  1. Toyota sued for faulty 8 speed transmission

    Only if you own Toyota stock
  2. Did anyone’s 4Runner come standard with the “secret” flashlight lantern in dash cubby hole?

    SR5s do not come with those. Just a little empty cubby behind hard plastic.
  3. Sunroof / moonroof rattle

    Shoot...well I guess I am not alone...Toyota still can't fix their moon roofs!
  4. Toyota Badge Light - Really?

    What I find incredible is that folk that think a vehicle they chose to purchase and think the vehicle is crap...but still chose to go ahead a purchase anyway. iQ slippage is what I am detecting!
  5. 1st heavy snow 4WD debacle - what can I do differently

    I drove in snow storm in WV just recenty...my SR5 did not slip once going up and down those hills...I have the Nittos on mine. My folks hill had not been plowed at all and I had no issues going up it or down it. Did not even have to use 4L coming back down.
  6. Toyota Badge Light - Really?

    And yet...you still purchased the vehicle??
  7. Recommended engine break-in and oil change frequency + factory oil analysis test (by Motor Oil Geek)

    I had my oil replaced, oil only at 1300 miles. First time ever in all my years, doing it sooner than manufacturers recommendation. Technician said the oil was as clean as it could be, almost like was poured it from the bottle. Feel a tad foolish now...but peace of mind is worth it I guess.
  8. Nightmare at 10,000 miles on TRD ORP Hybrid?

    I get your point...it is valid...but at the same time...if we buy new vehicles they are always going to be more complex than what came before them...that is progress. If these systems caused 12v battery degradation issues in general..I think we would have been hearing about it by now too...this...
  9. Nightmare at 10,000 miles on TRD ORP Hybrid?

    If it were not for the exorbitant cost and the loss of cargo space I would have purchased one. The increase in power is nothing to turn a nose up at. It is very significant and would really make towing so much better. I think MPG is the last thing that turns a 4 Runner buyer to a Hybrid.
  10. Nightmare at 10,000 miles on TRD ORP Hybrid?

    If anyone can get more than 6-7 years out of a 12v in any climate they are lucky.
  11. Nightmare at 10,000 miles on TRD ORP Hybrid?

    I saw a video where a guy was installing one of ithese dash cams and had to send it back because he figured out it was going to draw down his battery. That may be it!
  12. Wide vs. Narrow Tires & Wheels - Air Down Contact Patch Size Test

    Good video! Everybody has different preferences for different reasons. I do not want anything wider than a 265, which limits me to all the AT tires I have looked at to 32 inch tire...which is fine with me. Why? Wider AT tires that stick out past the fender flares tend to cause more dings...
  13. Nightmare at 10,000 miles on TRD ORP Hybrid?

    Bummer...hope they get it sorted. Soon as I saw your post I knew it was going to bring out all the anti-hybrid peeps. If a 12V goes bad is the worst thing that happens I think I would be ok with that. Bad luck...
  14. Sunroof / moonroof rattle

    I may just have bad luck and PTSD now. I won't buy a car that has one.
  15. Sunroof / moonroof rattle

    Owned a few Toyota's and they all had moon roofs that rattled. I just stopped buying cars with moon roofs, for that reason and they take away headroom. Toyota has never been able to successfully fix one of my moonroof rattles. They would try something but it would eventully come back. I just...
  16. Received quote for 2026 4Runner Sport Premium trim. Thoughts or feedback?

    I guess TTL on my 4 Runner was only about $875 so did not add much!
  17. I test drove an SR5 and Limited, and preferred the SR5

    Same here 42,600 + TTL out the door! Honestly one of the best car purchases I have ever made.
  18. Hybrid vs Gas Long Term Value???

    That's awesome!! 465 lbs of torque doing work!!! This is where a Hybrid beats that pants off an EV! You could tow it with an EV but you would need to stop to charge every 150 miles!!
  19. Hybrid vs Gas Long Term Value???

    I have no experience with these batteries so I really cannot say anything negative about them. I never keep a car for 10'years so the battery life would not concern me. I can never see me getting the batteries wet. I don't go off road, off pavement yes, but offroad not really. If I had to...
  20. Hybrid vs Gas Long Term Value???

    I am glad you like it! It is nice when you can feel better than!!
