Lol. I was so sick of headlights reviews that were just garage door pictures without objective evidence that I just bought a light meter and was about to do this same test tonight.

No. Instead there is an up and down button on the door.

Its normal. 4Runners have weak parking breaks.

I just replaced the stock tires. I have read every AT tire thread on the internet. There doesn't seem to be a clear winner. Maybe 2 years ago it was the Falkens when they were cheap, but they are priced the same as everything else these days. I went with GoodYear Ultraterrains. Reports say...

I wouldn't air down at all for driving on pavement, even with snow.

My 2004 V8 Limited with a small lift and bigger tires got 14 mpg. My 2020 ORP with stock everything gets 14 mpg.

4th gen has a better turning circle. I have to 3 point turn to get into my small driveway now. And yes you will miss the V8.

My 2020 ORP has 4 individual pressure readings and lane departure alert.

How is traction on wet roads after all those miles? My last 2 sets of KO2's were scary after 15k miles, but that was before the sidewall update.

I had KO2s on two vehicles. The first 15k miles or so were great. After that, wet traction got stupidly bad. For my needs, the Cooper AT3 has been great.

Are you sure that the max current is 180A?

I had to trade in my 2004 V8 for a 2020 6. The V8 makes a lot of power down low in the RPM range. The 6 has to downshift anytime it thinks about going anywhere. I hate it.

There is a compass on one of the pages in the instrument cluster. It also tells you the speed limit.

Have you tried it with your current setup? I doubt the laptop will pull more than 100 watts unless its under heavy load.

I liked my 04 V8 Limited much more than my 2020 ORP. Unfortunately, rust got her.
