Congratulations! Mine is supposed to be arriving the beginning of next month. How do you like the sound from the speakers, decent radio?

Load range E tires have more side wall plies than say load range C tires. Part of it is due to the fact that a load range E tire is meant to handle more weight and therefore has higher air pressure.

Load E tires do give you extra side wall protection which is useful when off roading.

I'm jealous. My Trailhunter won't get in until at least 5/2. I'll just half to live vicariously through you guys.

For myself, in order to reserve the truck I just had to put a $1,000 dollar deposit down. That along with a verbal agreement was all that I needed. Later on I did go back and get a purchase and sale agreement, just because with the looming tariffs I was nervous and really wanted to lock it down...

Here is a later article from Reuters that mentions what Toyota might do. https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/pre-tariff-cars-us-dealer-lots-buffer-against-price-hikes-2025-04-02/

So if I understand you correctly, you want KO3s that fit a 18" wheel to be offered in two load ratings. Load C for people that mostly use there vehicles on the street, and load E for those that do a lot of off road driving. Do I have that right?

Toyota will not increase the price of there cars despite the tariffs. :) https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/toyota-says-it-will-maintain-operations-despite-us-tariffs-2025-03-31/

How to use the Aux switches can be found starting on page 481 of the owners manual. https://assets.sia.toyota.com/publications/en/om-s/OM35B86U/pdf/OM35B86U.pdf

The 4Runner hybrid has 2 plugs in the engine compartment and 1 under the dash. There is one more but I'm not sure where it is yet. You half to purchase the pigtails separately from Toyota.

I'm running the KO3s on my 5th gen TRD Off-Road and have had good luck with them. I thought that they were going to be noisy but they're really not.

What tires are you running and what would you change to?

I also talked with my dealer yesterday. I have a deposit down on a Trailhunter that is supposed to arrive between 5/3 and 5/21. I was told that as long as it actually arrives between the given dates that they would honor the agreed upon price. So there's hope!

I ordered my Trailhunter with them. I think that they do prevent shopping carts from dinging the door. I don't have the truck yet.

That does bring up a good question. For the people that are running KO3's what load range did you decide to go with?
