    1GRFE slight ping at highway cruising speed.

    Did you ever figure this out? Mine pings very similarly when using anything except premium. Putting premium in immediately eliminates it.

    Gen 6 rear seat fold, dealbreaker?

    As someone who thought they knew everything about their 4Runner, I just learned about this today. I was so confused while seeing it mentioned and sure enough, it’s there. I’d wager most people have no idea it’s there and don’t use it, therefore won’t miss it. I won’t cause I’ve lived without...

    Gas Tank Size?

    GA-F seems like a very compromised platform.

    Official Reveal Thread 2025 6th gen 4Runner

    Being completely honest, I don’t understand how the whole ratio thing works out and it’s something I’ve never bother to learn. Want to at some point just haven’t. So I can’t speak to what may make sense logically based on gearing etc. As for if it’s a harmonic thing, I’d have to go back and...

    I’m fairly certain you can’t get the MT with the hybrid drivetrain. The MT gets a lower output tune as well. It can’t even handle the regular tune of the T24A-FTS.

    I thought I heard it was available in one of the videos I watched. I can’t remember though and I’d have to look back. May have misheard.

    Yeah that seems to be the thing with the GA-F platform, increased length, decreased interior space. It's odd.

    Official Reveal Thread 2025 6th gen 4Runner

    Oil starvation is currently perceived as the issue for the V35A spinning it's bearings. I've been following along with it on the Tundra forums as I've always wanted a Tundra. In the Tundra world there's a user over there who is going to do a tear down of a V35A Type '21 he got his hands on. No...

    Gen 5 or 6 thoughts on this

    The more I’ve thought about it the more it makes sense to me. Look at the Sequoia, it’s always been a Tundra with a full body. Now they’re doing that with the 4Runner, the 4Runner is now a Tacoma with a full body. This kinda makes sense given the Land Cruiser is now it’s own “unique” experience.

    Well, at least it's color matched unlike the Tundra's hahaha

    Have you seen the 14" screen yet in person? In the Tundra, at least, it's actually not that overbearing and is one of the better large screen implementations I've seen. I haven't seen it in a Taco yet but definitely want to. I thought the 14" screen in the Tundra was obnoxious until I saw it in...

    lol my wife saw it and said the front end reminded her of her RAV4. The Grand Highlander also has a hood and headlights that scream 5th gen refresh 4Runner to me.
