Cargo Cover - FREE I sold my 4Runner (booo i know) and still have the Cargo cover, it's in near perfect condition. Free to the first person who picks it up. I'm not interested in shipping as it's rather long and cumbersome. I'm in Ventura, CA. PM me for contact info and address.:yo:

Clearly there is nothing 'official' here so this can be taken with a grain of salt, but to add the little I've heard... I know someone who works at Magnuson Superchargers. They build aftermarket s/c kits, in addition they design and develop s/cs for OEMs such as Toyota. They are one of a couple...

(This is speculation) I think the sensors are only part of a rare package now. My 2012 Limited with Entune has the backup camera but no sensors. I didn't see the sensors on the other Limited nor the SR5 that was on the lot. Perhaps they are going away from the sensors all together?

Last time I was at my dealer back in OR, they the tech told me they were 'now' allowed to disable the warning bells for the seatbelt. Apparently something changed in policies at Toyota, maybe this was years ago or maybe it was months ago, I have no idea. Regardless it sounded like you should be...

This would be why Engineers get such a bad wrap. Try expanding your vocabulary beyond three word sentences and you won't come across so harsh. I've owned three new toyotas in the past ten years and all of them had the same 5K recommendation. It's a pretty reasonable basis to form an opinion on...

ha ha! Well when you've got this forum to follow it's hardly jumping in blindly. It's more of a story of keeping the credit cards IN my wallet after reading the build threads!

Yeah that's why I was asking about it. I would love to say that 50%+ of my driving will be in the rough stuff but I will be lucky to spend one day a week in the dirt. It's primarily my daily driver, but also something I want for some wheeling. Unfortunately I have yet to find any open...

HA! Yeah wouldn't it be nice if plastic would just solve the problem (and not come back to haunt me in 30 days)! Thanks! I absolutly LOVE my T4R... except the wheels are hideous. Either the TRD wheels, or a set of Trail wheels with the GY Duratracks will probably be the first upgrade. By the...

Ha ha! yeah I have read hundreds of posts but being such a nubee I keep pretty quite. This site is really great, but god is it hard on the pocket book. My wish list is currently up to $14K in upgrades... and growing. I have $0 for upgrades at the moment, so just keep on wishing.

Thanks Ducmosta! I suppose it helps when searching for thread to spell it correctly. I came up with very little before posting, obviously that 'a' is kind of important! :cheers:

I have a limited 2012, which obviously came with 'XRES' suspension. I've heard a lot of mention of this on the forum but no explanation of what the difference is with it vs the standard SR5 suspension? FYI I am interested in a 2.5/1.5 lift, but I like the ride quite a bit right now and I am...

I can't tell you anything about the numbers on the analysis, but I can tell you Toyota's recommendation is every 5K. I am at 4,500 miles on my 2012 T4R and my "Maintenance Required" light just popped on. Since you already changed the oil at 1K, I'd say change it at 6K.

Man i love those TRD Wheels RG79! That's a nice setup.

Thanks Brockeverly for creating this thread. I am in the same boat and it's surprising how difficult it can be in searching to find pics of just one detail like the trimmed rocker panels. A general question to those who have cut their rocker panels, how much do you cut off? I've read some...

Just picked up my first T4R on 2/10/12, a Magnetic Grey 2012 Limited with Entune. I LOVE IT! I am long time Toyota fan, but noob to the 4Runner and this forum (obviously). I am currently in Corvallis OR, but will be moving to Ventura, CA in two weeks. Hence the motivation to save on sales tax...
