    Got to play w/ a Trailblazer SS

    He may have 130 more hp, but he is also going to have a vehicle that is going to squeek and rattle, and need a lot of repairs MUCH sooner than your 4R will. That particular Chevy trailblazer may be fast, but that's all it is, just faster. Other than that, it's still a chevy, and thus JUNK...

    took some pictures today....

    Isn't that a "you must be a redneck" thing? lol I could have sworn Jeff Foxworthy said that. lol You are definately a Toyota fan, and for good reason! As for the 4Runner, I have an '05 Sport V8 SE 4x4 just like you, but I don't have the sunroof. There is just one recommendation that I have...

    Tires

    I don't work for Bridgestone, and nor do I care about them as a company. However, that said, the REVOs are THE BEST tire that I have ever purchased for a truck/SUV. Forget about the fact that the REVOs are AT tires. I live in South Florida and, when it rains (and it does), the REVOs stick to...

    Damn those new camry SE are really nice!

    I really love the new Camrys. It's nice to see that Toyota shed it's conservative looks yet still retain their time and tested reliability and dependability.

    06 V8 Sport - Sulfur smell when back window down?

    I have an '05 V8 Sport 4x4, but I have never had the sulphur smell..knock on wood! I bought it new with 6 miles or so. It now has about 10,000. I guess I'm lucky?

    Bird droppings & a black 4R...

    I bought my first black car last year, a 2005 BMW. I swore that would be the first and last black vehicle that I purchased. When I bought my 4Runner, the dealer tried to sell me a black one. I told him to jump in a lake. I bought it in white.

    Full time 4wd emblem

    I think it looks cool. I may get one myself.

    How low can you go?

    I would not recommend letting your fuel go that low because all of the crud in the bottom of your tank will go through the injectors and potentially cause problems.

    Hello Everyone.. Check out my new 06 Sport

    I also have a White 4R Sport V8, although mine is 4WD. Ditto on the color choice. - I think 4Rs look awesome in white. As for the handling, I totally agree, the new 4Rs have excellent handling and the XREAS on the Sport models allow it to handle much like a car. You may want to read a past...

    Oil change ? & Revo pressure ?

    I changed my oil at 2,000 miles with dyno oil. Then at 4,000 with Mobil 1 synthetic. And then at 10,000 with mobil 1 synthetic. As for the Revos, I have them and have tried all PSIs. 32 gives the softest ride. 40 is too high as it is bouncy. 35 is a good medium. That said, I use 36 to 38...

    Option: Double-decker cargo system

    I have it, and not only do I never use it, but it is actually more of a problem than anything else. Specifically, it adds about 1" to the floor. This may not sound like much, but keep in mind that the new 4Rs have a lower roof, which means that you have less overall height. This is a specific...

    New Member - just purchased 2006 Salsa Red SR5 V6

    I have an '05 Sport V8 in white, and I am very happy with the color. I think4Runners look best in white and silver. Given that I have already owned a silver 4Runner, the only other color that I would have considered was the Red Salsa Pearl, but, at least in '05, that color wasn't available in...

    Anybody here ever try a TRD low temp thermostat?

    I don't see the need for it in a 4Runner. I used to own a Ford T-Bird and when I would pull a trailer, the temp would go sky high. I had a lower temp stat installed, and it was better, but it would still climb high when I pulled a trailer. I used to own a 2000 4R sport with the 3.4l V6. What...

    Ordering tomorrow, need one last question

    I would advise AGAINST getting a sunroof in the 4th Gen 4Runners. The roofs are too low to begin with, so when you have a sunroof, it takes an extra inch of headroom. Sit it a 4R both with and without a sunroof and make your own decision. As for the tires, I definately agree. The dunlops are...

    Gm Vs Toyota

    That's a good joke. But like all jokes, there is a lot of truth to it.:p
