It's not petty, that is a very much liked feature. Especially for dog owners.

Did you ever get it in and what was the conclusion? Also do you have a link for the part?

Thanks for all the help everyone. I have a feeling if the 4runner had better factory rack and cross bars, I probably would have gone with a roof rack. As it stands, the prospect of spending $$$ on aftermarket crossbars and still having only a stated 135lb weight limit for the factory rack (or...

That's exactly the info I'm looking for, thanks. One last concern, the LFD website states "Toyota specifies a maximum load of 135 pounds on factory side rails while moving". That leaves about 90lbs to load it with after the weight of the box, does that concern anyone? From the number of...

How about with the deflector?

For those of you with LFD bars, are they quiet? If not, are they easy enough to take on and off when I do use the box? The LFD bars are definitely the most economical option, and sounds like they will give me the clearance to fit the Motion XL and have ability to open the rear hatch. This...

Thanks. I have a trip next month with 2 kids (one in a carseat) and 2 german shepherds, and think I'm going to need one or the other. If I was sure it would work with the factory crossbars I would probably order the Motion XL (18cu ft) right now, but it seems there are mixed reports on whether...

If you only needed one or the other, which do you prefer the roof box or the hitch box?

I've thought about that but I like the limited wheels. I thought about the '14 Trail wheels which I really like, but my gf doesn't like them as much and she is the one who drives the 4runner most of the time now.

Anybody have experience or opinions re this new tire?

anybody?

Has anyone tried and have comments on the newish Cooper Discoverer SRX in 245/60R20 ? I would like to stick with the OEM size (I know people have gone larger but none of them are recommended for 7.0" wheels by the manufacturers AFAIK), sounds like the options are pretty limited.

How did you like the trail wheels/tires on the limited? Any notable issues/tradeoffs? I have an '10 limited and have always been thinking of swapping to a smaller wheel diameter when it was time for new tires, which is now approaching. I like these '14 TE wheels much better than either the...

Trails look better. I'd like to know where you got them as well.

I would get a brand new limited in blizzard pearl (since that's your color preference) optioned as you want it. Granted I haven't done any research on used 4Runners or their resale value, but compared to buying new those prices seem outrageous. $35k for a Limited w/ 46k miles? A brand new one...
