    Anyone put a car seat in 3rd row?

    I hear you, I have only done it once or twice as a last minute accommodation, otherwise I always keep them in the middle row.

    Anyone put a car seat in 3rd row?

    I've done it a few times when I absolutely needed to. Since there aren't any latches, I use the seat belt to secure the seat and then buckle in my lil ones with the 5 point harness. Anyone else have a better rec? Once my kids are a bit older and only need booster seats this won't be a...

    2011 SR5 vs 2015 SR5 Premium (Acceleration)

    Hello all! Just wanted to ask if anyone has had the opportunity to drive an older or newer T4R than their own. Over the weekend I drove my buddies 2011 T4R and it seemed to pick up quicker than my '15 SR5. He drove mine and felt that it doesn't accelerate as his does. I have about 2500 miles...

    Slight thump or clunk sound when shifting from R to D

    As long as there is nothing to be concerned about I'm happy. Still saving some money to do a few "cosmetic" mods. Can wait to raise it a bit and slap on some new wheels and tires.

    Slight thump or clunk sound when shifting from R to D

    Hey guys, I have a 2015 SR5 Premium. Since I first purchased it, I have noticed a slight clunk or thump when I pull out of my parking space. The sequence goes like this... I reverse out of the space, then when I shift from R to D and roll forward a foot or two I hear something that sound like...

    2015 SR5 Premium w/3rd Row -search advice?

    I ordered a '15 SR5 Premium with 3rd row from a dealer in Chicqgo and basically got the third row for free. I paid $34,4XX for my 4R. Just be upfront with what you want and what you are willing to pay. I emailed 5 different dealers in Illinois and no one was willing to even offer a counter...

    Smittybilt beaver step!

    I was thinking about sticking on a few felt pads to see if that would tighten the fit a bit.

    Smittybilt beaver step!

    I ordered one that should be arriving today! Just looking for some defense from the idiots who do not know how to park here in the city. Picked up my 2015 SR5 Premium Friday night, went to Costco and the grocery store on Saturday, parked at the far corner of the lot where no cars were. Came...

    Also you guys are saying use TrueCar, that's what I did and I am paying less than what TrueCar is showing. Again, how is this not a good deal? I'm just trying to find out what a good deal would be in your eyes and how you would get it on a new model year car that barely exists in your state.
