    door ding repair?

    Anyone have any experience with DIY door ding repair? I just don't want to pay someone $200 to repair a couple of door dings. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I love my 5th gen but the sheet metal they use on this thing is pretty dang thin, IMO.

    Earthquake effect on buying new 4Runners?

    My prayers are with Japan and especially for those who have lost everything. It is indeed an unimaginable tragedy. Sadly, there is more to come before it is all over. Take it for what it's worth. Having said this, some of you have taken this thread way out of context. It is after all a 4Runner...

    Why 20 inch tires on Ltd?

    I personally like the looks of the 20" rims on the LTD. When I first bought my SR5, I was one of those people who wanted to trade rims with a LTD owner. Having owned my T4R for a few months now, I'm glad that I didn't trade them. I'm happy with the performance on/off the road and in snow. Having...

    Whistling Noise - Front Windshield

    No whistling noise until about 70mph with the AVS deflector. I know it's a little hard to drive 70 when the road conditions are bad. When you get a chance to go 65+mph, can you post if you hear any whistling noise? Sure would appreciate it!

    Whistling Noise - Front Windshield

    The AVS bug deflector was the culprit. Man, I liked that deflector too! Any suggestions on an alternative bug delfector would be appreciated.

    Help, I need a come to Jesus talk...

    When I was shopping for a 5th gen T4R, I knew about the up and coming Ford Explorer. Indeed, the Explorer is a nice SUV with all the goodies. As for me, I don't really care for all of the "niceties" in a SUV, probably because with have a bling SUV already - my wife's family hauler. Sometimes, I...

    Oil Filter

    I just changed the oil a few weeks ago and yes, you just change the element. Besides, the OEM oil filter element only costs around $6 at the dealer.

    $205 Floor Mats? $1,300 Extended Warranty?

    They have to pay for all of their law suits somehow. On a more serious note, I have to give my Toyota dealership alot of credit. They are one of the best dealerships I have ever dealt with, bar none! I just bought a Mercedes and I can't say the same for those arrogant bastages:AK47:.

    Dealer offered me a 2010 today vs a 2011

    On 2010 models, you should be able to get atleast $500 below invoice without haggling. Check out cars.overstock.com; don't type "www". I'd go with a 2010 if you can save $$$; 2010s are identical to 2011, I believe.

    21 mpg now 16 mpg Costco Gas?

    So, I'm not the only one who thinks Costco gas sucks:hello:. When I owned a Infiniti G35, I used to religeously fill it up with Costco gas. After a couple of years, the engine started knocking. It would take 3-5 consecutive fill ups with better quality gas for it to reduce the knocking; the...
