I'm taking my 14 4Runner SR5 back to the stealership because they can't get my steering perfectly straight. I too am experiencing the poor handling and blowing around on the freeway. I've read about tweaking the alignment helps with these issues. I'm posting my latest alignment printout below in hopes you guys could look at it and suggest any changes while I have it in for the 3rd trying to get the steering wheel perfect. Thanks.

No reason your stock 2014 should be difficult to get within spec with a straight steering wheel. Your probably not too far off on the lazy tech theory.
Bring it back, have them do it again and drive it with the tech in the truck after they are done.

Your specs aren't bad, they could probably get caster closer together if they worked at it a bit. The steering wheel off center is independent of the eccentric adjusters, that is set with the tie rods, last. They either forgot to do it, or were a couple of turns off.
As far as poor handling and being blown around, you aren't going to get much better than you have now by alignment. Realize it is a high profile vehicle with lots of ground clearance, it will be affected by wind more than most other vehicles.
