Okay, I'll indulge in a bit of ranting. Note: none of these pics are mine, but my personal vehicle does have all of these.

Of course, the fake hood scoop. I have it. I both like it, because I used to have a WRX, but also hate that it's non-functional.



This and other stupid pockets in the wheel wells that collect dirt/debris. Like WTF. How hard is it to make the wheel well smooth? Why is there a collection pocket?!



Not the worst thing I've ever seen, blends in okay, but fake carbon fiber? Ehh. (my shift knob isn't carbon fiber, that must be aftermarket)



Why is the interior plastic made of such a delicate material with no resistance to scuffs/scratches? It is some of the softest plastic ever.



I'm not a fan of the foot e/parking brake. I wish it was a handle style one. Maybe I'm just used to that from previous vehicles? But when I'm on the trail doing stuff and hopping in/out, it'd be nice if it was a handle.



I'm not sure if I'd use it... and I know some folks have modified theirs to add one, but I kinda wish that the 4Runner came with a driver's side a-pillar grab handle! I might have to do the mod one day.



To be fair, there's quite a few blanks available to wire in your own switches, but what would have been nice if they had pre-wired in some accessory switches. You're seeing that a lot more in Broncos and other vehicles. The buttons are already there with wiring/relays, you just gonna plug in.



Okay, #firstworldgripe here, but why don't they all have auto headlights? I've got auto high beams which I never use because it's way too slow reacting for me (unless out on a wide open road), but auto on/off would be nice.



That's all I can think of right now :P That being said, I like my car. I like it's ancient technology and chunky HVAC controls and semi-manual T-case. That's why I bought it and not some newfangled CUV thing!

1. Put the headlight switch on headlights.
2. Never turn it off.
3. ?????????
4. Profit.

The headlights will turn off after a minute or two of the truck being turned off.

I've never liked the giant chrome bar across the font of the 2014+ limited. Or any of the other chrome for that matter...

2020+ you want to go forward a track or backwards a track, you have to push the up/down arrow. Want the volume to go up/down, push the arrow left/right. Talk about assbackwards.

You want to display your current speed on the digital display, cool but we’re going to put the display that shows the current speed limit on a totally different section so you don’t see them together.

For comparison to Toyota:

The Land Rover forum members are defensive over their vehicles. There’s no sense of humor, no self deprecation despite being such horrendously unreliable vehicles. It’s painfully obvious and even more painful to see a customer base that is in denial that no amount of maintenance can prevent the numerous air suspension faults and other electronic gremlins that will undoubtedly appear in their lease or ownership.

The break-fix threads do contain helpful information, but there is NO tolerance of groveling or bashing the brand, even from people who own the vehicles and are struggling. While it does keep the conversation “productive” it also has an air of “you’re no good to us unless you’re supporting the brand”. Without people, there is no brand. And the brand has to be cognizant of the ownership experience - at LEAST through the initial 3 year lease, my god.
