It looks good though I could do without a lot of the tech. Great clearance and factory options. The only negative will be the prices I’m sure.
I hope Toyota is watching and taking notes for the inevitable update. |
It’s a better Jeep and a big toy. IMHO
It’s not a competitor to the 4R |

If I was going to piss around on a beach or the the desert on a Sunday then maybe a Bronco. |

This was a big shot at the Jeep Wrangler (no doubt why FCA teased a hemi version yesterday) and the 4Runner basically got caught in the blast. I love the 4R to death but Toyota is basically flat-footed right now. Jeep and Ford are about to start escalating against each other and the best Toyota is giving us is factory LED headlamps. They need to deliver with the 6th Gen... and definitely something better than a warmed over Camry engine with a 6-speed like the Tacoma got. |

Whatever they do with the 6th gen 4R and 300 series LC they better make them more mod friendly. Give me a smooth transmission, proper gear ratios and make it easy to install 35's with little to no modification. On a 5th gen you have to hack, chop, and cut away just to clear 33's. |

I would consider the base 2 door soft top with a manual trans as a great compliment to my 4R. Jeeps still have a bunch of serious problems in their 3rd year of production, so hopefully Ford will learn from them. It's too bad Toyota won't take risks anymore, because they could make a great FJ soft top if they chose to.

I really dig it. I think it looks right. My only gripe is that 4x4 shifter. A knob? GOAT mode really? Tacky.

I like...if not in practice, i like the attempt. it shows ford is actually listening, trying. It means the Off-Road comparo of 2021 will be sort of interesting
4Runners v Bronco v Defender v Wrangler Unlimited v whatever else... seeing the convertables, doors off, big tires, locking diffs, its screaming at Jeep for sure...especially as an 'Merikan car maker. and interior add-ons, and seeing they put IFS on it also, to make it smoother to compete with the T4Rs Is it a direct competitor to the T4Rs, i think so...simply in the category of True Off Road vehicle from the factory. Why they made the 'Sport' is beyond me. The same way Jeep makes those off shoots that are complete pieces of crap (Liberty, Patriot). my reservations...the 'Eco Boost' engines. a simple V6-V8 would suffice. I think Toyota needs to do something in response...V8 the TRD Pros maybe (youve got a 4.6 available to use), a nice remodel even if the under pinnings remain close to the same... i dont know...if i were that smart, i'd start a car company |
$28.5k for the base model.
Going to sell like hotcakes. Sasquatch = 35 inch tires. |
Love it. If they prove reliable, I would gladly swtich to that from 4R.
