How are you liking the Platinum trim? 4Runners are so hard to come by in my area, it's hard to compare trims. Have you sat in a Limited as well? Is the price difference worth it to get the Platinum? Is there a real difference in touch and feel of the Platinum's premium leather?
How did you like the 2022 Wrangler 4xe? I had a Wrangler 4xe as a rental for a week when family down to Miami. I really liked it; I found it fun to drive and liked the one pedal driving and the ability to get 20+ miles all electric, and the roof comes off. Poor ride ride quality, felt every...
Curious to know your thoughts on the 26 Passport TS and how it compares to your 2025 4Runner. I test drove a Passport RTL (no TS or TS Elite to test drive) and I found it has a smooth and compliant ride, along with a nice interior with lots of storage and cubbies.
How are you liking the Passport so far? I'm debating between the Passport TS Elite and 4Runner Limited. What made you decide to pick the Passport over the 4R?
Are you able to clarify "Factory to Port?" Does that mean the vehicle is on a boat being shipped and has yet to arrive at port, or is it still at the factory in Japan?
I looked over the 2025 4Runner Warranty and Maintenance Guide, and I can't find often to flush out and change the brake fluid. All I can find is "Inspect All Fluid Levels" every 5k miles. Any idea on official recommendation for brake fluid flush? FWIW the only fluid I can see that Toyota...
Interesting, what makes the TRD ORP drive better than the Limited?
Kind of a bummer learning that the Limited has a jarring ride. My local dealerships still doesn't have a Limited in stock yet to test drive.
Congratz on the purchase!
How's the interior quality and feel? I'm still waiting for a Limited and Platinum trim to show up so I can sit in it and get a feel for the interior. I sat in a SR5 trim 2 weeks ago and was pretty bummed at how much plastic there was in the interior, everything felt...

FWIW, Consumer Reports gave the 2025 Tacoma a predicted below average reliability rating. The 2024 Taco was given a below average reliability rating, with downgrades in its transmission, steering and suspension, and noises/creaks. CR gave the 2025 4R a predicted above average reliability...
I agree with your assessment.
I sat in the new Land Cruiser a few weeks ago, and for some reason, it just did not "feel and look like a Land Cruiser." For comparison I'm looking at trading in my 09 LX570 (essentially a suited up LC), and the new LC didn't feel right, felt like a downgrade from...
Thanks, good to know. I've been eyeing the Limited trim and Toyota website says no full size spare (just like the SR5). I was thinking the Limited and SR5 had no spare tire at all, but now knowing there's a compact spare, that's a little better IMHO, at least much better than a fix-a-flat.
Can you clarify "does not come with a full size spare tire?" Does that mean the spare tire you have is a compact spare tire? Or did you have to pay to have spare tire added? Thanks.
