How fast has you t4r gone?
Ok I know that these aren't bulit for speed but it's fun to go fast, so I wondering how fast have you gone in your t4r?


I'll start it off I personally went 100mph today, I think it has a few more mph left in ner but it was almost all the way down.

95MPH...the fastest I will ever go; gets really squirrely.

It's not worth the risk in a big SUV

I hit 97 MPH with the pedal on the floor. I doubt it could go much faster

I hit about 107 before it pegged out, it still had more in it but thats where the limiter cuts off power

around 105~109 or so in Nevada, long long straight road with a big down hill at one point, there was some weird submarine facility out that way in the middle of the desert , could have been Utah...dunno just know that was as fast i ever went in my truck and as fast as i will ever go in my truck as there is just not that many "reasonably safe" places to be doing that sort of speed in a truck like this and this was also before the lift and tires ect.... i'll just be clear in saying that driving that speed in almost any suv is inherently dangerous.....

I've hit 90 a couple times in both trucks, usually because some a-hole wants to speed up while i'm trying to pass.

The '01 could/would peg the speedo easy... @ 90 it still has plenty of GO left in it.

I did 160 once in my old MK3 Supra, redlining in top gear. The dashed lines on the road turn into one solid blur, along with everything else out the side windows. Brake rotors warp quickly when you try to slow from that kind of speed with any urgency. My seatbelt suddenly felt quite inadequate as a safeguard for my health and well being. The consequences of a blowout would have been deadly.

I feel the speed that would be equivalently unsafe in a 4Runner would be about 100 mph.

A tad over 100mph on a wide open, gentle downhill section south of Bloomfield, NM. Sketchy and not too smart.

85mph. Surprisingly, it didn't feel that fast...probably because i'm not lifted and on stock size tires. Even then, I doubt I'll ever go any faster. What's the rush? You get there when you get there. Enjoy the drive. ;)

Probably 90 tops. They're not real confidence inspiring at high speeds so I don't do it.

Saw 155 out of my 540i/6 and 159 on the dash of my C5 Vette. 181 on my R1. I can blame the Vette and the R1 on being young and stupid. The 540 was just grown up me playing with my new toy.

I've had my license for 5 days, what did you expect.

Edit- 104, wasn't as bad as I was expecting.

I took it to the limit once. It felt really sketchy even on a flat, clean straight away. Lived through it, so that's the last of that.
