Hi. In the summer I lost my 4R: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/4th-gen-t4rs/97554-oak-tree-vs-4runner.html
What I am trying to decide is a new Tacoma, loaded w/everything, vs new 4R limited. Price is about $6-8K less for the Tacoma, and the ride is a little stiffer. Any other issues I should think about? My needs can be satisfied by each - lots of on-road driving, winter travel, a little off-roading, don't carry too much stuff ... I assume that, because the 4R is made in Japan that it should have fewer problems, true? My last 4R needed 3 calipers, 3 shocks, and a nav. system replaced, though, but all covered by the Platinum Warranty. I like factory nav. and Bluetooth, and am curious/anxious about Entune.
I'm sure you have opinions and I hope you share them with me. Thanks.
