In my opinion the Trail is just fine. It doesn't need running boards because they only hinder you offroad.

An ARB rear air locker goes in when I get back but the ATRAC has been great so far. Click on my mods link to get the whole story.

Now I understand...Very impressive. I can't tell you how many times I wanted to purchase a vehicle in one edition but also want some features offered in a different trim line, and had to settle. Who knew you could sort of get what you wanted all in one? Combining features of Limited with TE? very nice.

5th Gen

Mine is a V6....No V8 is avail on 5th gen as of now.
I believe a 4-cycl version will not be available until early 2010.
Mine came with the following options:
1. Sport fabric-trimmed seats
2. Power Seat (8-way for driver and 4-way for passenger)
3. Bluetooth technology for audio player and cell plus Ipod connection.
4. XM radio (3-month free-trial)
5. 3rd Seat Option (completely folded flat).
6. Sun/Moon roof
7. 120V outlet
The biggest improvement is the head-room. INs and OUTs are so much easier than the previous gen..... You all know what I mean! The second row seat has "PLENTY" of leg room.....Love it!!! It is actually a lot "BIGGER" and "TALLER" than it looks on the web site......just wait until your dealer has one and go see it in person.
Performance wise....I haven't really "step" on the gas pedal yet as I was cruising 80 mph and the RPM was just a little over 2K with ECO light on.....So far I got a 17.9 mpg city and highway combined.
And "NO"...I did not pay full sticker price (-$500 discount.) I did receive offers from 4 other dealers but they all want sticker price since they will only have ONE on the lot until the next batch release.
The dealer I bought from delivered mine only 3 hrs after they got it. As far as the 7-pin/4-pin wire hardness adapter, it was in the glove compartment...I asked my dealer and they had no idea about the delay as you may have seen on the other threads.

I have great pictures, I just can't seem to load them up.
What's the trick to loading pics on this board? I have some great TE pics but they are all too large to upload apparently.
How do I do this?

Resize them to 800x600 pixels.

Get a photobucket.com account (free) and it will resize them for you when you upload to the site. Then just post the links to the img's. It's quick and easy.

Copy the IMG link for each picture in your gallery and paste it here, like so:

Excellent pics! - Great focus and color saturation. Wish I could take photos like that!
If you haven't already figured out, you simply post the following IMG Code from Photobucket (which appears to the left of the image in Photobucket) - copy the code and paste it into message editor on this forum. I've added spaces, so you can see the code.

Why would you come into the 5th gen area of this forum and post this?
I surely get it: Be careful when buying the 1st iteration/major update of ANY car. I, like a few others that have owned 4Runners, or Toyotas, or Jap cars in general, know that this is not exactly like getting into a 2010 Jeep Cherokee. Toyota has a pretty strong record of building cars/trucks that tend to last. Sure there may be some bugs.
My question is, why did you take time away from your internet porn and microwave hot pocket to post this?

Emergency tow success!
Was towing gf's boat back from lakehouse with dad's excursion today when the Ford pos decided it wanted to tool out and start smoking out the exhaust along with loss of engine power..(supposedly a crankshaft timing problem?) Anyway, quickest option was for me to get a ride home and go back and rescue the boat with my 4runner. Such a beast. No problems whatsoever towing the X15.
Not sure why the pic won't show up
