Things you did not know about your 4runner

I doubt my vp9 would fit. [emoji10]So, the "kleenex" holder ... whatever. It also perfectly holds a CompTac kydex paddle holster and an HK P30.

This is a bit of a weird one and I'm not sure if it's been mentioned here yet or not.
I was out and about the other day and parked up when I noticed a dripping coming from the right rear of my T4R. Concerned I was losing fluids or something, I did what most of you would do and dipped my hand in the liquid and smell it to see if I could identify what it was. It had no odor, so I assumed it was water (maybe off the condenser coil of the AC?).
Anyway, when I got back home, I realized a 5 gallon igloo cooler I had in the back had tipped over, draining it's contents (water) all over the rear compartment.
I concluded that the water had drained out of the vehicle (possibly through the jack compartment?) on it's own. This might be normal for all vehicles as far as I know, but it was interesting (and a bit concerning as water that can go out can most certainly come in if crossing creeks) to see the water drain out like that.

Im making this MOD today!!! Im lefthanded, so its a quick reach across to draw.
Pure genius sir. :horn:
This only applies to Limited models which have a push button start. I finally figured out how to turn off the engine, but keep the electronics in accessory mode. When you are ready to turn off the engine, put the transmission in Neutral instead of Park and push the Start/Stop button. Radio will stay on and doors will stay locked.
It's probably in the manual, but I have never seen it.

Neutral or drive will both work. Showed my wife this recently and she lost her mind. She's been putting it in park, turning it off, then waiting a second and hitting the start button again to activate accessories. I'm not sure if it was in the manual or not but I had figured it out accidentally!

On the LCD screen between the tac and speedo you can display the digital picture of the truck that shows what doors are ajar. The angle of the front wheels will turn left or right on the display in conjunction with the ACTUAL angle of the front wheels. Not sure if this was discussed yet...
I've been doing the opposite-- I forget to put it in park (for some reason), then open the door, get various beeps and buzzes. Oh I forgot to put it in park, shift it, close the door, more beeps and buzzes, then discover the start button needs pushed again to turn everything off...
They did the same to me when I bought a new truck in 2010. After a year, I cancelled the service, told them to stop calling, and to stop trying to automatically renew my subscription on my credit card! They've stopped calling, but I still get crap in the mail trying to entice me back.
Both of our cell phone accounts have unlimited data, and we're using the free Pandora service. It has some brief commercials, but far less than FM radio.

The optional roof rails trap and hold on to snow, once it melts and freezes a bit the (now) block of ice slides around between the rails. Annoying but could also scratch up the roof, think I'll move them close together for next winter.

I cancelled and then after the 100tg call from them I said fine, I'll sign back up. They quoted me $199 for the year. I said I'll
Give you $5 a month. They agreed, now I have it again, but a lot cheaper.

Same, paying $5 a month. I set a notification on my phone a week before my subscription runs out (usually very 6 months) to call and talk to customer retention. I tell them either give me the $5 a month deal or cancel. They always give me the deal.

My 2011 has a holder on the bottom of the console lid. Those nearly full size soft pack of tissues fit nicely.

I've experienced this as well, no idea why it does it

Because it's using engine braking to control your speed since cruise control doesn't have the ability to control your brakes to slow you down...
