Thanks for the recommendations! Part of the reasoning behind the 4Runner is the size of the cargo area. We use it for business and I can fit just enough boxes in it. I'm not so sure about the Lexus, although the quality is what I'm looking for and would prefer.

That red TE is exactly what I'm looking at. Good looking truck! Thanks for your feedback.

I'm SW of Calgary towards K Country. Gods Country. We don't have any neck, back problems to speak of, but are getting older.(Isn't everyone) The lack of lumbar support on the passenger side did catch my eye. Thats the wives side on long trips. I'll try to seek out some of the past comments on...

I am seriously considering grabbing one of the last 2013 Trail Editions in my area. I like the looks of the 2013 over the 2014. How would you folks rate the comfort of the seats on a long trip. Hard to size this up before buying. (Vehicle is also a long way away) We still have the MY 2000 and it...

They look great! That size is hard to find. But they're certainly not skinny. For real world use they're probably the perfect width, even a little wide. I'm using 245 75/16 Duratracs but I'm a little envious. I'd like the extra height.

No, but I haven't a clue what the spec is on it. Do you? There's certainly nothing on the battery. Toyota parts at the dealer are expensive so I didn't even give it a thought. It did last ten years though.

Thanks folks. This series thing is bizarre. A lot of the series 35's are around 8.75' tall. You've obviously found some 8.00"-. It appears you have to get the measurements on every brand to be sure. Or take the tape to the store.

Obviously it sits on, not in the tray. No movement? This would allow a whole assortment of other batteries to be used as long as they are under 8' or so.(less what you lose on the tray height)

I did find finally find that the Optima 34 is almost exactly the same size as the original. Most 34's are too long.

What brand? There doesn't seem to be any consistency in size between brands.

I'd like to replace the battery in my 2000 v6. Any new info out there? What are people using to replace the stock battery- 10"Lx7.75"Hx6.75"W Panasonic. My research shows no other battery that exact size. Height seems to be the biggest issue.(Too tall) Any help appreciated.

I've just put some on myself and love them. 245 C's. Great traction in the snow and fine on ice.

First post. I hope this is the right place for help. I have a 2000 model with the 5spd transmission. The rear door wouldn't latch, so I unbolted the unit on the door, cleaned it up so the latch works freely and put it back on. No problem latching, but the damn door ajar light won't go off...
