Old thread but now did this ever work out for you? I have a brand new 2022 and have the exact same issue… driver door doesn’t seem to close as well as the others. If I give it a minor push to close it almost always does the half latch where it’s closed but not flush. If I swing it harder it...

I just went through this and decided to buy a 2022 now. Here is some of my thinking. 1. I KNOW I like the 5th gen. Maybe I won’t like the 6th gen? Maybe the pricing will be stupid? Who knows. It will probably be great, but we won’t know for a while and I’d rather just have the one I like now...

Have you looked into the Michelin LTX A/T 2? They seem to have a slightly more all terrain design than the Defender but still have great reviews for highway, ride, quiet, good balancing, etc… Also, I am not sure what this is all about, but I noticed what looks like a new Michelin AT tire in...

Well, I mean you are entitled to your opinion, but its not worth much when it comes to vehicle safety and engineering unless you have a P.Eng on your business card :D . I’ll always heed to the brains because I’ve seen vehicles suffer catastrophic tire failure in my previous career and that is...

Where it becomes an issue depends on the load out of your vehicle. For an example an E-rated tire only has enough carrying capacity to equal an OEM 4Runner SL P-spec tire if it is run at 45 PSI or higher (thanks to that site for doing the math). If you run any lower than that you are actually...

Thanks, that’s a great site. It’s crazy how many people don’t know that the PSI specs on the door of the vehicle only apply to the stock spec tires… even tire shops always seem to want to air down LT tires to the P specs on the door. At my work we all have half tons with Goodyear Duratrac or...

Good to know. How would you compare the C KO2s to a P rated tire as far as on road ride/handling?

Ok, that makes total sense. So even though a 113S P tire on paper has a higher load rating than a 112S LT tire, when you mount it on a truck or SUV the load rating for the P tire gets cut back to where it’s actually less. Do you know what the target PSI should be on a C rated tire on a 4Runner...

I have a related question (and since I can’t post my own threads yet) in regards to the load ratings on KO2s… I have a 2022 SR5 on the way. I’ve decided I’m going to throw some winter tires on the stock rims and order TRD rims with some type of AT tire for the rest of the year. I’m not...

I just put a deposit on a 2022 SR5 here in Canada… the salesman let me know a few days later that there is one in the pipe that should supposedly be coming in toward end of October. I just paid MSRP, didn’t bother negotiating on anything other than my trade in vehicle. Between the fact that it...

Perfect! There is a shortage of 4Runners as it is, so if they push a few potential customers to that Ford hype machine, that means I'll have more selection when I get my '22 T4R, lol. I for one am skeptical of the next gen. I like the T4R as is, and most changes to vehicles these days are more...

I see blind spot monitor come up as a deal breaker relatively often in online comments about the 4Runner... can anyone explain to me why its a must have? I just got my first car that actually has it a few months ago... I don't find it all that useful. Doesn't replace a shoulder check, I'd never...

I am curious if there are any Canadian perspectives in here for recent 4Runner purchases... I know our market tends to be a bit different than the US. I want to buy a 4Runner but I am reading these posts from the US side and getting anxiety. I have looked around and the 2021s seem pretty low...
