2016 4Runner TRD Pro

[SurferJacoby]

Do you miss the 2UZ V8?? I love the new 4Runners and am on the fence between it and the GX460.

With the -800+ lb. weight difference between the 4Runner and the 100 Series, I find the 4Runner to be just as responsive. The additional fuel range is spoiling me.

I averaged around 19 mpg over the weekend; whereas the 100 would have averaged 10-12 mpg.

Excellent point!

On to a "gripe" about the TRD Pro package:

It comes from the factory with a "full size; non-matching spare." There's a part of me that says, "Seriously, Toyota? $43,000.00+ and the spare tire doesn't match the upgraded ones that the package is essentially built on?"

However, when I step back and realize that the spare provided is good enough for 99% of these rigs, I can understand.

I for one, can't imagine driving through Baja, Mexico without a matching spare. So, $450 or so later, a new matching TRD wheel and Nitto Tire replaced the Bridgestone.

The original spare will become a second, way back o' beyond spare (although I dig the steel wheel).

I'll do a 5 tire rotation, so the new wheel was fitted with a TPS.

Driving across the desert with a non-matching spare. The Horror

It's probably ocd...but two things I don't skimp on: Tires and Batteries.

Those will make or break a trip in a hurry

Sooooo nice.

 

[RobFord]

Any issue mounting the new wheel? It fit fine where the street spare came out of?

 

[Hltoppr]

No issues with fit.

Thought I would take a look at what you got, nice looking 4runner! Have you messed around with your winch yet? hows that winch mount working out. I am considering the same setup, pelfrey is a short 30 minute drive for me .

 

[Hltoppr]

I have yet to need the winch. Used the a trac, locker and crawl control though! I'm really enjoying the low key look so far.
