i'd tow it in a heartbeat, and my 03 V8 is rated for 5000lbs as well, since we both have the same smaller hitch from the factory. you could also buy a 7500lb rated Curt aftermarket hitch if you're worried the tongue weight will be over 500lbs. if there is too much rear sag, you can also...

Apparently Toyota is putting more stock into what CR says than ya'll are. It's probably a PR issue and them trying to repair their already tarnished reputation in the media, but they halted sales of the GX460 today. Lexus GX 460 rated 'do not buy,' Toyota halts sale - Yahoo! News

they won't fit. 4runners with the 3rd row seats have a completely different rear cargo setup than those without. the sequoia is completely different from both the 4runner with the 3rd row, and without the 3rd row.

some people feel its better off-road because you can get a lot more articulation with a solid axle than you can with IFS. but there are trade-offs. handling is much worse with a solid axle. unless you're doing extreme rock crawling, a properly set-up IFS will get you where you need to go...

its still considered a diff. and your joke sucked.

on-road performance is my old 2005 zx-10r, 2.1 0-60.

my dash is cracked to hell as well. best bet is looking around at junkyards, but good luck finding one totaled that hasn't had the airbag deployed. that's the problem i've been having. every dash i see has the passenger side of the dash destroyed because of the airbags.

lmao...that's a load of bs. the only reason the lucas oil lessens the noise is because it's thick as hell and doesn't run off as fast as normal weight oil will.

cool pics! but you need to either clean your sensor, or your lens.

you're right. it's riveted to the body. the only way to realign it is to bend the hinge.

i thought you were BSing when you said you had 150+ coleman lanterns, but I can see you have at least that many! holy crap! that is one hell of a collection!

gaskets fail. it's not a big issue.

it doesn't quite work that way. yes, metal is a better conductor of heat (cold is simply a lack of heat), but the only reason that cabela cooler is lined with steel is for strength. the styrofoam insulation is what is responsible for its ability to keep the heat out. if you wanted to build a...

what makes you trust his opinion over the toyota dealers?
