    T4R ORP if I didn’t hunt and put bloody things in the back of my Tacoma I think I would get one myself.

    I'm starting the hunt for one for my wife too so she can join the Toyo club! Good looking 4R.

    I’ve owned both, and the 4 Runner is definitely superior in every way.

    Tacoma’s are great because they’re so dependable the same as 4 Runners. We take that dependability for granted but it is a big part of off road capability. In Canada, there are some great places to go, but you need to be able to return as well. Abandoning a vehicle for weeks or getting towed to a dealer is not an option. We think of off road capability in terms of suspensions, tires, cool gear etc but not breaking down is a pretty big attribute. Think about the new Defender as an example. If you took it somewhere remote and it broke down what would you do? And, LRs are notoriously unreliable.

    True! I owned 2 gray Toyotas, and then a red Tacoma for 2 years. I didn't plan on coming back to gray, but it's what the dealer had. I'm really glad I went gray! It just looks good with the wheel and everything being black.
