BRO YOUR VIDEOS ARE HYSTERICAL HAHAAAA You remind me of Joe Raiti fo sho, keep it up!!

[@user-jm5dw3gm8y]

If you get a premium for off roading don’t get predator steps, reduce clearance. If you upgrade tire’s don’t get Nitto tires, bad in rain. Get cameras and KDSS, add rock rails. Upgrade to a aftermarket Fox suspension and you got an excellent off roading vehicle, better than Pro, lower cost.

[@dbunch904]

Nah… spend literally 3 grand more and get a Pro. It’s WAY more worth it. Stock Fox suspension, JBL sound system, DUAL climate control (premium doesn’t even have single climate control), remote start, auto dimming headlights, radar cruise, roof basket, heritage grill, moonroof, 360 camera…. Etc. To add all of that it would be WAY more than 3K. KDSS is cool and all but it’s just more things that can break. Majority of people who have had a KDSS and switched to a Pro will tell you the Pro is better. Just saying.

[@thejdubb43]

The sr5 with 4x4 is all you need to go off roading, non of the mumbo jumbo you guys are talking about

[@BSTatonka]

My nitto ridge grapplers are the best tires I have owned for highway use. They do well in the rain on the highway. Are you saying they do poorly when off-roading when wet? I can definitely see that being the case

[@dbunch904]

Thanks!!

Love my 2022 Off Road Premium, one thing I wish I could have gotten was the seats that come in the SRS premium, the black and gray looks much better I think than the straight black.

[@WarrenHenry]

I love this guy. Wish he was my neighbor Holla!😂 picked up mine in Midnight Black Metallic last week

[@LionRunner]

Absolutely in love with 4Runners. I really wish I had an option not to have moonroof for my Limited and Pro. when I had my TRD ORP I tried to search no KDSS + no moonroof + heated seats. Closest I found was no KDSS + with moonroof + heated seats.

[@flosanchez6095]

Great video 🎉

[@CallMeMrBill]

Test drove one of these the other day and I was surprised at the lack of power this thing has. Had pedal to the floor on the highway on ramp and it struggled to move. Is this normal for these? I thought it would have more pep. Also lack of trunk release from inside and no remote start on key fob was a downer. Is the SR5 Premium a better way to go? I can always upgrade suspension later. Just wanted a daily driver that can also be used for camping (either rooftop unit or inside camping)

[@jxn0010]

Wish premium gave us jbl audio

[@Irishmanbikes]

I'm trying to get my soon to be brother-in-law into either a 2025 4Runner 4x4 or a 2024 Land Cruiser. NICE!!

[@rightlanehog3151]

Jeff, I can see the appeal of this upgraded model but the extra-regular TRD Off-Road is good enough for me.🤩 In the 4Runner the second row armrest does triple duty as a cup holder and ski pass through. Am I correct to believe this is not always the case with other models? 🤔🤔

[@bikerz3857]

$699 for two Oil changes?? Heck no!!

[@JoeBuck-uc3bl]

Why would an oil change cost $350?

[@paulira7407]

Jeff, I have two questions. First, what’s the regional breakdown of off-road pro premium models having the KDSS option on it? I live in south Texas and finding a new one with the KDSS option seems to be extremely difficult. Second, how often does Toyota offer special financing on the 4Runners? I was looking at something in the 36 or even the 48 month range. I saw that the Tundra’s have the 4.99% APR for 60 months. Although 4.99% APR is still too high in my opinion, if this is the last model year of the V6 4Runner ,I would be tempted to pick one up at that rate.

[@sommguy1792]

why do you want kdss?

[@FloridaDeere]

Well while informative and interesting, that was at times painful. Either way, I think that is the exact 4Runner I'd be looking for, I love the vinyl seats in my Bronco and didn't know Toyota had them, so when I ditch the Bronco, this could be my new ride, white exterior aside.

[@sinajetta1746]

Why doesnt this have the side cameras?

[@gideonighodalo3476]

Very Reliable ❤🎉

[@danielrondon2242]

The 4R may be very reliable but it doesn’t justify the price tag of almost $55k + tax/fees for a vehicle from the 2010’s era. Paying a premium for something that should be a given (such as reliability) seems crazy to me. I’d rather wait a couple of years and buy one used for under $40k. Good review

[@brads1545]

You won’t find one used for under 40k in a few years. Look at the used market prices for 4Runners. 📈. That won’t change when they make the model change and scrap the V6. Prices may actually increase on the used market.

[@DJSkandalous]

Introduction of the Gen 6 with 4 Cylinder Turbo will only make the V6 versions more valuable and sought after. Good luck! You might pay more for used V6's in a few years. I got mine and I'll wait until 2027-2029 to trade it in for a new model so they have a couple years to work out the kinks! However if the engine isn't as reliable long term, I may just keep it. Turbos only lasting to 100K miles is a joke

[@jonathanratliff4780]

And yet when the next generation comes out soon with thorough new tech everywhere and cost five grand more people are going to complain about that… Just crazy

[@carlos220026]

but you don't know if it's been abused

[@ryanm4013]

Go buy a Jeep and cry later then

[@Lee62bt]

Next year is when the new models of 4 Runners come out? It will have the Tubo engine right? I think I will wait till they come out. Hopefully, by then interest rates will be down and dealers will have a better supply of vehicles.

[@DJSkandalous]

You should probably wait a few years. First iteration of a new redesign always have issues. Look at the Tacos!

You saying “TRD off-road premium!!!” Lives rent free in my brain 😂

[@accord50]

What size is the tires on the off road premium with the predator package ?

[@busanhyung]

No, there isn't. The GX is the Lexus versions of the LC Prado.

[@ROB-12013]

Is there a lexus version of the 4runner? I haven't noticed any on the road.

[@noahchaney3436]

Yea its called the Lexus GX 460

[@seanmillette4323]

The heritage front grille is the only cool part about the predator package. All of it is extremely over-priced.

[@justahumbledude]

They dont call it predator for nothing....predator pricing lol

[@charby]

Can the TRD Pro roof rack be installed on this one?

[@mikeogden5256]

Jeff! 😊

[@BSTatonka]

I cannot believe the put those side steps on an off road!

[@marcusjensen3409]

That’s what I was thinking. Doesn’t it affect the off roaring and clearance? Won’t those side steps hit obstacles you’re trying to drive over?

[@NightmareNotebook]

What is part time 4WD?

[@T18skyguy]

Part time is rear wheel drive only but you can push a lever or switch and make it 4WD when you want it. Rear wheel drive only saves a bit of fuel, plus I avoid the full time 4WD more maintenance and permanent reduction in gas mileage. Historically, full time 4WD cost you about 1 mpg in extra fuel.

[@tonyz2551]

My premium seats are starting to peel 🥲 now i have to think about buying some seat covers before it gets worse which i didnt want to get cuz its hard to find a good pair of seat covers.

Navagation systems are not needed if it has Android Auto/Apple car play. Not sure why they promote it.

It's an old school concept in vehicles where the tech hasn't been upgraded. On re-vamped Toyotas the map is just there.
