Thanks for all the input everybody. All super useful. I think I am going to try and sell it myself. I've taken very good care of it. On the flip side, I saw the used Land Cruiser today. Test drove it. It was great. Boy, did it feel big in comparison. But I guess thats what I want. Now I need to...

What should I expect for a trade-in value on a 2008 limited V8 with 69k miles? I think it's in terrific condition. I'd give it a solid B+. No rust, dings, etc. I'm about to buy a land cruiser...and wondering how much better off I'd do if I selling it myself? They haven't seen my 4runner yet but...

I have a 2008 Limited. JBL and Nav. I hate the Nav. It has an awful UI, display, etc. I use my iPhone for directions anyway. To that end, I'd rather the screen ONLY display audio features, controls, presets. Does anyone know how to KEEP the screen displaying Audio stuff, and not go back to the...

Just took the factory running boards off my 08 limited. Much easier for me to get in and out. Time to sell them. I'll probably ship via UPS. I have no idea what they're worth. Make me an offer. I promise to pack them up well. Wiring, bulbs and connectors are all intact. Not dents or heavy...

What about the Lexus lx570? Im looking online at used ones...2009-2012...and they seem to be cheaper or on par with Land Cruisers. Plus they have vented seats in earlier (older) models. And there are a lot more to chose from. Any opinions out there? Any reason to stay away from the LX570...

Wait a second. "ventilated" seats DOES NOT equal air conditioned???

I am considering a "new" toyota purchase and seeking any advice/opinion. i always find this forums super useful for very real, practical insight. So thank you in advance. Right now I have a 2008 4Runner limited. Had it for 4 years. Bought it used. Drives great. No issues. But I recently moved...

Deactivate the Map/Nav? Is there a way to just de-activate or turn on the nav display? So it just shows radio stations? The sound system aint bad...but the map display UI are awful. And I use my Iphone anyway.

I really want to get an alternate set of rims for my 2008 Limited, but with 19 inches rims, I am not certain what other toyota SUVs or truck have that same size. Ideally I'd like to buy toyota and not after market. I have looked throughout T4R but I haven't seen anything referencing the 19 inch...

Can anyone suggest where to buy a good pair of all black license plate frames? And is there any thread on tips to eliminate the rattle of plates when you close the tailgate? With only 2 screws on the top, its not totally solid...and all my fixes have only been temporary. thanks

Hey folks. I am in the boat. I need a good roof rack attachment for skis and snowboards. I had a thule a few years ago...but I gave up because it was too loud when it was empty on the highway. I drive 2-3 hours each way on the winds to go skiing. That whole times its empty. How are the Fat Cat...

hey Scuba. Quick...and probably a stupid question. I am in the same boat. Hate the NAV on my JBL. How do I set it to not go back to the MAP display? And stay on stereo or phone display. thanks much

What options are out there that do NOT have NAV? just a double din stereo headunit. that works with my steering wheel controls, ipod, bluetooth speaker phone and has sirius. Does that exist? Does a Scion HU offer all of that? Like I said, I am happy to have my NAV separate and suctioned to my...

I just got a 2008 Limited a few months ago...And I havent ever figured out how to use the stereo or the navigation. I hate it. The user interface is awful. The only feature I like is the bluetooth speaker phone and Sirius. Ideally I want to remove it and replace with something simpler. I need...

Im look for the CD or DVD update software for the stock JBL/NAV. I have the 2008 Limited and I don't think it has ever been brought up to date. thanks
