    2019 Electronic problems made me feel unsure about the Taco. Got the new 4Runner today. I think I'm better off. So far I love it.:cheers:

    Toyota dealer was GREAT. They replaced the computer once and then it happen again. Last time I saw it today it was in a dozen pieces. I had to give a little cash because the sticker was higher but still glad I traded. The bad part is I really like the Taco also.

    If I had to chose between the Tacoma Sport SB and the SR5 4Runner ($3500 higher sticker) I would chose the 4Runner. I did like the Tacoma but just had a bunch of problems ,some critical. It's been at the dealer for8 days now and they still don't know what's wrong. The latest guess is one of the several wiring harnesses has a bad wire in the harness. I just didn't want to deal with it anymore. It's like a cheating girl friend. Time to upgrade. :thumbsup:
