    4th Gen power (and feel) versus 5th Gen

    Thanks guys. Really appreciate the feedback. I was a little concerned but also thinking there is no way there is something broken on this car! On top of that, she and I have been trading cars while mine had tires replaced, then wheel repair (due to aforementioned tire replacement) and to the...

    4th Gen power (and feel) versus 5th Gen

    Hi group, Back in May we traded my wife's 2005 SR5 with 175K on it for a new 2018 Limited. She loves it and I do too. The only concern I have with the vehicle is it feels choked. I'll explain. From idle up through 40 to 50 mph, the truck feels as though it is breathing through a straw. Even at...

    Buying an '18 Limited for my wife

    Anyone out there have the aftermarket chrome running boards with the mud guards? I am starting to have concerns with all of that running gear hanging low. It appears the pictures I see online the running boards hang pretty low. My days of taking her vehicle up into the hard mountains are over...

    Buying an '18 Limited for my wife

    Ok fellas, here is where I am at. Got it down to $5632 off MSRP or 11.7% off. This is always the fun part....the paying for it, not so much. Pretty sure my local dealer will not be able to touch this. Before I pull the trigger, does anyone with 3rd row seating regret getting them? I know they...

    Buying an '18 Limited for my wife

    Philsey-no trade. Not interested in anyone telling me how little the current SR5 is worth. It has a bump and bruise here and there and it may end up going to my 16 year old son as his first car. Or, it may get detailed and shined up with a for sale sign at the end of the driveway. I hadn't...

    Buying an '18 Limited for my wife

    Thanks for the feedback from the group. We went to the dealer yesterday and she drove several, including a Limited with 3rd row. While I like the ability to have room for 7, I am really surprised at how much cargo room you lose with that option. It also seemed like the Limited was a little...

    Buying an '18 Limited for my wife

    Hey guys, New to the forum and hoping to get some advice. First 2 4Runners were a 1996 SR5 and current one is a 2005 SR5. I have been watching dealerships and websites anticipating a model change and hoping to see that the 6th generation would be coming out. Doesn't seem to be the case and I...
