4th Gen Tacoma (2024+)

Did someone call the 3.5 unreliable?

 

No, I was just screwing around since there has been so much 3.5 is awful talk for the last um...8 years..lol

 

How many years or decades has it been since there was a manual 4Runner? Why would they change now?

 

Down here in Merica we think all Canadians are like Terrance and Phillip.

 

It can be awful and reliable at the same time

 

People want it ...4th gen was the last I think

 

Because they can...if (still not confirmed) the 4 runner is based off the Tacoma...like the last time it had a manual....The 4 runner has been based off the Prado for a long time...now the LC is based Prado based...it would only make sense that the 4runner is Tacoma based to keep the price in line where they need it to be. I would expect most of the options the Tacoma has to also be available in the 4 runner in that case. (well..maybe not those goofy pro seats)

 

While I agree with you, the Bronco came out with a manual and had a surprisingly high take rate. Not that Toyota cares that much what Ford is succeeding at but it wouldn’t be a terrible idea. I could see a 5-7% take rate on a MT 4Runner.

 

Depends on what they do with the 4 runner. If it becomes an off road beast then I see higher

 

There has been this render floating around. Highly doubt it will come with a removable top. If Toyota can’t get the Tacoma access cab to pass crash regs, highly unlikely it will be a convertible.

 

Thats one of the better looking renders I've seen of it.

 

How many people? Like 7?

 

Yeah not bad, they got the top about right.

Had an ‘85, top was off only a handful of times. It was a pain in the ass to get off, trim pieces and a bunch of bolts. Had hoist in the garage, so that wasn’t too terrible. Now with the modular tops, might be ok.

My first Toyota, and back when Downey Off-Road was a thing, had one of their 3” lifts on it, plus header and clutch. Paid $6000 for it.

 

2 decades and a hair.

3rd Gen 2002 was the last.

 

Thanks , I was totally guessing lol

 

Welcome! I figured as much! Lol!

 

Looks like a warthog.

 

So an update on this , the body shop I went to as per what my dealership wanted is recommending the whole box gets replaced.....im scared .
Is there a thread for this kind of think...curious to read horror stories where stealerships screw people around

 

Wuuuuuuuuuuuut!? That is some funny (but sad scammy) shit right there.

All to install a washer?
