It went sour the minute he started with the insults and name calling! I was tired of it (this has been going on for years) and stood up because there was NO moderators stepping in. Take a good look at how that thread evolved. Koz

ndcent, Thai was put in time out because he was rude and offensive (broke the rules). Just because he didn't agree with someone else’s opinion does not give him the right to insult or call people names. Every member on this site has a right to disagree and express their opposing opinion no...

Yes it does, because the IS350 has staggered wheels. The 4th gen 4Runner had the same full sized alloy spare (so does the GX460). They got cheap on the 5th gen! Koz

7300 lbs. rating is for the V8 2wd (7K for V8 4wd). I'm not sure if you have a trans cooler but that rating is based on having a trans cooler. I highly recommend getting some air bags (and some type of sway and/or WD system) if you plan on towing near the max rating. The ideal setup is the OEM...
