  1. Pakmule Hitch Cargo Carriers

    Ouch...expensive indeed. I have no experience with the Pakmule, but I have the steel one from Harbor Freight that has worked very well. They have aluminum options as well. They are obviously not made in the US, but also cost $60-120. I would sure not mind paying more for one made in the US (or...
  2. DV8 front skid plate for 2026 hybrid platinum 4Runner

    I have no experience,, but if you step through the options on the product page it says it will.
  3. Bass Pro 4Runner Playset - custom painted to match my real-life 4Runner

    I am sure there is...if nothing else get paint from Toyota for an exact match.
  4. Spare Hardware Identification

    Could be different...new version? Or maybe I forgot what my original outside bolts looked like before I lost them :-). As you probably know there is a service bulletin (or something like that) about the air dam coming loose. Mine has been ok (aside from my error), but apparently now they have...
  5. Spare Hardware Identification

    5 in the middle, 2 on each end. I just removed/replaced mine yesterday (off when I went off-road, back on for the freeway). I had not tightened mine enough the first time and they fell out, so I am using different ones I found in my stash. The originals were all black hex head with phillips as well.
  6. OEM skid plate prices

    I paid $311 plus tax during the end of year sale. The steel one would have been proportionally less. Considering the discount I just got the full set (transfer case and differential), total was $752 including tax. Legally, technically, you may not be able to buy out of state to save tax. Many...
  7. Interior Lighting (Map Lights) - NOT Meso

    The stock lights do seem a bit dim to me, but then again probably appropriate balance between enough and too much (that would affect safety if the passenger used it while the vehicle was moving). I had an old Sienna that I replaced all the interior (and exterior, actually) lights with standard...
  8. Newby alert…

    The read and Heritige Blue were close for me...I think I prefer the red slightly but got blue...it was available :-). Welcome!
  9. New 4Runner not the best with dogs

    I have this: https://twistep.com/ Works very well, dogs generally like it better than a ramp--at least all my very large dogs; they have a hard time with grip with ramps I have tried as they are too steep and not rough enough--and they take to hopping up/down to a stable platform quickly. As...
  10. Bronco —> 4RUNNER ORP

    I was going back and forth between the 4Runner and Bronco...it was close. As you decided, though, I decided the 4R was the better daily driver. I expect the B to be better off-road, but not really where I want to go. Also the horrific fuel mileage on the B really put me off. I think you will...
  11. Traded in SR5 for ORP

    In originally was looking at the OR...no P :-). I ended up going with the ORP though...I was rather quickly convinced it was worthwhile. Bigger screen is really nice, especially with maps and all the cameras. As mentioned, the ventilated seats are wonderful during hot weather. For me the rear...
  12. Physically pushing your 6th gen 4Runner

    Funny that this thread moved to parking brakes1 Parking brakes are a secondary safety. Yes, an automatic transmission locks, but it can fail. I know at least one case where a person was killed because of this. In that case there was a recall for the transmission lock that had not been repaired...
  13. Recommendation for best DD SS3 ditch light bracket for 2025 4Rnr TRD PRO?

    I installed the CBI brackets, they seem good--look very similar to the Cali Raised and currently about the same price--both on sale here (I have no affiliation): https://www.4runnerlifestyle.com/products/cbi-ditch-light-brackets-for-6th-gen-4runner?_pos=1&_sid=c3c0100c1&_ss=r
  14. Noise coming from 4Runner hours after engine is off - normal?

    I have generally read my manual (not quite cover to cover probably, but the vast majority). That said, I am sure I have missed things and have asked about those. I do not recall seeing that note about the evap system, and honestly would not have expected the manual to state this--so may not have...
  15. Drawer System + Dual Battery Project

    Got it. Maybe should throw on a solar panel or 2 if you have space on top!
  16. Airlift Airbag Helper Airbags

    Not being sarcastic or anything, but why? Max net load rating is only something less than 1,000# anyway, so what would these give you?
  17. 2025 4R TRD Pro Really Noisy Windshield Wiper Motors

    In Southern CA I do not use the wipers much, but definitely have. I did not find them noisy at all, so I am guessing there is a fixable problem with yours.
  18. Any engine or tarnsmission problem/s yet?

    Over 12,000 miles so far on my ORP Hybrid, no issues at all (aside from that minor brake squeal, which was fixed under warranty). Some light off-roading, mostly highway.
  19. Drawer System + Dual Battery Project

    Looks like a nice, clean install! How are you charging it--just from the engine?
  20. First off-roading, crawling & camping adventure @ Fish Creek Wash Anza Borrego State Park

    Very nice! That red was my "other" favorite color, ended up getting Heritage Blue (it was avaiable right away). I was in Anza Borrego a few times in the last month or 2, definitely the time to go. We were in the Canyon sin Nombre area. We plan to go out again in a couple weeks at least. I might...
