    Defective Side Door Window Rubber - exterior

    My 2010 SR5’s window rubber has disintegrated on all 5 openable windows. That is one of the only disappointments I’ve had with my truck; well that and the fact that I couldn’t get a small turbo-diesel... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Any Catastrophic Mechanical Failures in High Mileage Trucks?

    Traded in my 3rd gen in 2010 at 225k miles only because I found a 5th gen with 8k miles for a steal. Now have 150k miles of severe abuse (although meticulously maintained abuse) and I think she’s just getting broken in. Only issue I’ve run into (besides that one deer) was the front wheel...

    HEAVIEST load towed with 4Runner

    I drag a 3500 lb boat all over eastern NC and haven't hurt the truck at all. With a camper, because it's like having a large sail behind you, I would put airbags over the rear axle for stability. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Anyone towing around 5,000lbs (max capacity)?

    Another difference which can tip in favor of the V8 4G is the hitch receiver. The 4G V8 has a better weight distributing hitch, whereas the 5G has simply bolted the receiver on the end of the frame rails. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    BFG all terrain 275 70 17 psi?

    I have those exact tires. I contacted Michelin about my previous set of LT tires (M/S2's) and was told to put 50 psi in them. I have found that, depending on cargo weigh, 45-50 psi is ideal for the KO2's for on-road driving. I drop that to 15-20 psi for the off-road adventures. Sent from my...

    Anyone towing around 5,000lbs (max capacity)?

    I just towed approximately 7k pounds and it handled it fine. E-rated LT tires, air bags over rear axle, trailer brakes controller, heavy-duty OME springs. I took it very, very easy and moved slowly and cautiously. I want to figure out how to change my hitch receiver to a weight-distributing...

    5th Gen For Sale/Wanted Thread

    I totally agree with you. The Mrs. Said that "we" need to renovate our kitchen more than "we" need to spend more $$ on my truck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    5th Gen For Sale/Wanted Thread

    Deer Murder & Parts Needed Hope everyone had a good Christmas! Unfortunately I hit a deer while towing my boat home from duck hunting. I was lucky in that I only destroyed my front bumper cover, fog light, turn signal, and driver-side wheel well liner. Does anyone have a gray bumper cover, or...

    BFG All-Terrain T/A KO2 went on sale today

    Love my KO2's. Spent another Saturday at Uwharrie in NC this past weekend and every time I get into a sticky situation (or need to tow something heavy, or drive in snow/ice/mud, etc.) I am impressed with these tires. Couldn't be happier...

    4Runner did its job last night

    I hate it that these things happen... I had the same corner smashed in and it cost me about $4800 to get it back to new. However, I didn't have as much damage as you, and my liftgate was not knocked out of whack...
