There was a slight difference but not enough that I would have noticed if I was not looking for things like that. FWIW, I definitely noticed the "hood bulge". It does not bother me but I could see how others might care. Best to just test drive one.

I don't have a pic but I test drove a 2024 and 2025 (Sport Premium) the same day. I did notice a slight difference in visibility between the two, but nothing I would have noticed if I had not just driven the 2024. I'm about 5' 11" and I have no visibility concerns for this vehicle. I'm also...

There's also another useful way to get a rough estimate on delivery that others have mentioned, but I thought I'd repeat here. If you look at the VIN for the vehicle you have on hold, you can compare it to other 4Runner VINs on the Toyota and dealership websites (individual dealership websites...

I forgot to add that you need to REFRESH the page after going to the "Network" tab. I edited the post to mention this, but it's not mentioned in the graphic. I might update this later. Edit: Post and graphic were updated to include this (it bothered me enough to go ahead and fix it).

I was trying to get some more information on the status of my delivery and pieced together and updated information that I thought folks here might find this useful. Toyota has an unpublished/internal "dealer category" code for vehicles that progresses throughout the production and delivery...

I hadn't seen this one. I don't see weight capacity listed, but I will try contacting them to find out. Thanks for the link.

Yep, I've thought about this - it's a good point. Unfortunately, it's "difficult" (impossible?) to do a financial analysis upfront without knowing at least some details - for example, if you are replacing the cost of the warranty (which I don't know for sure yet) as an assumed initial...

True - In the long term I will decide where to put my money based on the experiences I have. In the short term, in situations like this, the dealership knows they have a list of people waiting to buy these vehicles. It hurts the dealers reputation if they have seedy practices, but dealership...

FWIW, "IF" I get quoted $2K for the 10 year / 125K warranty (platinum) I'd jump on that in an instant. I assumed the warranty would be much more, but I'm not sure which warranty level you are referring to. I was looking at platinum, gold, and power-train warranties this evening. I can see what...
