So looking at pictures of the prototype interiors, the 4Runner definitely will not be able to install the compressor as an accessory. For the Tacoma there is a DC/USB power supply in the slot the air compressor occupies on non-trailhunter trims. The 4Runner has a specifically designed interior...

FYI, the Air compressor on the Tacoma is listed in the accessory manual so I believe it can be added to any trim. If so it might be similar for the 4Runner though I can't remember if spot for it was covered up or not on the Limited and Pro. Anyway, it is over $1K for the Tacoma. Here is the...

I just don't understand why traditional manufactures are not allowing the plethora of on-board cameras to be recorded and used as dashcams. At least with these new models there is a built in option for power to an aftermarket one. The OEM one at $500 is just insane.

looks like this has been out for a month. https://media.toyota.ca/en/releases/2024/2025-toyota-4runner-refines-adventure-ready-heritage.html https://www.toyota.ca/toyota/en/register-for-4runner-updates

In 20 years almost all of the manufactured vehicles will be full EV. Honestly this is probably the last ICE only generation for the the 4Runner. Large manufactures like Toyota will likely be doing some ICE vehicles in 20 years, but most of those will still besome form of hybrid. Meanwhile, small...

Um... yeah. That is kind of what a pickup truck is. It has a longer wheel base to support the bed and improve towing. A shorter turning radius is just the sacrifice you pay with a longer wheel base. The two go hand in hand. If that is what a person is focusing on then they obviously are not...

So she bought the current 5th Gen and come 9 months from now she will regularly ride in, drive, and look at your 6th Gen? Damn, I think that buyers remorse is going to hit HARD about a year from now. There might be SOME growing pains, but overall I don't expect the 6th Gen to be much less...

I definitely am. I'm leaning toward the Tacoma as I have never had a truck and would really like to. However, I will only buy it if they add memory seats with the 2025 model. Also the lack of rear vents could end up being a deal breaker. All in all I'm super excited about both. I'm firm that...

Announcements like this are intentionally slow rolled. They doll out information slowly over time to help build the hype among their enthusiast buyers (like many of us here). This is especially true when looking at all the teasers they did leading up to the initial reveals for both the Tacoma...

I understand the perspective here, but I personally find that much of it has made me a better driver. In addition, it DRAMATICALLY reduces highway fatigue. Not having to worry about most steering and speed control allows you to relax and be more focused on the road as a whole. The less things...

Go test drive a Tacoma. Besides a few differing features, the front seat experience should be exactly the same as the new 4Runner. Size should be a perfect one for one.

When you say the Canyon was small, was that sitting in the front seat or back seat? If you find the Canyon small in the front I fear that you will for all of these vehicles. Though I too don't have personal experience, I think they are pretty much all about the same for front seat size. I would...

I'm mostly considering a 4th gen Tacoma or a 6th gen 4Runner. I lean toward the Tacoma's form factor, but some of the missing features may prevent me from buying it. No memory seats is a deal breaker and the lack of rear vents could be considering I live in Oklahoma and have small children. I'm...

Interesting though. However, I can't see them doing something like this that is not soft top. It just makes it too inconvenient to get into the back. Honestly I can't see them doing something like this at all. I think a big reason you don't see vehicles like this anymore is that the market has...

I actually meant at a tire shop. I know many will pay you for a trade in. Anyway, regarding the tires, that was kind of where my mind was. The tires on my Forester Wilderness are pretty great and that is what I want to replicate. A light AT with minimal road noise and MPG impact. Still having...

Anyone have experience with switching out brand new wheels and tires? I wouldn't mind paying a little to do it, but I would hope trading in new premium wheels would make up most of the cost to getting me decent 18" wheels and light AT tires.

Hard to say. It will still have better aerodynamics than a truck. I don't think it would be more than one MPG less.

I very much hate the trend of larger and larger wheels. I agree with others that I would MUCH rather have 18" wheels. I know I and my wife will inevitably have a curb check here and there and the added protection is very nice. The stupid huge wheels just cause more problems.

I've watched the first video already, but not the second. The impression I got from the first one and others was that there were two different design teams that worked together. However, I could absolutely be mistaken. Knowing how engineering works, there are probably elements of truth to both...

I am kind of surprised they did not have a manual option for the 4Runner after they went to so much trouble to get a manual option in the Tacoma. However, the manual in the Tacoma was a product of the passion of the US design team. The 4Runner design team is in Japan and probably does not have...
