4runner TRD Pro

Looks nice I just picked my Cement up on Thursday.... I am in Canada and Love it.... I find it so weird that the US model does nt have a sunroof or mirror lights... I dont think you can buy a 4Runner in Canada that does nt have those features...




Sooo happy and excited that mine just arrived today. Me and my wife can't stop walking into the garage staring at it. Waited about 2-3 months for it but well worth the wait. I will try and post better pics.
 
I've spent this entire week doing nothing but city driving. No real traffic, but stopping at lights here and there. I've done my absolute best to use cruise control, accelerate very slowly from red lights, and coast in neutral as much as possible. The end result? I went from 12.5-13.0mpg up to 14.5mpg.

I'm about to leave for the mountains for the weekend, which is typically a 500-mile roundtrip. In each of my two previous roundtrips I have averaged 17.5mpg. I'm going to apply the same very mpg-friendly driving style to this trip and see if I can get the 20mpg you guys are getting. I need to determine if it's my driving style or my 275 KO2s causing me to get low mpg compared to those getting 20+.

End result: 17.6mpg, but I did have to do a lot of pedal mashing to pass people on the mountain roads.
 
Has anyone already thrown the headlights or taillights in the over and blacked them out? Anyone thinking about doing it?
I did on my Subaru, but from what I've read our 4runner headlights are really difficult to take apart that way. The retrofit source will do it for a fee. That's the route I would go, but if you're brave enough, go for it!

Are there any dealership salesmen on here that would be able to look up the VIN on my incoming TRD PRO to see where it is in the dealer daily tracking? Unfortunately, my dealer seems like an idiot and he says he won't have any updates until the truck literally pulls up to drop the vehicle off. I'm starting to question whether or not it is actually at port.... Thanks in advance for anyone that can help.

i had the same issue. thankfully it updated on their website to 'incoming' so i knew roughly when to expect it. i followed that up with hourly text messages and calls, plus a few stops when i was in the neighborhood so i could be there when it got delivered.
probably so used to selling camrys and other crap that when something like a pro comes along they don't realize its a different customer than what they typically deal with.

Not sure why but when i picked up my TRD same issue. They said they had it coming monday, so i booked a flight to pick it up on saturday. i kept calling everyday to see if it arrived. It finally arrived.. thursday.
 
Some dealers were very professional and were able to give me VIN. Others didn't have a damn clue. I forgot the name of the system to look it up in, but perhaps if you brought it up they could look for it.
 
So I'm noticing when I let go of the steering wheel, my TRD has a slight pull to the right. Anyone have this issue? It's not so bad for me to be bothered by it, but it is something I'd like corrected eventually.

Any solutions?

I had that issue, took it to dealer. They just did an alignment to fix issue.

I've noticed that too, and 1,500 miles in I don't believe I've hit any curbs to mess with alignment

How much "pull" are we talking about? Most roads are crowned for drainage, some pretty aggressively, so the center is higher than the right edge of the lane. Could that be what you're noticing?

I had the same issue from the time I picked it up. After about 900 miles I took it to the dealer and they aligned it. The toe was specifically out of spec.

It's better now, but still definitely pulls to the right. When I hit any sort of bump or rough terrain, the steering wheel wants to pull hard right. I'm at ~3,000 miles now, so I'm going to take it in again and have them adjust it.

Edit: I forgot to mention I tested it in a flat parking lot and it still pulls right.
 
Question concerning LED Headlights

Hello all,

I am new to the forum. I have a 2016 TRD Pro, in white. I was looking at upgrading the OEM headlights to LED lights.

Any recommendations from the forum concerning type of LED light to upgrade to? What is the most reliable? The auto shops around where I live recommend Putco, Oracle and Race Sport LED lights.

Thanks for any help anybody can provide.

David

I went with HIDs Phillips 4k Lumen over LEDs, from XenonDepot. Easy install.
