Just to clarify on the V8 AWD issue:
The AWD V8 actually only uses the rear wheels for regular driving unless/until it senses slip in the wheels, at which point it puts it into 4WD, or if you lock the diff and keep it in 4.
Greetings, fellow 4runners!!!
Just joined, and thought I'd say hi to the Manitoba elite. I'm in Winnipeg, and I've got a Meteorite Metallic '07 Sport Edition V8 with a K&N cold air intake, and a Magnaflow catback exhaust system.:D
