loaded TE First, find a dealer and agree on a price. Second, have the dealer find (AND SECURE) the 4R you're looking for. Finally, be willing to either pay a little extra delivery charge (say if it's more than a state away) or offer to pick it up. The 4R you want is out there....you might just...

I know that regular is recommended but are there any benefits to using to 89 or 91/93 gas? What do you guys use? I have 2010 TE and acceleration is somewhat important to me.....Thanks to my fellow T4Rs!!!

The sheen is from not applying the RainX properly....First, make sure to apply it to a clean surface (Invisible Glass works great; Windex is terrible as it leaves a residue). Then apply small amounts of RainX, let it dry, and wipe clean until there is no residue. There should be no sheen...

Invisible Glass, RainX, and RainX Windshield Wiper Fluid I don't think "deflectors" will do much in way of preventing bug splatter but I do have a tip for making the aforementioned splatter easier to clean off. First clean the windshield with Invisible Glass and then apply RainX. Also fill up...

Don't be a jerk John John, $1000 under invoice isn't unbelievable....yes it's a great price but entirely possible. You stated yourself the most likely reason a dealer would sell any vehicle at any discount: the major auto manufacturers (i.e., Toyota, GM, and even VW) make their money on...

You should not be paying over invoice for any 2010 car/truck/suv unless it's a GT-R or something in HIGH demand. The TE is an in-demand model (less than 2% of all 4Runners are TEs) and I was able to have my local dealer (Columbus, Ohio) first agree on a price (over $500 under invoice) and search...

Am I an idiot? Removing stock antenna. So I received my Craven antenna today. I tried to remove the stocker by hand and then with my multi tool with no luck. It's righty tighty; lefty loosy right? If so, I gave it a go and it felt like I was going take the base with the antenna. Do I just need...

They are definitely not as smooth as the stock tires but not too bad. I used to be a BFG AT guy and I can confidently say they are smoother and quieter than the BFGs. As for feeling squishy, there's definitely a speed range that the tire isn't the most comfortable (between 50-60MPH). There's a...

Duratrac C load I have C-load Duratracs for my 2010 TE and love them. I went to Discount Tire with the intention to get a set of E-load (like most everyone else on the forums) but the tire guy talked me out of it. If you're not doing any hardcore off-roading and don't need the extra layers of...

What to pay for a Trail Hello! I had to seek out a 2010 Trail and my local dealer (Columbus, Ohio) found one in PA. I got it for around $700 BELOW invoice. Another local dealer offered $500 under. Please keep in mind that these were vehicles my dealer had to find and secure (the latter is the...
