Has anyone figured out the pinpoint reason on such bad quality camera? Are we still assuming (based on feedback) it's a chip issue of processing the resolution (during covid and the chip shortage?). I want to press my dealer on this, since the truck is still under the 3yr warranty, but want to...

2022 year rear cameras are crap. I can't recall which year got better again, chip issue I think before. There's a thread buried on this. Besides the camera quality issue on screen, rest seems good. I've owned 2015, 2019 and now a 2022. Fit and finish all the same. Solid.

Great for the feedback! Def will need to do airbags, sway and weight distribution. Those were on my shopping list plus a brake controller. Never knew about the hitch height. Good to know.

After the introduction of the land cruiser, just recently, i'm not as confident anymore on a 6th gen 4runner. It's only a little bit more in $ than the 4runner, off road focus, not much bigger than the 4runner. Land cruiser used to be the bigger truck, now sequioa has taken that spot. Is...

2022+ LED headlights. I've owned 2015. 2019 and now a 2022. I'd say 2022 has the better tech with the LED headlights and larger display. The only crappy thing about the 2022 is a poor quality rear camera system. They botched this. My 2015 and 2019 was more clear. TRD Off Road

Hi all, Anyone here tow an enclosed trailer as wide as a 7' trailer, but in Aluminum. I'm not even going to try a steel cause of weight and load after. Based on my research 6x12 wouldn't be a problem, but i'm seeing what the experience is with a 7 foot wide trailer, dual axle is (the extra...

I was in the same place. I also had a Yakima roof basket and it was just very inconvenient and also exposed to the elements. I changed to a Yakima CBX 18 and never turned back. It's the biggest box in length which will allow your trunk door to still open and not overhang the front. It also has...

There's a thread buried deep somewhere someone had identified this common issue and it wasn't actually the suspension but rather maybe a hood bushing or something? It's been quite some time but it was a common issue when going over speed bumps etc... I had the same issue on my 4runner but the...

Yah, the camera pokes up, while the prior versions before MTM was tucked under the 4runner trim on the trunk (protecting it from water spots landing on it). Where I live, it rains very often. The camera is useless for me when it rains with low light. I'm inclined to put a little "hat" on top of...

very interesting, I just had a friend of mine (who is Toyota tech) tell me the 2023 cameras look better but we're still getting mixed reviews here. He's worked on my 2022 many times and says my camera system is awful but the 2023 one he just worked on was much better he said. I wonder if it's...

Ok...2nd gripe besides the quality. The new camera petrudes out now beyond the trim, (before it was tucked unde). Because the camera is now not covered from the top, the second it rains, this camera is useless cause of all the water spots. Night time is also horrendous. I miss my 2019 camera...

beauty of a color. I talked to my dealer here on the west coast in canada, they said they can't even source me a TRD PRO and he said it's pointless for them to put me on a waitlist cause the list is already too long and they aren't expected many to come in. I'm eagerly looking to trade in my...

the dollar might be bad, but what difference does it make if you are living in canada and spending the cash in canada? Dealers are selling that truck used for 65K CAD. I don't think you're taking a big hit at all. These trucks are selling above MSRP used here on the west coast. It's silly...

2015, 2019, 2022 All my 4runners with KDSS squeak. It drove me nuts and still is. On my 2019, I had the bushings replaces under warranty, seemed to take the squeak away but I didn't have that truck too long to see if the squeak would come back. Happens to me on speed bumps, transitional...

No one is expecting 4k quality. We are comparing prior years to current year, and as someone put it, it's dog s... I have a corolla as a rental right now, sadly the corolla camera is better clarity than the 2022 4runner. As someone pointed out, they took a pic and the text showing up is very...
