My New Trailhunter

She is beautiful. Full of class, sophistication, and brawn. Okay, so I sound like a proud parent . I bought her (I need to name “her” ) a week ago. Her birthday (production date) is May 2025 and just like a proud parent I’m going to force you to look at her pictures. So… this where you say “I’m sorry, I’ve got to go”.

 

Welcome, looks great

Gotta ask though... if you go through the trouble of taking pictures why would you not close the doors first ???

 

LOL. Cuz it’s hotter than Hades here and I wanted to make it quick. Here you go… a not so good pic in my driveway. My drive is short, and steeply graded. After dusting her off and cleaning the windows I drove down the street. By that time my hair was so wet it looked like I had stepped out of the shower. Geez the heat is wearing on me. Triple digits every day with no relief in sight. Her cooled seats are a blessing.

 

Big Congratulations looking real good! Enjoyyyyyyyy……

 

Welcome! Congrats!

 

Welcome to the forum, We now have a Trailhunter owner available to measure and verify dimensions.

 

Really like bronze rims with this color. Good looking.

They didn't give you all weather floor mats with Trailhunter or are they still in the trunk?

 

Welcome to the forum from Wisconsin!

+1 to this!

 

Welcome. Congrats.

 

Welcome to the family!

 

Welcome to the forums and congrats on your new baby!

 

Original poster- how do you like living in st George? We were looking at property in Hurricane.

 

Congrats and Love the exterior color scheme … so is this a Hybrid Model? …

 

The 4Runner: Platinum, Pro & Trailhunter's only come with the hybrid motor.

 

Congrats on the new ride! I love the color.

 

Welcome

 

Thank you! Yes it is a hybrid and my first hybrid. The battery has a 10 yr warranty. If it wasn’t a Toyota with a great warranty I’m pretty sure I would own a gasoline model. Better to stick with what I know. The unknown is always a little intimidating.

 

It’s funny but the first thing I did was to buy a bronze colored license plate holder to match the bronze wheels and tags (whoops, badges) - the lady needed some accessories . I really like the bronze. It’s not something you see on cars.

 

Welcome! Very nice 4R. How do you like it so far?

 

I love it here but shhhh, don’t tell anyone. It is growing too fast. I’m thinking I should close off the gorge if it keeps growing j/k, we’ll sort of kidding lol.

 

It does have all weather mats including the cargo liner (very nice). Everything was still in unopened boxes in the back of the car. The car never made it to the sales floor because I bought it. The interior pic with the sticker on the seat was taken on the lot minutes after the test drive. I pulled the sticker off and set it on the seat. I didn’t want anyone offering to pay more. I got a very good deal with the Costco $500 discount. I have never had such a good experience at any dealership. Very blessed, and it Gods perfect timing. I drove into Vegas expecting to buy a Lexus! Who knew?

 

That’s awesome and it’s very rare to hear someone say that they had a great experience buying a new vehicle these days! … Kudos, to you!

if you don’t mind sharing with us what was the MSRP on it …

Also, thanks for sharing and reminding me about the “Costco” discount.

 

She’s a beaut Clark!

 

Congrats and Welcome

 

I love it. The only thing i would like to change is the noisy snorkel. I thought the snorkel was cool until I took a drive with the windows down and cool music on the JBL’s. I know most of the guys here like the cool noises the snorkel makes but I like my music. The ride is awesome. It doesn’t drive like the truck (Nice GMC Sierra) and it doesn’t ride like the truck. It rides like a Lexus. Of course I could be biased after spending too much money lol. I do like the snorkel as a functioning part of the car. If we get a snow pack in the mountains during the winter the waterfalls are running all around us, but the weird sounding snorkel noise (a wounded animal?) the other 364 days a year… Someone posted a number of fixes for it, which is what brought me to the forum.

 

If you are happy and you like it, that's all it matters. Keep riding.

 

Is there wind noise across the surface of the snorkel, or are you saying you can hear the air induction through the snorkel?

 

Very nice pick up! Do you find that it offers more interior room, more so in the cargo area compared to the 5th gen?

 

I don’t mind. After the 6.75 sales tax and license/registration 75k
