Thats worse than me saying not getting a trd pro because of the hood scoop.
You must have never used adaptive cruise... It's amazing. Also, in no way dangerous because you are at a safe following distance and can always just hit the brakes like normal. Don't knock it before you try it...

I love adaptive cruise because there is always room for me to cut people off when needed and I know the car wont let you hit me.

"Chrome strip above the Toyota logo."

Is it real chrome or just the same old cheap plastic they use everywhere else?

In the Audi's MMI you can adjust the distance that you follow the car in front of you during stop-n-go traffic. I think it's something like 1-6 car lengths. Anyway, the reality is you can either have it follow the car in front of you so closely that you'll be breaking sodomy laws in several states or leave a gap so huge that everybody keeps cutting you off, over and over again. I find it more aggravating than driving in rush hour on my own.
The three distance selections in the Camry I drove were pretty reasonable. Closest was more than comfortable for my typical spacing and furthest was a bit too far for my liking but totally fine if you're not one to freak out about people getting in front of you.

I definitely wouldn't use stop-and-go as a way to "relax" in traffic. I'd use it as a way for me to not have to move my goddamned foot a thousand times in an hour. Then again, I'm not a terrible or distracted driver like lots of people.

I'm not sure car manufacturers have used real chrome since 1973.

You can still find real chrome on some new pickups.

Really? Which ones? Can't imagine any exposed metal on modern vehicles that also acts as an aesthetic piece.

"I'm not sure car manufacturers have used real chrome since 1973."

Actually the late '70s up well into the '80s. Yeah, I'm old.

But it begs the question, why does anyone call shiny plastic chrome? It's nothing like chrome. Wrong material, wrong look, wrong durability.

I like the new RAV4 front end too. Fast forward 20 years though, I think the current 4Runner black tear drop inlays extending down to round lights will look great on an older truck.

I did get a 2020 ORP and I will likely just roll some 3m vinyl tape over it. To be honest, the big screen (it’s amazing) , the greatly improved dash info screen, push button, and GREATLY improved Entune Nav/ Apple Car play has made me not really care about that extra chrome. This is the 4Runner I was waiting for and is worth the extra cost. Tire Pressure monitor has already come in handy in the first week as the dealer had my tires at 52 PSI and I only caught it scrolling through the settings. The safety stuff is turned off. Tires and Black valances coming Friday - can’t wait. I will shave that chrome mustache soon though - need to see some mods for this issue.
I picked up my 2020 TRD ORP yesterday and noticed that the dealer had my tires at 50 PSI as well. Wonder if it's a shipping things.

why would you want your cruise set under 20? might as well jog to work

Most manufactures set pressure high for transport, most dealers in Chicago have dumb shit kids prepping vehicles forsale and have no clue to check the tires even though its on the list

I did hear they pump them up for the overseas trip. They seem to all be set at 50psi - have heard several new buyers - myself included -having them set at 50. Somebody described it accurately as driving on basketballs.
