  1. Heritage Blue Off-Road Premium - Chill Daily Driver

    I made the mistake of selling my Tundra to the guy that owns the house at the entrance to my neighborhood. I see it almost every day and MAN do I miss it. I really dig my 4Runner and I'm not sorry I bought it. But that Tundra had me looking back at it for 13 years.
  2. Two ways that a Jeep Wrangler is better than a 4Runner

    That does a soft reset, not a screen-off.
  3. Phone/device mounting solution

    Not sure of the wattage, but I've had it wired to a charger and it did fine.
  4. Upgraded TK500 Turbo from Big Dawgs Toyota Tuning Installed

    I'm curious how tuning for the 4Runner even works. Especially for something major like a turbo. Not like you can hook up HPTuners and update some tables. Toyota's stuff is locked down. Can't even change the tire size in there.
  5. Upgraded TK500 Turbo from Big Dawgs Toyota Tuning Installed

    He means fuel supply. If you want more air in the cylinders, you need more fuel. And while Toyota isn't going to run their injectors at 100% duty cycle, there usually isn't enough headroom to add much extra fuel without upgrading the fuel system.
  6. Two ways that a Jeep Wrangler is better than a 4Runner

    Grabbed a cheap set of these off of Amazon and just put them behind the bolts. It spaces out the handle a bit and isn't the most attractive thing...But my wife sure appreciated it (and insisted on the orange lol). https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LOZZMFW?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title
  7. Two ways that a Jeep Wrangler is better than a 4Runner

    The handles are such low hanging fruit, I am agog every time I get in a truck or SUV without them. Then Toyota comes up with whatever they call that passenger handle. My wife called it the nail-ripper before I put an actual handle up there. I'd love a "screen off" button. I'd even be happy if...
  8. Phone/device mounting solution

    Does it heat up your phone like the factory wireless charger does?
  9. Anyone powder coat the ORP 18 wheels yet

    One of the vendors sells a sticker kit that covers the polished part to achieve the same effect for really cheap.
  10. Hybrid trick -- how to use battery only while on cruise control

    I managed 55 mph from a stop sign the other day. No engine, electric only. Slightly downhill, and if there would have been anybody behind me, they'd be LIVID with how long it took to get there LOL
  11. Is Ceramic Coating worth it ?

    I will have my 4Runner as long as it's reliable. Long time, hopefully. I won't ceramic coat it. I have had my Tundra for 13 years, no ceramic coat, and brushy-brush-brush automatic car washes since day one. Are there microscratches in the paint? YUP. Does it affect the value? Nope. Not a...
  12. Tire Poke Gas Milage Drop

    I swapped my factory OR wheels for Trailhunter wheels, they poke out quite a bit more than the OR wheels did. I've noticed no significant change in MPG, all other things unchanged from before the swap. Factory tire size. I think other mods and larger tires contribute a great deal more to fuel...
  13. Trailhunter suspension install on TRD Off-Road Premium ORP?

    $1,500 is a pretty good deal, especially if it comes with the UCAs.
  14. Some odd and interesting hybrid observations

    The battery isn't for efficiency, it's for power/torque. Toyota has always said this. Its goal isn't to save gas on your commute. The battery is (relatively) tiny. That's how it charges/depletes so fast. Also, the battery is NiMH...not NiCd or Li-ion. Safer, more durable, and longer lasting...
  15. 2026 4Runner TRD Pro … First Impressions

    Sadly, I've never seen a Toyota dealer that would adjust for larger tires. I don't even know if they can. Aftermarket solutions aren't optimal either. Toyota's computers are locked down tight AF. Most other manufacturers make it a fairly easy process.
  16. Gas gauge and low gas warning

    That's my experience as well. I ran it to zero once, and it was 16.5 gallons on fill up.
  17. Heritage Grille Part Number: 53101-35170 and 53101-35160 (TRD Pro & Trailhunter Grill)

    The OEM grill has the camera hole, but not a mount. I bought the $30 Rave camera mount and am going to relocate my factory camera up there by moving the wire harness. From factory ORP to factory TH/Pro grill, it moves the camera about 14ish inches. You should be able to calibrate it yourself...
  18. Project Trailhunter - Braun Lantern Improvement

    Been using these for years in the garage. They last a long time, are tough AF, and very useful. I had to buy a new one that wasn't covered in grease to put in the cubby though LOL
