Glossary of 4Runner Terms
 
Glossary of 4Runner Terms
So for the new 4Runner owners and/or people who are new to this site is there a post that lists commonly used terms/acronyms or phrases in posts?
Reading through post there are acronyms that a casual user might not be sure of their meaning. One I have seen a lot is "TE", I am guessing this means Trail Edition but honestly I do not know for certain. So I was just wondering if there is a post that lists a lot of these terms that new folks to the sight could refer to if they see something and wanted to verify what the think it means is the meaning commonly attributed to the term or phrases here.
Just curious thanks

This is a good post, I had to google KDSS - Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System

After some reading, I understand it a bit more now.

Here's a good article on KDSS: Toyota 4Runner TRD Off-Road with KDSS Suspension Deep Dive

Seems like a non-vaporware version of: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KPYIaks1UY

But also not electromagnetic
