IMO I'd skip the TEP and just get a TE, if the cloth seats is what you don't like most dealers will install Katskin leather seats for about 1500-2k. Which is actual leather and better quality than stock leather seats in other brands. That should narrow the price differences a little more.

The big difference here is the speed at which the driver is taking turns and putting the wheels in a bind. Not sure about everyone else but I don't wheel at highway speeds. Sure you can do turns in 4wd and it shouldn't hurt anything, however repeated abuse can cause damage, and I for one didn't...

I bought it new last march

Not sure when you are planning your trip to CO, but I would recommend the route avoiding Kansas. its a long very boring ride through that state, and through Nebraska has more fuel stops. BTW I love the look and all the pictures. I'm jealous

This may be a dumb question and I haven't seen anything on this with the 5th gens, but to the guys who are lifting 3" is anyone changing brake lines? I'm not as familiar with 4Runner lifts.

You know.... tires are an easy fix right.... and they wear out.... then you get more I drive in the snow with stock tires, does just fine

Statistically unlikely that during those 10 fill ups you only received TT gas once. DON'T quote me I don't have any citations to back me up but I highly doubt it gives you 4-5 mpg improvement. Texas777 may know. You could have had the wind to your back or a lack of head wind. Not sure where at...

Not this one, only use seafoam on my carbed truck, bikes, and boat. Bong water is good for one thing.... drinking:barf: Texas thank you and good job with the info and taking the time to post it, the majority of stations people go to have the "top tier" gas anyway And the ones that dont, there...

Honestly with modern oils engineered as well as they are, you really aren't benefiting by running synthetic unless you want to push the limits of an oil change. Personally I would recommend running conventional oil and changing more often. Just my 2 cents, but I have used a company to analyze...

Take it for what you will engineer, if people want cold fact then they shouldn't be looking on a online forum for answers or validation for their actions. Instead they should search on their own and make their own decision. We can look up studies all day long and end up more confused than when...

Blitz.... you are correct, the differences are so small its not worth chasing the "brand gas" unless you are building a race engine, your brand gas doesnt make a hill of beans.

I agree, I wouldn't run it consistantly in a modern engine, but occasional use isnt going to do anything Destructive to the engine.

Maybe it was your lack of knowledge about a product as common as brake cleaner In the automotive world. And if you dont know what it does, then dont say anything! Even if the OP poured the whole can in tell me without making assumptions what it would do? Im so sorry for hurting your feelers...
