Taco to 4runner?

If the 3.5/8speed rumor is true, it will excite people to snatch up all the remaining 4.0 runners with the quickness!

 

I love the engine/drivetrain in the 4Runer MUCH more than my Tacoma.

 

The moment Toyota releases what power train will be in the new 4runners I’ll either dart out the door for a 2019 or break the piggy bank for the 2020

 

I can't have both...ones got to go. And right now, i need the bed more than covered cargo space.

 

I'm kinda in the same boat. I'm trying to talk my wife into taking the 4Runner so we can keep both but she thinks its too big and eats gas. She drives an old Toyota Echo...I feel like for our newborn the 4Runner is a safer vehicle all around.

 

Ditto, night and day difference.

 

So which is better for offroading - taco or 4runner?

 

4Runner because it has a better approach and departure angles.

 

This is the vehicle we have chosen for our family vehicle and it’s great and doesn’t drive big at all. My Japanese(Asian driver reference) wife has no problem driving it around lol. Your wife had the same argument as my wife till she drove it around in fact we just upgraded from a 2011 to a 2019

 

Funny you reference the Asian driver because my wife is half Chinese.

 

Porsche

 

Half Chinese might be worst at driving then full Japanese lol.

 

I tried to negate it as best as I could. I was the one who taught her how to drive thank god.

 

Having both is nice

 

IMO, the T4R seats are much more comfortable than a Tacoma.

 

Why not a used GX? I just got my wife a new car as we are expecting and she had a wrangler (not gonna put my baby in that death trap). We originally looking at the 4runner but for the same money we could get a 1 year old GX with a V8 and much nicer features and fit & finish. To me a used GX is the most undervalued vehicle on the market.

 

If I had to start over again I would buy a 4Runner without the shitty trans/engine tuning toyota screwed the taco with. Then I would supercharge the 4Runner. Just my .02

 

Not to mention shorter wheelbase so belly does not get caught up and drag as much.

 

You’re a fucking idiot.
