Good god you're an idiot. They killed the 4.7 because of the recession, gas prices at the time and competing with the other V8 trucks/SUV's. There is a stupid misperception that the V6 is almost as good as the V8, it aint'. Period
Great example of not getting the facts correct, sorry. The V6 has multiple issues the V8 never will including head gaskets and warpage. The V8 makes 271hp and 315 ft/lbs torque vs. 236hp and 266 torque. The mileage is about the same. I bought 3 4Runners with the V8, keeping them forever. A...
Noone let's their engine overheat. The V6's have had HG issues since the 3rd gen. It's an aluminum block, in time they all will warp and blow the HG. That's why this time I went for the V8 with a cast iron block.
