having a rear locker is better than not having one. I think for the vast majority of people that offroad recreationally, if you get stuck and can't get out with ATRAC then you probably won't get out with a rear locker. if you're a more experienced offroader and know when to engage that locker before you get stuck it can help
4runner is very capable out of the box, all trim levels. and ATRAC is a fantastic system that bridges the rear locker gap
to give one example of where a rear locker would help is pulling a heavy boat out of the water on a slippery concrete ramp. ATRAC probably wouldn't be the best here, but throw your rear locker on and power is getting to both wheels in the back for traction
