We just ordered our 2012 T4R Limited! It's coming off the ship Monday. Oddly, it's $200 cheaper than the 2011. The EnTune was the selling point over the 2011 for us. Still no power liftgate (grrr). No multi CD either, which I would never use. I have my iPod Classic for that.

Oh, and it's in for it's 90,000 service today at 119,000. Got a bit behind, but runs like a charm and regularly hauls a trailer!

2005 Toyota 4Runner Limited V8 - 119,000.

Yup...not a dude! :D

Yeah, I really took a chance on the last remaining snow pile in eastern PA. The drop off was sick. ;): And you are right, there was salt in there! But it's rock salt, so really, this is almost like traversing some mountain road...you know, since it had rocks in it. :lmao:

Nice pics! I was wondering the same thing. I have the running boards, and I think they look cool, but they are SO dumb! I wear heels to work, so there is no way to get a foot on them and I find myself jumping out the of truck to avoid them. Ultimately, I get salt on the backs of my pants...it's...

OK, here's the poser photo of the day. I got a little crazy in the Nordstrom Rack parking lot. LOL

I paid 18,500 w/61k miles for my '05 in October. I would say it's a very fair deal. But don't hesitate to work 'em down . Throw $16,500 on the table with a "take it or leave" it attitude. And do that on the LAST DAY of the month. Especially this month, which is short, so less $$$ for their...

Hi Charlie, Thanks for adding your experience. Glad to hear Toyota reliability holds up to towing! I am planning on getting my outfit weighed to see where I fall in that area. I really have no idea. But everything in the trailer, for the most part, is packed into storage bins with the bulk of...

My 2

Oh. Yeah. Totally agree. Didn't know about that feature when I was being tailed at 80 mph on the turnpike. I decided to give my usual "tap of the brakes" as a warning and HOLY HANNA!:bugeye: I won't EVER do THAT again! 80 to 0 is NOT FUN!

Used '05, purchased on Halloween '08 while the Phils were on parade in the city. I *always* buy used. I drive too far daily (60 mi) and on the weekends to dog shows, so why pay for the depreciation when someone else already has for me? :D Dealer wanted 19,900, and negotiatied over the phone to...

HA! That's funny. I did something similar on a snow bank in our parking lot at work. Well, no one else wanted to park there, so I did!

I think my definition of posing is owning any SUV that is outfitted with lifts, safari bars, spot lights, etc but stay 100% on pavement, 100% of the time. I bought my 4R to replace the Ram when it goes off lease. We're not sure if we're going to keep it for fire calls(yes, we live in that PA...

As far as things falling out of the tailgate...has anyone tried the cargo net? Works fine for me and nothing falls out. Plus, I keep my reusable grocery bags in it when they're not in use.
