The Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro. Will It Rally?

[@alexthornton4450]

I'd love to see a comparison with studded snow tires

[@KesselRunLX]

Try this with a Lexus GX or LX with a full time 4wd transfer case and a V8. You’ll probably like it even more.

[@robertherrmann4823]

Brakes maybe the weak point on the LX.

[@KenLyns]

Center diff may be a liability on this course.

[@lane5686]

Those vehicles also have lower ground clearance

[@accordv6er]

My 4th gen was absolutely fantastic in AWD/high range on snow. Center diff was noticeably better to drive unlocked, reduced understeer significantly, predictable, fun, and comfortable driving 45-50 on some MN snow covered dirt roads. Honestly fantastic

[@roygillotti4615]

If they threw Manual transmissions in these I'd take it over the Tacoma.

[@dawsongranger4940]

If you can track down a manual fj cruiser that’s the closest you’ll get

[@Kill4Time255]

Next gen 4runner will probably come with manual as the new tacoma has one

[@MichaelBrown-wx6zq]

Thats why 3rd gen is best gen baby

[@RidgeRunner4501]

@@Kill4Time255I really doubt it

[@Steelrose000]

I think everybody would Bro 👀😅👌 Imagine if they made a 6 speed Diesel 4Runner like a Hilux...talking bout my dreams 😂

[@ExtremeWassabi]

THIS is the vehicle this ch needed for so long!! Pumped!

[@humanbeing8852]

would love to see an fj cruiser, it’s a beast offroad

[@ianfairbanks1318]

Keep 'em coming! Still waiting for that 2024 impreza "Will it rally" segment.

[@nd4spdbh]

Im going to bet the hard brakes were due to the fuse being pulled that powers the electric boosted master cylinder.

[@accordv6er]

My GXs went out and it's borderline impossible to stop on road. Used handbrake a lot to limp home..

[@mikefoehr235]

So nice to see you back Wyatt. You make this channel great.

[@thewyattknox]

Thanks Mike!

[@johnbowie4869]

@@thewyattknox we love you for sure

[@EJE240]

Thank you, I've been waiting for this video! Please get it back with some winter tires (studless or studded) and again in the Summer

[@samiurrahmanshah1981]

About the transmission, I still maintain the A750F is probably the best transmission you can get in this range of vehicle. I was initially surprised when Wyatt said it didn't come with the newer AC60F 6-speed until I realised it was released in 2009 and is mechanically unchanged since then. And it did not get the newer 2GR-FKS as the 3rd Gen Tacoma did either. Strange positioning on Toyota's part honestly, given the sales volume.

[@boxoffisa]

Man’s having fun in the snow with that truck.

[@hansyang1697]

I would love to see you rallying a Nissan Xterra in the same course.🤣

[@orangecatninja]

a titan swap with the 6 speed manual please

[@rjetta8v]

GX460 and 08-22 Sequoia would do really good. Both have torsen center diffs.

[@tuckerhiggins4336]

Or a limited lol

[@patrickpaterson8785]

Very to cool to see more KZbin channels from NH getting attention!

[@jameshaulenbeek5931]

I'd love to see a Golf R doing this... ... but I don't want to donate mine to the cause 🤣

[@ryan56976]

So there’s only one thing to do - redo the time with some snow tires! Then you can do a day-of comparison of the tires driving up various surfaces! Best series on the Tubes!! Let’s get y’all famous!

[@MichaelBrown-wx6zq]

That's where this channel really lacks. They just rally a car once. They're not even consistent about doing it in the summer and the winter.

[@doughartwell5319]

Dude thank you guys so much!!! I just commented on another vid asking for this vid man hell yea!!!!

[@Teamoneilrally]

You are welcome!

[@LionRunner]

That is so much fun to watch. Wish I was close by to attend to one of the classes and learn how to drive properly.. As for the tires I was surprised the factory Nittos not have 3peak rating. Hence I sold them when new and got myself tires with 3PMSF rating. I didn't want to go full snow tires as temperature fluctuated ALOT here in Denver CO. For example couple of days back its 70F and today max is 28F.

[@bimmerfan729]

That was fun to watch. Reminds me how I would drive my 6sp manual Xterra pro4x haha. Aso, what watch are you wearing? looks nice!

[@thewyattknox]

Hey thanks! The watch is a metal G-Shock GST-B300 something-or-other. My Dad gave it to me last year because watches don't last me very long 😆 so far so good on this one, it's a little beat up but still ticking

[@wesashworth18]

Fantastic tips. Always seems to come just in time too.

[@raycleaningsolutions]

Would like to see you try this again with better tires and maybe tuned suspension

[@weebbruh6975]

It would be interesting to see an AWD Challenger or Charger go through the course, love the vids!

[@poppinpenguin0947]

There’s one of a police charger

[@jlucguerrier]

4Hi tight turns lead to the front axles binding on 4runners. That makes rallying much harder. Try it with the 4Runner Limited that has full time 4WD and there guaranteed to be a world of difference.

[@barsaf9989]

4hi binds on all 4x4 vehicles. Doesn't matter here so much because he's on snow. So much slip

[@SuperPaulmax]

Limited with winter tires is the best trim for snow

[@Battle_Garage]

I had a 4runner TRD for a few years, Iwonder if the low brake pedal comes from disabling the braking assist that applies extra braking force if you step on it too fast. You being a long time taco driver , I cant wait to see your thoughts on the next gen taco. Someone sliding a truck threw cones and rallying it is a better review then a guy cruising down the highway saying the radio doesn't change songs fast enough haha

[@accordv6er]

Please do a GX! Or V8 4th gen 4R. Better center diff in AWD models

[@lthemanl]

Please put snow tires on this thing and do it again!

[@DrWhackerPHD]

These vids are sick do a ram 1500 wanna see how the hemi handles this

[@J.A-CA139]

Never would have thought to see the 4Runner perform like that in the snow, lol!

[@Waveydaveyfr]

Love my 4runner but I use it more for an overlanding rig rather than an off road rally truck.

[@Yoman1971]

Well done! Thks

[@chrissanders541]

man u was driving that like the bandit if ...u had a jump bro . u would be . nice driving

[@user-fv1jn1gw5w]

Would like a video on wyatts daily driver logic.

[@NCbumtown19]

Just go buy an '06 with the 4.7. Has the awd landcruiser transmission. Indestructible.

[@derekisthematrix]

Agreed if you can find one that hasn't completely disintegrated.

[@azaanow2327]

You should try a Nissan armada/patrol/infiniti qx80

[@jaypers232]

Hell of a remote

Wow he needs to replace vin diseal in the next upcoming fast and furious

[@lukeharrison5582]

You love the toyotas! Let's see a will it rally with a rav4 hybrid on snow tires.

[@bamf1321]

Can i drive up amd have you do this with my car

[@johnpooley3]

I would have preferred to see the Limited trim with the torsen center diff

[@Roccopaul73]

Great video brother,what snow tires would you recommend ? Pittsburgh here ,thanks.

[@Teamoneilrally]

There are many great options out there. Here is a video we made several years ago that is still relevant and has useful information to help make a tire decision. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGLKn3qvadGnhdk Also, Wyatt really liked the Bridgestone Blizzaks in the most recent Will It Rally?

[@guitarguymi]

2004 Explorer is very similar. Weak point when sliding those around is the hub bearings. Other than that it's honestly impressive what a 5000 pound suv can do.

[@dominiquerandall8734]

Do a nissan armada please

[@JimJamShimmyShatts]

So when is the Miata episode?

[@raychen2900]

2019 trd pro owner here. I would have to say those Nitto tires are really not that good. Very poor traction compared to dedicated snow tires. How did I find out? I live in Canada.

[@gothops154]

Can you guys do a G-wagon one day? Incredible if you could find a 4x4^2

[@gothops154]

Great review of the 4Runner btw that was an interesting perspective

[@shawnruzek5378]

You keep mentioning tires. What tires are on it?

[@Teamoneilrally]

Nitto terra grappler

[@guyg7160]

Next time try the TRD off road it is sprung better but with a BFG ALL TERRAIN

[@IngmarSolissa]

I'm wondering how a vehicle would do with 1 petrol and 1 E-axle like the Alfa Romeo Tonale.

[@vladxd6652]

try subaru outback wilderness

[@worldclassDiamond]

What’s wrong with the tires ? They’re just not studded ? Is that the issue or is a designated winter tire better?

[@Teamoneilrally]

The tires on the 4Runner this day are more off a summer all terrain tread. It's a harder compound and the tread pattern is meant more for dirt and gravel not snow and ice.

[@iLLuzion1st]

Love these

[@THE-xp3hp]

Nice Video

[@Teamoneilrally]

Thank you

[@ninjaphlap]

Do you air down for these videos? Would it help?

Different conditions basically.

[@Teamoneilrally]

Not yet!

[@ninjaphlap]

Would love to hear tire specs, these came with ko2s right?

[@thomassanio8745]

No but the KO2 would be a WAY better choice. Nitto Terra Grapplers are standard.

[@thomassanio8745]

No but the KO2 would be a WAY better choice. Nitto Terra Grapplers are standard.

[@jsb773]

Those Nitto tires are one of the worst performing all terrain tires on the 4runner. No wonder you didn't have much grip and were sliding around. Next time try the same course with a set of Falken Wildpeak At3's or Yokohama Geolandar AT's.

[@bendino9016]

all at's suck in snow and ice. it would be better with some highway treads with a 3 peak snowflake rating or something like that.

[@adamjensen8112]

Snow is late this year! Halloween was almost a month and a half ago! Edit: The 4.0 V6 in these is so underwhelming. Inefficient, makes low power(Only 270 out of 4.0!?), be I guess it’s reliable.

[@derekisthematrix]

Usually understressing a motor makes it last. That's why I hate all these trucks and SUVs going turbo 4 cyl. Longevity just isn't going to happen.

[@elonsus9747]

It’s really reliable actually. No known issues or flaws to date since its release in 2010. The Dual vvti 1GR’s are different from the single vvti versions.

[@coopkink]

snow/ studded tires on the 4runner should give the Bronco a run for its money. ok yeah it doesn't have a twin turbo motor but it'll be cool to see the difference on this track

[@derekisthematrix]

No turbo is an advantage in my book.

[@TopHatGent]

The fox shocks will also need to be replaced in a year or two. I had three fail just daily driving. Think of them as temporary place holders for whatever better quality brand you choose to replace them with. Also keep an eye on the front differential for pulsing vibrations that go away when 4x4 is turned on. It's the needle bearing and hasn't been included in a recall yet.

[@peterlaing2537]

I love these videos so much

[@leahpritchard4210]

That’s my twin!! 22Pro- I luv my 4R. But those Nittos are only meant for street and dirt. Wanting to replace them once they loose their tread.

IIRC, it will not fully defeat traction control, just mostly. Let's you get a decent amount of spin and rotation though.
