Wow! There are some great questions here in this thread! Have you had the opportunity to take a look at and drive each of the new 4Runners - the Limited, Trail, and the SR5? If so, which is your personal favorite Rutledge and Andy? Which do you feel handles the road better and which do you like...

Maybe they are wanting you to compare it to what they have to offer in the same class of vehicle?

It seems each year Toyota brings us a new 4Runner model, the repairs that once were common are becoming more uncommon. This is great news for 4Runner owners.

Looks like it will hold a pretty solid performance for 4Runner fans. Too bad the dealer will not let you take these out to try climbing the rocks and crossing the creeks! :0)

It looks like Toyota plans to put a few of these cars on the road by 2015. It will be interesting to see how the public views them.

From what I can tell, it is pretty nice - can't wait to get behind the wheel and try it out.

I prefer the second one - it also offers a combination beam for those who like this option.

I like the looks of the chrome hitch cover as well and thirty dollars is really not bad either.

Nice - depending on the color of your 4Runner it would also look nice in a gold tone.

Leasing allows you to use the car for a certain period of time depending on your contract. The monthly lease amount is typically based on the depreciation of the car as well as certain charges. One downfall to leasing is normally you are limited on the number of miles you can put on the vehicle.

The softtex material feels like leather but is more economical. From what I understand, the softtex material is also not animal based which is a plus. Here is some info on this cloth versus leather:

Hood shields help with shielding bugs. They also help with preventing chips in the hood at the location they are put on. They can also help with the air flow giving a little more aerodynamics for the ride. Hood shields can also reduce the cleaning needed to get those darn bugs off the front hood!

I prefer the top one, but it does reduce your gas mileage some. This would be an advantage to using the second one as well as the ability to get to your items more easily.

I think Tacomas offer the ability to get into smaller areas as compared to the Tundra. But, the Tundra offers more power for the owner.

It is nice to see people having some fun in their Toyotas. After all, if you can't have some fun then why have a truck!
