    Crooked Front Plate - Should I Care How They Fixed It?

    With my last car when I moved it was riveted on and I was able to drill out the rivets and use plugs, but they were symmetrical. Three of them in random places would just look weird. I would have fixed it myself, but I wanted it on them if it went wrong. I accepted that it happened and don’t...

    Dealer Says New Wheels Affected Alignment?

    Yes, they’re TRD Pro wheels. I argued that they’re a Toyota accessory wheel and he switched to saying the tires could cause it. That conversation went in circles until I gave up and went to talk to the sales manager. I could drive to another dealer (and should have) but the alignment is already...

    Crooked Front Plate - Should I Care How They Fixed It?

    I was questioning the alignment reason and the service writer was telling me “our tech explained it but it’s complicated. Let’s go talk to him.” The tech’s explanation was basically “You changed the wheels and tires. We can’t prove the wheels and tires didn’t cause it.” He said Toyota would...

    Crooked Front Plate - Should I Care How They Fixed It?

    After picking up my new 2019 4Runner I noticed that the front plate bracket was about 1/8" higher on one side than the other. I finally took it in a few weeks ago and the service writer and a tech walking by started trying to fix it themselves. They got it straight (to their surprise too) but...

    Dealer Says New Wheels Affected Alignment?

    I picked up a new 2019 SR5 Premium and it would only drive straight with the steering wheel turned slightly to the right. I swapped the wheels with TRD Pro wheels and Falken Wildpeak tires at around 200 miles. I took it to the dealer a few weeks ago with 2K miles on it for the steering issue...

    Dog box options?

    Thanks! My other thought is a Ruff Land with the side door option, so I’ll probably go that route until I decide to spring for the Trans K9.

    Dog box options?

    Does a large Gunner fit in the cargo area with the rear seats up? I made sure to get a 4Runner without the third row or sliding tray to maximize crate options, but I only have one GSD and am hoping to go for something a little less expensive than TransK9. They do look nice though!

    Can you post the dealer? I’m in Oregon and about to pull the trigger on a 2019, but that’s about the same discount as I’m seeing on a 2019.
