I can't count the number of people I've come across (myself included) that bought a "lower" trim just because they don't like the look of the Limited and all the chrome. The Nightshade made it better, but black chrome is still chrome, just to a lesser degree.
That’s not a bad idea.

These Toyota models are like Mexican food. It’s the same stuff only arranged and rearranged differently on the plate.

That's totally wrong. You can lock the center diff in the limited, yes, which puts it in 4 high, as opposed to AWD mode. You can then switch to 4lo from there.

This is what the transfer case switch in a 5th gen limited looks like:



This is the exact same way the 4WD system worked on certain 4th gen 4runners like the limited and sport edition for example. I had a 4th gen you could put into 2wd, AWD (center diff unlocked), 4WD hi (center diff locked) and 4lo (center diff locked, low range in the transfer case).

Like some others have said, I think this would make more sense if it also offered the AWD Torsen center diff. I would have been a bit more interested in that option if offered on something other than the much more expensive limited. I don't "need" it, but it would have been nice especially when others drive the truck.

Really, 20 inch wheels, who the hell makes these decisions? It was decent until I saw that.

I was hoping a "Sport" version would come with a supercharger or different gear ratios. Nope.

Poseurs that will never leave pavement or engage 4wd and want to brag about what they drive, all while visually customizing with useless junk is the target market.

Toyota will sell a bunch.

Kinda seems like they're trying to drum up excitement and move old models before the 6th Gen comes out.

Dodge and Jeep did this in the 1990s into the 2000s where they’d do an interior refresh or front clip update every 3 years or so to keep things fresh before the next generation.

If you read what I’m saying, i told him that the limited does not have a 2 speed transfer case, you lock the center diff for 4lo, I should have also specified 4hi. which is what you are saying. The limited is full-time AWD, there is no taking it out of that mode, only locking the center diff so the front and back turn at the same speed with even power distributed 50:50 front and back (when its unlocked, i believe its 40:60). Then yes, it can be geared down to 4lo. There’s nothing incorrect about the info ive provided, but I did overlook 4HI.
