    Traction control is a fantastic feature to have and the idea behind it is great. With that said Toyota did a piss poor job with it on these trucks. The problem I have with it is that it doesn't just stop the spinning, it totally cuts power for a good 2-3 seconds. It's very dangerous. Not so...

    How Do I Replace a Thermostat on the V6?

    I've never been concerned about losing a little bit of fluid then just topping it off, but it depends on if the 4runner is hooked to the bottom or top hose. If it is the bottom hose there should be a petcock on your radiator on the bottom and you can just drain down the radator and hoses. I see...

    How Do I Replace a Thermostat on the V6?

    I've haven't done one yet on the v6, but every other vehicle I've ever done is pretty simple. new thermostat/gasket and some basic tools is all you need. Get the thermostat housing off, scrape the surfaces if needed to get a good seal on the gasket and put it back together. A small amount...

    What did you do with your 4runner today?

Pandora control is super nice and really easy, DVD works awesome and sounds fantastic. The one downfall is I have Android and it won't read via...

    Any long term issue with trac off?

    Just as it says. I'm curious if there is ill effects of leaving the trac disable off all the time? I was just curious about it today when I flipped it off going in the snow.

    What did you do with your 4runner today?

    Found an old pock-its i had kicking around. I forgot how awesome the things are. I'm still looking for a permanent mounting location, but I noticed someone else used this. It will do for now.

    What did you do with your 4runner today?

    love it. its nice not having to do the whole "let me try to hold this and the fork and steer with my wrist while trying to not drop any on my lap" thing. Definitely one of the best features of the truck.

    Looking to (maybe) buy

    My 06 has been in western ma its whole life, and my friend that owned it first lived in a very heavily salted part of the mountains of route 2. There is a little bit of surface rusting of the frame, skids and some nuts and bolts, which is expected, but nothing very heavy as of yet. Frame is...
