    Downshifting!!!

    another thing: do these "intelligent" transmissions allow you to downshift while still giving the vehicle gas?

    Downshifting!!!

    On my way home today when the freeway was backed up and I'm going around 25-30, I thought I would try and finally try using the manual shifter. And because I read in the manual that you can shift whenver you want - the transmission only shifts when safe - I went all the way down to L - thought I...

Technically Bush wasn't supposed to "push" him but you see it happen all the time without being called...

    Which model did you get: SR5 Sport Edition or Limited

    Got the Sr5> 1) Im a science guy - have always chosen function over looks - so didn't think much of the hood scoop - although I dont mind it 2)Didn't need the XREAS - I tested it; wasn't that big of an improvement. Plus we've had several 4runners (of diff generations) and they all did/felt...

    FM radio reception?

    Im having the same problem! I hear these little blipps/pops with my FM reception. Did any of you find a solution yet? Perhaps these are just defective HUs? They are definitely crappy made-in-thailand fujitsus....I'm thinking of getting mine replaced. I will be sure to post if this accomplishes...
