I would’ve assumed the same transmission in both, as well as the Land Cruiser. Surprised though how little info I’m pulling up on google to confirm that or show where they’re made. They’re all 8sp, the Tacoma has a AL80 if I read right. But not a lot of info there.

This is a great color! I hope it’ll be available on more than just the trail hunter.

Thanks for sharing, those are great pics!

This could probably be its own fun thread. I thought this would be an easily googleable answer, but with lists like the Ford F-150 & Suburban, google answers aren’t what I mean. Like you, I’d like to know the longest running cars based on a single model (perhaps with refreshes), which might be...

I think it’s worth checking them out both side by side at least & see them in the metal.

https://www.tacoma4g.com/forum/threads/anyone-running-89-or-91-octane.3590/. I thought you could use regular in the Tacoma? Which really does make me wonder which recommendation the 4R might follow. Maybe full time 4WD as you suggest is a contributing factor.

That almost makes sense. Your taxes are high in BC. That’s about what a Trailhunter is here having just seen one advertised. Maybe just under what a LC Premium goes for. Here everything remotely desirable is usually left off the dealer website & put on marketplace for 10K of ADM. I can’t...

Gotta say I really like most all the forums for any make/model this consortium has. Easy to read & use, but they seem to attract a nice audience full of mature discussion too.

I’m curious to see just what the price difference might be & ultimately what the feature differences for that price wind up being. Saying I want it all & going Platinum is easy until you have to pay for it. Then the value of saving a few bucks looks pretty good.

I’m certainly curious to check both out & evaluate from there. Since I don’t need to rush on a decision I can afford to wait until both are available on the lot. I think either would make a fine choice.

Sorry, I realize now the pic isn’t very clear if you haven’t been in one. The button on the bottom right turns off the screen. Is this not something found on other cars? Does the screen have to be on all the time? Or does it dim with other dash lighting how cars used to be? I just don’t...

Front seat & yes I fear you’re right. I’m probably expecting a bit much out of the midsize class, wanting full size truck room. I didn't’ try any of the back seats, the dog would be happy enough riding back there. I think going & test driving a Tacoma is the best bet you’re right. That...

Shopping for a ‘forever’, or at least long term, road trip vehicle. So not surprising the 25 4R came on my radar. So here’s my consideration list, all armchair so far, haven’t experienced anything in person yet, though I need to in order to get a good feel for long distance comfort. Whether...

I read the part where there’s 6” difference in height. If that’s accurate, I still can’t see there being 6” difference in headroom. But maybe?

It may not be all that bad. $5K on top of 67 is 72 & a few bucks for the platinum it might come in around $75K? Say that quick & it almost sounds cheap! But that’s meaningfully less than $83K for the top end LC (discounting the FE), giving them some price differentiation even at the top end.

Anything I’ve seen so far suggests the hybrid battery goes where the 3rd row would be, so it’s an either/or choice. Not known for sure yet of course, but it seems to make sense when you consider the GX can be had with a 3rd row while the LC cannot (at least not in N.America).

Hmm.. I was initially confused thinking his count of 5 was only considering Toyota branded vehicles, but the lead shot shows both a LC & a GX without the 4R of course. Which also eliminates the possibility that he’s considered the GX & LC as one so there’s really… Of course that also discounts...

Man I hope Everest comes on the Platinum. That’d be the one for me!

That would definitely be a major contributor to the difference you’re feeling. I had BOF pickups for most of my life & only in the last 8? Years have gotten into unibody SUVs. That feel you’re describing int he Tacoma I’ve come to determine I prefer. Rear drive alone feels hugely different in...
