Thanks for the link, Bossman! Now I can continue on this weekend's project. I'll post my findings when I dig into it.

I have the same issues with the rear air suspension not cooperating. I've taken the fuse out, but after reading some of the posts, I'd like to solve the problem. I tried to follow Glen 4x4's advice on cleaning the sensors, but cannot locate them. Does anyone know where to look for these? It...

In the 2010 Tundra, the new 4.6L V8 MPG is 15/20. The V6 for the similar rig is 15/19. (difference is probably due primarily to the 6spd tranny in the V8). Maybe there is hope for a V8.....or maybe a 6spd tranny in the V6?

Thanks for the advice. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Override feature? Forgive my ingorance, but what does the override function do which briandunning spoke of? (Menu > Volume > TopLeft > BottomLeft > TopLeft > BottomLeft). I've got the nav system in my '06 4Runner. Thanks!

Toto - thanks for the great info on the Nav system TSB. Unfortunatly, I am having a tough time obtaining the update disk. The dealers which I have spoken to say that I need to duplicate the problem, or pay $$ for the update disk. It's difficult to duplicate the gps issus, as it shows me in...

After searching the site, I noticed that a lot of 4Runner owners have good things to say about Amsoil. I'm thinking of putting Amsoil synthetic into my V8 diffs, but the Amsoil site does not list SAE 90 viscosity (as recommended in the Toyota manual for the V8). Is there much harm in putting...

Border411 - thanks for offering to help in dealing with the dealers. Here is a question I have on my upcoming potential trade-in for my 02 T4R: Why is there such a difference between nada used car pricing and kelly blue book? KBB says that my rig is worth about $15k in a tade-in, and about...

HI all. I'm getting closer to pulling the trigger on my 4Runner purchase. I've only test driven one with the 17" wheels, and was wondering if there is a noticeable difference among the 16" wheels, 17", and, 18" (if I spring for the limited). Thanks for your imput!

Good luck with your special order, Stickman (and LSUMBA). I've been told that Toyota raises their prices several times a year, so with a special order, you may have to pay the extra $$.....has anyone had any experience with this?

I know that you can get the V6 Limited with the DVD in the Northwest region (Washington, Oregon). Does anyone know if dealers can swapt between regions?

Great Pix!! I'll have to start making the rounds to see one in person. Did you happen to notice the manufacturer of the tires?

I like most of the changes to the '06 4Runner......good thing Toyota is not changing the HP or Torque as it appears they did on the new 06 Tundra. Anyone know why this was done? (It looks like the 05 V8 Tundra was 282 hp/325 Torque, and the 06 is listed as 271 hp and 313 Torque).

I wonder why Toyota has deleted the trailer hitch for 2006 on the V6's? Maybe an option instead?

I just realized that Toyota has a TSB out for the 1999-2002 fog lights, as they may become corroded. I own a 2002, and the fog lights quit working due to corrosion. (before I knew about the TSB, I took it to a dealer, and they wanted $1,200 to replace them!!) My question is whether or not...
