Meh...4Runner engine has nothing special on the Tacoma

More I drive my runner the more I like it. Interior is a lot nicer then my second gen. Power wise I think the t4r feels stronger. I love my 2nd gen but the t4r is built better. As mentioned above no rattles, no shake, just quality. My trucks pull my boats and haul dead deer, could care less which is better at crawling on rocks.

 

Get the MT Taco - regular key aaaaaaaaaand MT is not available in the 4R.

 

All Lexus’ are based on the Camry from what I recall. ‘Lexus’ is the Japanese word for “Camry with body kit”.

 

Drove the 4Runner about 400 hundred miles today. Not bad, still don't see more power than the Taco but it is definitely quieter. When braking at any speed it likes to bow forward like it's bowing to a Japanese emperor. That got annoying.

Overall I wouldn't mind having one but I'm not trading my truck for one.

 

4 runners are cool, like Jeeps I see all the chicks driving them

 

Ha, nope. No TRD OR access cab with MT. Runner is much better built, quieter, no rattles or squeaks. And 100% Japan designed and built. Besides, I have other rides with MT.

 

The 4Runner is a whole lot heavier than the Tacoma too....

 

2011 rav 4 V6 will blow the doors off of ya’lls Tacoma’s and 4runners. Those things are rocket ships

 

The rear coils seem to push a bit more than leaves do. I added airbags(inside the coils) and the nose dive was dramatically decreased. With no air in the bags and the rear swaybar disconnected it felt like I could stand it up on its nose.

 

If I had to pick one, I wouldn’t have any problem picking the t4r over the Tacoma. My wife loves her’s, I think they’re way better setup in general for offroading from the factory than tacomas are. The only thing they truly lack is outdated tech. I love my tacoma don’t get me wrong on my 3rd one, but the t4r is a jack of all trades.

 

I have a 2017 TRD Tacoma and a 2018 TRD 4runner also had a 2015 Limited 4runner before that. I believe the 4runner feels better built overall and the engine sounds better. The 4runner also has a better back seat and the transmission feels a little more solid with better low end torque. But I love them both.

 

FIFY

 

LAME

 

This is very very true. Tons of 4Runner around here and most are female driven. Rarely see a dude drive one.

 

Well I know where I’m going to meet women if I get divorced: 4Runner Club.

“Hey babe, lets hit the trails and bump uglies”

 

True. My mom drives one.

But, my brother drives this one.

 

love that color. but love my cement taco more

 

Uhhhh no....

 

Apparently your 4Runner would piss itself at the thought of attempting it because of its utter lack of flex.
