    I'm always a skeptic through some rather challenging life's experiences when it comes to new models of any make. I've had some painful experiences with turbo'd engines. A 2020 Honda Civic Si with the 1.5L turbo that "created" oil (oil dilution) from new, even though Honda said they'd fixed that by 2020. They still haven't. First oil change it was up about 1/2" on the dip stick. No solution. Traded it at a loss. A 2021 Mazda CX-30 2.5L turbo that started burning oil at a frightening rate right at 6,700 miles. Same deal there. So, I swore off turbos, at least for a while. Now, I'm sure sure Toyota's done their homework and I hope owners of 2024s won't experience any of that, but I'm not taking the risk. I was going to wait for the 2024 when I was considering a Tacoma about a year ago, but came down on the side of my own comfort level and the proven 3.5L NA engine. We'll see. The 2024 looks to be amazing and I hope it is for those buying one.

    4th gen looks decent.

    Turd gen being the one to earn the name Turd from 1980-2023 doesn’t have to do with who has what truck.

    I actually Love the body style of the 4th gen.

    Not sure about the engine though.turbos arent perfect...plus very few mods/accessories ...im going to wait it out until 2026 so all kinks IF ANY on engine can be worked out,then trade my 22 that has 6,500 miles bought it 1 year ago..so should be around 30,000 come trade time.

    They look better than the Bronco Raptor flares, I could live with the way the BR looks given it's performance.

    Lot of angles and stuff going on inbthat front corner of the Pro. IDK if I like the gloss black trim on the Pro, the TrailHunter gets matte black flares and grille.

    Not if you change the oil 5 times before reaching 10,000 miles.

    The frame will have different dimensions for each model. Do you really think the next 4Runner is going to have a 145" wheelbase?

    Sure, but you'll always have way less usable power, which is 100% less awesome.;)

    The fender flares on every trim of the Bronco are ugly as fuck. With all of the teasing, and time it took to get those things to market, it's a damn shame how ugly they are.
