I installed the Xenons from XenonDepot with a sealant, have not had condensation problems. Do it!
Any dislikes with your 5th gen?

Because all my other modern vehicles had auto lights, like the 4runner Limited.

2019 SR5 with 980 miles....
The single thing I dislike the most is the super soft front springs. The nose dive is terrible.
Other than that, Every 4Runner should have HID headlights, fog lights, and LED interior lights from the factory.
My wife's base model 2015 Corolla has HID headlights, why does my 2019 4Runner not have them? My old 2014 Mustang GT had LED everything, and HID headlights and fog lights....Ford has this figured out, but not Toyota?

Inebriated AND in an area well lit with streetlights. Did it once or twice years ago, always realized after about 5 min or so.

Power from the engine sucks, it does not help I live at 8,300 ft above sea level. The supercharger kit is way too much money and then you need to run 91 octance fuel. Need a V-8 option, it could use an extra 50-70 hp. And the cup holders are the worst. They don't hold anything well. The cup holders in my 4th gen also sucked. Other that those 2 things I really like my 2016 TRD PRO 4Runner.
balancing wheels
Hate the fact that balancing wheels on 4runners is not trivial and requires congressional approval before the shaking can be fully eliminated :redbrick:. I have had a 2005, 2016 and now 2019 and all have had vibration issues after installing new tires. Multiple trips to the tire shops so much so that you are on a first name basis with the people working there.

The GX470 is a prado with a lexus badge. Is the lexus name really that big of a deal breaker?

This. 4 tries when my tires were new (by 2 different places nonetheless), And 2 tries this last go around after the shaking came back 25k later.

I think it’s because the Prado is available without all the bells and whistles (also a diesel option). I’d prefer to not have a Lexus myself.

True on the options.
Diesel is irrelevant as the 4runner isn't either.
Again that's a brand argument when they are literally the same company. Sounds like being more concerned about how people perceive you based on brand.
Speaking for myself, for MY2005 SR5, it was Grandtreks, for 2016, it was first Flaken ATWs but then the shop replaced with Yokohama Geolander AT015 and finally for 2019 TRDORP, General Grabber ATX P. Could not get them to balance so they ordered 4 replacement ATXs and they are better but shaking still comes and goes. By the way these are mounted on PRO wheels.

2016 Trail 35k miles.
Steering wheel shimmy that comes and goes, seemingly based on the current moon phase. Stock-size Grabbers on Pro wheels.
Occasionally the traction control will kick in aggressively when accelerating lightly up a hill. Usually after transitioning from reverse to drive.
Cruise control is ...interesting... in hilly areas.
Driver seat fabric is wearing alarmingly quick.
I couldn't care less about missing creature comforts. I'm capable of turning a key to start it and turning on the headlights when it gets dark.
I love this damn thing. I intend on passing it along to my 2 year-old when he's driving age.

Two words: oil change.
Changing oil is usually a pleasurable 15-20 minute experience for me… Not so much with this one, with Toyota putting their new fangled oil filter set up behind a skid plate underneath the vehicle.
If it was on top or was a canister that might be OK… But both underneath - blah

I just got my T4R and just wish it had CarPlay. That’s really it.

Had my 19 Off Road almost 2 weeks now. I should've gotten the Premium with the KDSS.
The body roll on this thing through the curves is horrible and I live off a curvy hilly 55mph road. Reminds me of driving Mom's 1990 Buick Park Avenue. Nose dive on braking is something else as well.
I didn't notice the body roll on the 2 test drives.
I also have a 2006 Nissan Frontier that handles the curves way better than this Toyota.
I do like cushy suspension of the OR on bumpy washboard gravel roads. It does suck up the bumps.
My other pet peeve is rocks and gravel hitting the body. Maybe I should've bought that dent protection package?
