I took mine off on day 2 and chucked it in the dumpster, lol.

That’s why did the same thing, I’d rather make sure that I have the right bolts.

It might be that all the SR5’s only have the small front splash guard. Luckily the hardware kit is inexpensive so you can get enough bolts!

FWIW, the OEM skid plates have been on sale and since you can pick them up at the local dealership, there’s no shipping. It ended up being a lot less expensive than going with a 3rd party.

I went to put on the Trailhunter front skid today and to my surprise there was only 1 small felt splash guard up front -- no second piece as I have seen in other threads. Soooo that left me 2 bolts short, lol. Obviously the front and back 4 will hold in on just fine, but it bugged me enough to...

Yeah, I noticed that too. I can’t remember if it was the same with the 5th gen or not.

I had a 5th and 4th and frankly I was tired of the powertrain. It would have been different if was efficient and underpowered. I disagree about the 5th being sketchy on the highway, but mine also had KDSS which was actually pretty good for that. The 6th gen is more efficient, powerful and drives...

Probably mild/moderate trails and camping. So a few mods.

I just realized I haven't posted in this thread yet -- I picked up a Heritage Blue SR5 back in March. In the past I had a 2021 TRD ORP, a 2007 V6 SR5 and a first generation Tacoma. I grew up and lived in Colorado most of my life, I relocated to the PNW a dozen years ago.

Looking to pick up an SR5 wheel for a full size spare, so if you're upgrading your SR5 wheels give me a shout!

Really digging the purple -- looks great!

The last 1000 miles have been mostly city driving, I'm averaging 20-21 mpg using normal mode. I've got bigger tires than stock, so I have to do a little calculation but I've only seen a small penalty switching from the tiny highway tires to an AT. Based on shorter highway trips it seems likely...

Nice! It's been a minute since I have hit Dick's up.

I've been using 87 with the cooler weather, once it stats warming up I'll probably try a few tanks of 91 to see if there's a big difference. I previously had a Mazda CX-50 turbo, and Mazda actually has 2 sets of hp/torque numbers for their turbo vehicles and there is a decent bump in hp with the...

I must be in the minority, my insurance actually went down with my 2025 SR5 -- it is $50 a month cheaper than the Mazda CX-50 I traded in. My rate is $500 for 6th months with USAA, I also carry my stepson since he's driving my 4th gen, and it's just over $400. Granted he's 23, so the rate is...

I went with the measured sizes and calculated the difference in distance traveled represented as a percentage. I have run 255/75 before on a 4th gen, so I was pretty familiar with what I was getting. When I considered my biggest gripe with the 5th gen I previously owned (mileage) I recalled that...

Okay, this is the first tank with my new 255/75/17 tires on the SR5, mostly moderate speed highway with some city and a bit of 4wd on the beach - 23.34mpg. I hand calculated based on the difference in tire sizes. I used 87 octane, mainly on normal mode, but using the the cruise control at...

I noticed that -- there is a company selling a vinyl overlay to make the fogs yellow. This might be what happened here.

Man, I miss Moab. I used to go out there every spring until I moved to the PNW.

Thanks! This is 4Runner #3 for me, I had a 5th and a 4th before this -- and before that a 1st generation Taco. Happy to find this resource!
