Future 4Runner

While at the dealer the other day with my 2004 Sport I looked at a 2012 just to see.
While conversing with the salesman I mentioned it would be nice if Toyota would make a 4Runner with a diesel.

He said that is in the works. Apparently BMW and Toyota are woking together on both hybrid and diesel power.

Has anyone else heard this or is it a tale?

Thanks ,Bruce

I'd love a turbo diesel 4runner. LOL, find a nice 7.3 turbo diesel from an F-250, and custom fit it to a 4runner would be the ****.

The Toyota/BMW alliance was only announced on June 29th. I don't think enough time has passed to already have firm plans for anything yet.

Never believe car salesmen...

I don't think you will find BMW engines in our Toyota's. Toyota has worked with a lot of companies on hybrid technology.

If only they would offer the twin turbo 35i engine on some Toyota models!!!

Eh. The 7.3 was and is still an indestructable work of art. I wish they'd bring it back. & its the Ford diesel going into.the new military vehicles. ;)

The 7.3 is powerstrokes is a good diesel engine bit it still is not the best engine, it's clearly a cummins, if the cummins isn't better then why are so many ford owners doing a cummins swap into their ford? I've never herd of a power stroke replacing a cummins in a dodge. Hence ford owners wanting the best diesel engine, the cummins
