What is your *fav* 4G feature?

Out of all the great points about the 4G what is your pick for best feature? What really sets it apart? What can you no longer live without?




My choice: the flexible 4wd system of the v6.

This really is a do-it-all: 2wd, ft 4wd, center lockable, atrac & vsc. The system does everything I wanted, and it does them all very well. No more fooling with part time 4x4 or open-diff systems for me!

Roll down rear window. Somewhat unique and very useful to me and I'll find it hard to give it up.

I love how you can roll all the windows down and open the sunroof by holding down the unlock button on the key fob. What a great way to cool the truck down on a hot day.

I was just asking the same thing. What?? The windows don't roll down on my '04 if the unlock button is held down.

I've only had my 06 a week but so far I'm hooked on the AUX input for the stereo. I got the 10 speaker JBL system without nav. This thing rocks. Maybe later something else will shine, but for now I'm enjoying my 10,000 song collection on my Ipod!

Favorite feature(s)?

The 4runner's damn good looks and body styling. It's also got the best looking ass out of all the SUVs out there.

Ditto on the rear window and rear hatch auto-closer.

The 4WD system.

I wish I had an SE, I would probably list X-REAS if I had it too.

My favorite is the MP3 playback on CD's. I've burned my own music CD's for a long time, but now I can finally put several hours of music on one disc!

Doesn't do it on mine. I even asked the salesman about it before I purchased and he said it doesn't do it. I think the 4runner is the only SUV that doesn't have that function. Kind of strange for them to not have it while almost everyone else does.

Oh yea, favorite feature: I like the V8!

Maybe the auto roll down is an after factory feature. One salesperson tried to tell me they auto down. Didnt buy my 4Runner from him....

So many cool features, but I think the auto open/close sunroof is tops for me.

TR4MATT,

Your are a dog!!! I pushed and pushed on the unlock button of my remote, cursing all the while. I only live a couple of hours north of you and I'm tempted to drive to K'town to find you!

It's gotta be the XREAS system for me... when I test drove my truck I drove round in circles at high speed and the thing was rock solid - barely leaned at all.

And my least favorite feature of the 4G... the damn power window switches that DON'T LIGHT UP. What were they thinking????!
