    2017 or Wait For 2018 Purchase??

    I have one dealer at $42,600 saying they can't go any lower. Another is at $41,799 (in redwood...wifey wants beige). The higher dealer said to go with the lower dealer because they are loosing money on the deal. Now I don't know dealers to sell cars to lose money... Can I ask you how you...

    2017 or Wait For 2018 Purchase??

    I have an offer from a dealer for a 17 Blizzard Pearl/Sand Beige Limited (no pull out tray no thrid row) for $42,600. The MSRP is $45,174. I plan on trading a 2014 Sienna XLE van that has 69,000 miles on it. The dealer gave me a trade in price of $19,500 for the van which I think is good. My...

    Traded the T4R for a MDX Advance

    DocMT, I went with the Acura factory hitch which is wired for towing. I have never really been a fan of after market gear namely hitches on new vehicles...IMO.

    Sold my 5th gen. Final Thoughts.

    I started a post a few days ago about trading my SR5 in also. I agree with the cons that you posted. I had a SR5 and never liked the way it handled on the road. Maybe a crossover was more of the direction I needed to go. I had a 3rd gen. T4R that I loved. However, no looking back. I went...

    Traded the T4R for a MDX Advance

    I have to say after having the MDX short of one week, what a sweet ride. Yest it handles like a sports car and yes it is still an SUV. I purchased a SR5 at the time because that was what I could afford. I had a 3rd gen. limited that I needed to replace before putting a lot of money into the...

    Traded the T4R for a MDX Advance

    I have to say I don't post much on this site but I do a lot of reading here. A lot of people seem to have the same feelings about the handling of the 5th Gen. T4R. I bought a SR5 new in March of 2010. I have always been a T4R guy since I owned a 3rd Gen. and put 117,000 miles on it before...

    Call quality when using handsfree/bluetooth

    My wife and I both have iphones. We purchased a 09 Highlander when they first came out for her. When she would call me on the Bluetooth it was like she was talking through a tunnel. Crap. When I got my 5th gen. 4Runner I had the same complaints from others when I used the Bluetooth. Far...

    Does anyone know of a tire dealer in Western PA that takes trades? I would love to trade these Bridgestones for some Michelin's.

    Let's talk factory Bridgestone H/T Tires

    When I got my 5th generation it came with Bridgestone Dueler H/T 684II tires on it. I have also noticed at dealerships that some 5th generations come with Grandtreks. I know that some are saying that the suspension is soft which is what causes the truck to roll when taking turns. I have...

    Slight hesitation when putting into drive?

    I have noticed that when I go from reverse to drive that there is a slight hesitation. When the accelerator is pressed it takes about a second to respond and then the truck lunges forward as if it is making up for lost time. This only happens from reverse to drive and sometimes from park to...

    2000 4runner alignment issue...Help!

    I had an alignment done a few days ago on my 2000 4runner that was slightly pulling to the right when I would let go of the steering wheel. The guy said that he had a hard time with the alignment but was able to get it done. When I got it back there was little if no improvement. I took it...
