I would have gone for the Limited '25, and I do like the exterior of that model, based on the videos/photos. I can say I am not a fan of some of the other trim line exteriors though.
I just can't get how 'bad' the interior of the new '25 is! They make it look so cheap, IMO. Who wants a giant 'TOYOTA' advertisement on the passenger dash?!?! That is worse than the people who put their make/model on their WS tint strip! It just looks to plastic and cheap, again, just my opinion.
I will say, after about a week with the new '24 I am beyond happy! I held off because I did not think the tech was 'up-to-date' enough, and I was wrong. This thing has so many options, settings, features, etc.
This is coming from someone who bought one of the first 5th Generations in the Northeast - I put a deposit down on it weeks before it arrived at the dealership and when it did it was the only one within 200 miles. I took it for a spin and signed the papers. I looked at the photos/videos and knew it was the vehicle for me.....the same way I looked at the photos/videos of the '25 and know that is NOT the vehicle for me anymore.
Hopefully Toyota will make the '25 a bit more refined, especially the Limited, for those of us who want a nice interior but still want to be able to do a bit of adventuring now and then.
Being a new Generation I think the 1st, and maybe 2nd year, sales will be strong, but I have a feeling they will fall off quickly after that.
I am curious to see what it looks like after year 3 compared to how the 5th Gen sold....time will tell.

Excellent choice on the last 5th gen Limited in what I think is the best color for that trim. The Pearl with the Redwood interior was my preferred choice when I had my deposit of a 4Runner before I switched over to the GX460 at the last minute.
Congrats.
