I owned a 04' SR5 (v6) and now have a 14' trail, and I am completely happy that we upgraded. I do think it feels maybe slightly slower off the line, but other than that it seems very similar if not better in most instances. I would attribute this to tranny tuning more than the engine itself.

We recently did a 2000 mile trip to So-Cal and back and got 21.5-22.5 the entire time with 3 adults and 2 kids and a packed full cargo area. I did remove the roof basket, but did not drive very conservatively. Around town it seems we get about 18.

Where did you find the plugs?

I'll chime in here since I asked the question originally. The front piece is pretty simple to remove. 13 clips on the back side that can be accessed from the bottom and after removal of the radiator cover. There is a write up on its removal on here. The rear is another story and it seems...

Really kind of baffles me on the white ones why they didn't do this from the factory as well.
