  1. "...lacks a manual because nobody's asking for it"

    They're never going to offer a manual in the new 4runner, or any in the future more than likely, regardless of spec. Nobody wants it in any meaningful proportion. Toyota also doesn't want to waste CAFE %'s on such a small percentage of it's customer base. It's not happening. If you want one...
  2. Nevermind

    Definitely not a douche for asking a question. It's the "action" that earns the title. Sure, you may like the sound of a raspy 4 cylinder, but 99% of everyone else hates it. I know several cars around me that are owned by teens/early 20's kids that have their clapped out pos brz, g86, infiniti...
  3. Nevermind

    absolutely hate the douche bags in my area that gut their muffler/cats just for popping. It sounds like complete trash. Nobody wants to listen to a shitty 4/6 cyl with no exhaust…
  4. Nevermind

    But why?
  5. Long trip ahead (Anyone traveled super far yet?)

    depends on average speed. you can easily get 20+mpg at 70mph. mountains would obviously reduce that, but then again, nobody buys this type of vehicle for its fuel efficiency... It's perfectly comfortable, as long as it's comfortable for you. you can make seat angle adjustments with blocks if...
  6. Hybrid Real World MPG (iForce Max) - post your model, specs, general driving conditions, results:

    It's not the battery for the most part. it's the stop and go traffic. apples and oranges for the subaru
  7. Hybrid Real World MPG (iForce Max) - post your model, specs, general driving conditions, results:

    ~9600 miles, stock, 22.3 overall average, eco/normal, 87oct. Just did an ~80ish mile round trip yesterday and averaged 24.2. Don't know how y'all are getting such trash mpg... heavy foot? always in sport? towing a lot? lots of elevation gain? Have to expect crappy mpg with bigger/heavier...
  8. Air dam falling off

    The best option is simply to eliminate the air dam in the first place. Take it off, toss it in the recycling bin.
  9. Is this a hard to find 4 Runner?

    since Toyota does not take custom orders, I think the likelihood that you find one is slim to none...
  10. 2026 4Runner Non Hybrid - MPG

    interesting you're seeing such a drop in mpg on the highway. I know this is a "non" hybrid question, by my orp hybrid regularly gets 23+ on the highway at ~70 with the motor always on. I have the roof rack as well but hear zero wind noise. I'm in eco most of the time, but really haven't noticed...
  11. V6 6th Gen - Just a matter of time?

    you'll be waiting forever. GL with that...
  12. Could use some guidance - 4runner prospective buyer

    More than likely, it will brick and throw a warning to contact a dealer. Unfortunately, the hybrid uses the battery pack to start the ICE. If you lose the hybrid battery, you can't drive the vehicle. The only option/workaround is the multi-switch option which installs a dedicated alternator...
  13. How to maximize buying experience at dealership?

    Assume the dealer WILL put add-ons on the vehicle before you get there. They will overprice them and expect you to shell out for stuff they say “we can’t take it off since it’s a coating/film/whatever”. You could call them and request no addons, but it’s hit or miss if they actually comply.
  14. Oil Change and Weather guards for windows

    yes, it matters, and if any amount of simple research had been done, you'd understand why... But, if you're objective is simply to disagree with the assumption that removing wear metals and manufacturing debris from the oil is a good idea, then you're doing a good job.
  15. 5W-30 for hot climates? 0W-20 for cold climates?

    The viscosity argument is debatable to an extent. The 10,000 mile oil change interval is marketing. Never wait until 10,000 miles to change oil…
  16. Torque Spec for Oil Filter Installation

    MotivXtools makes filter wrenches for all kinds of brands. Specifically for ours, 64.3mm 14 Flute. If you want something specific that is
  17. Torque Spec for Oil Filter Installation

    I changed my oil earlier today and specifically asked chatgpt for this very value. it came back with 18ft lbs. I don't have a torque wrench that goes down that far so I simply went with my built in wrist wrench. seems to work
  18. 5W-30 for hot climates? 0W-20 for cold climates?

    Which is why I’m doing 3K OCI after break-in. Because why not!
