I think 2 inches in the front might be slightly high based on the lift I just did- not 5100’s though. I had 5100’s on my 4th gen and they were totally fine, obviously there are better and worse options. I can’t remember which snap ring settings the 5100’s have, but I think something around 1.75”...
Last summer I was driving on a trail off road in 4HI and noticed after a long uphill climb that my transmission temp was creeping up pretty high. I read later online that this doesn’t happen when the vehicle is put into 4LO in that situation. It was not something I worried about in my 4th or 5th...
I’m just going to add that unlike passenger cars, the batteries in the 4Runner are inside the fully boxed steel frame, so even in a rear end collision there should be less of a chance they would rupture just because of the way 4Runners are built vs unibody cars.
I owned a 2021 TRD ORP for 2 years and while there was no doubt it was durable it didn’t feel any different or better than my 2007- because it wasn’t, lol. Actually in some ways I preferred my 4th gen! For the record my son inherited my 4th and it’s still cruising along almost 20 years later...
I live in the PNW, so I've had the chance to experience this quite often in the last 11 months of ownership. I find that it's worst when you slow down -- which causes the water to move forward and then blow back. If you go fast, the water follows those channels towards the back of the hood and...
It’s funny how some people find the seats comfortable and others have issues. I’m 6’6’” and I haven’t had any issues in the 10k miles I’ve had my 6th gen- but I had issues with my 5th gen 🤷🏻
I am running the Cooper R+T in 255/75/17 and I have been really impressed so far. Gas milage is down slightly, but really not bad. I've had them since April, no snow -- but they've handled the beach and some mid-moderate trails really well. Wet traction also seems really good, but that will...
There’s only a few 6th gens in my city, and the other Heritage Blue one I’ve seen is a TRD OR. There’s also a white TRD OR and one Red that I didn’t see the model. That said, there are a ton of 5th gens and Tacomas, so people are probably just happy with what they’ve got.
I honestly didn’t even notice it until it started to peel off. My dealer didn’t hesitate to replace it, which is nice. Actually my dealership has never given me any issues so I’m not surprised. As soon as they get the parts to fix my brakes they’ve already said they would do those as well.
It mattered to me. The fact that the Tacoma isn’t, swayed me even further (I’ve owned 3 4R and 1 Taco) when I was deciding on going back to a Tacoma.
