I'm glad you're happy with what you have, but the fact that you wish failure upon those who feel differently about your fear for tech upgrades in this vehicle is juvenile.
You do realize that the 5th gen has always been filled with the brim with computers and electronics right?
Is it only whining when people want progress in a different direction than you want? Because to me it sounds like you're whining about people who you accuse of whining.

You don't want progress, you want a highlander. It's a great car for fancy lads like yourself.

I prefer that my vehicles don't drive like a donkey or suffer from spontaneous combustion.

Great to know that you're so much better than me and everyone else who has shared similar sentiments in this thread that you've graciously recommended us a Highlander. Look at me everyone, I'm apparently a fancy lad because I believe that we can move forward without compromise. All hail Pathfinder!
If I wanted a unibody luxury vehicle a Toyota would probably be the last one I'd pick. There are way better options out there than a Highlander. However, the 4Runner is unparalleled in the BOF SUV segment.
There's always a horse and buggy or maybe your own two feet waiting for you if you're so against the future. I hear those don't have any electronics, which means they have to be more reliable, right? Why post here if you're just gonna call everyone out for being excited for new things, and for not agreeing with you? You can choose to believe what you want, and there are 5 generations of 4Runners for you to choose from, as has been stated earlier.

It's called projecting. Just ignore him.

The current cluster (14-19) is made by Yazaki, whereas the new style clusters found in the Tacoma, Tundra, and 20' 4Runner I'm pretty sure are made in house by Denso.

No limited models for that display yet?

Holy moly, after rewatching the video I just realized, TFL emphasized they couldn't talk about driving impressions and it just occurred to me that our dreams may finally come true: A TRD PRO with KDSS? Could it be? Speculation of course, but why else would they suppress the driving impressions on a decade old, nearly unchanged vehicle?

I don’t think so... skid plate looks like the non KDSS type... they’re only trying to upsell the Fox shocks.

At 2:02 in the TFL video they show the front suspension and there is no KDSS. That would have been pretty cool though.

It's probably because this is still not the production vehicle you'll see when they roll off the line. It might be close, but the truck we saw was not a line vehicle. It may still get some tweaks and stuff. I've been through this in other industries, and it's common practice. For instance, I was curious why they didn't mention the ext. lighting. Anyway, more to come I'm sure.

Yeah, but I think it's unfortunately wishful thinking, much like my pipedreams about KDSS on the Pro. Exterior lighting might not have mentioned but unless Toyota is trying to drop the biggest surprise press release of a lifetime with features previously not mentioned during the Chicago Autoshow along with what we saw in this video, I don't foresee anything like LED lights, as much as I would kill to have them from the factory. If they do surprise us, I can see a spike in sales for this model year.
