    "And lastly, ask yourself "why do I want one." If it's for looks, if it's for Instagram, save yourself a lot of pain and grow up. If you just want a tough reliable vehicle to travel the western hemisphere in, just buy any used 4Runner from any Toyota dealership anywhere in America and be done...

    Transit "software update", but not a recall.

    If that's the thread you are referring to, I am not reading it the same way. Sounds like 2 guys who have perceived a negative impact versus 2 guys who said no impact. And probably hundreds more who don't post because they did not notice a change...
