What was your negative equity
My thoughts exactly. Until you actually drive this truck on a truly bad dirt road or trail you have no clue of what makes this suspension so amazing. I could not believe how well it took the bumps and washboards.
As far as an appearance package, yes it has that too. And makes it by far the best looking 4Runner out there. Watch other 4Runner owners turn their heads when you drive by.
And lastly, that guy sounds like someone who either A. can't afford one or B. can't get one. And BTW, a TRD ORP with KDSS is not a whole lot cheaper than a TRDP.

This.. people act like we pay the 5-10k markup when in reality we're just paying MSRP or lower. The ones who are paying the markup probably wouldn't even go near this site
I haven't been going by what the reading says. I calculate it when I purchase my fuel, the old fashioned way. I started out at 18.5, then was able to get up to 19.5. I did a road trip using cruise control and was able to get 20.4. Usually I am doing country roads, city streets and highway driving. I try to be mindful of acceleration and I am enjoying the eco guage. I haven't reset the reading it gives on the screen, it was about 19 the last time I looked. Oh, and I too am stock with my only add-on being step boards.

On a TRDP you're getting those numbers? I've been sitting at 16.8 / 16.9 but granted it's split across local and highway. Mine is pretty much stock also. On a recent road trip to Death Valley I wasn't seeing anything your numbers....maaaybeee 17.5 MPG.

He only cares about Green obviously. What did Cement ever do to the greens out there?!
There was an episode in my childhood that involved elephants and clowns.
Yeah, I had another TRDpro owner that was local ask what I was getting early on. I have just over 2000 miles on mine already. He was also in the 17.5 range. He suggested that he check the inflation of his tires to make sure they were good. I didn't hear back if it was affecting it. I am in Washington and so far haven't had the need to run air-conditioning, only windshield wipers. If your weather has you using the air, it could be dropping your mileage a bit. I really don't know why. Like I said before, I have been trying to be mindful of acceleration and deceleration. I like the eco bar that tells me how I'm driving. I drive some windy roads too with hills. I was elated to see that after my most recent road trip, first time using cruise control that I was able to get the higher mileage. I am using the 87 octane as recommended.

I have been running Nitto RG 285/70/17 with the Toytec 2 inch lift kit for about 7K miles now and I am getting 17.0 MPG.
Perhaps not apples to apples, but thought I'd share.

Had the same MPG throughout winter when not using the A/C. I throw in 91 but it's worth trying 87 for giggles.

I'm guessing that dark green or the lighter blue that was on the FJ's.. with maybe silver as the other new one and then of course white. Seems like that white is standard every year, with a special color, and then a regular rotating color..silver and nautical blue are the only ones that haven't been used yet for the rotating color.

It doesn't change the fact that you were here citing the cement as a cool color and then flip flopped to calling it ugly. You are at the very least a fraud, and your insults and opinions aren't welcomed here.
No one cares what car you did or didn't buy, so why undermine our purchases... are you salty that you can't afford one or couldn't get one?
Hopefully a mod can clean up this thread a bit. This is supposed to be people having and sharing their fun with the TRD Pro. And not about some troll justifying to the choir as to why he can't get one.
