    The wait for my TRD ORP is real, trying to feed the hype by watching reviews and demonstrations and stuff but I'm realizing there are basically no ads for the 5th gen except this one from 2015.

    I get that these things sell themselves but 11 years on the market and only 1 TV commercial? lol

    There are plenty of reviews and propaganda online specifically YouTube but most of them highlight the "Pro".

    If you want a real challenge find stuff geared towards the SR5. ;)

    Trust me, being an SR5 driver, I've looked. :(

    It's just that 4Runner lends itself so well to ads, these old ones I found are awesome and charming;

    '97


    4th gen had some good one too;

    lol usually dealer ads are really bad but I like this one I found, resonates in a kind of silly/fun way with why people buy these trucks nowadays.

    Your right, now that I think about it, TV advertising has been overrun with ambulance chasing class action attorney ads. :rolleyes:

    Not 4Runner but Tacoma and Tundra are still cool, clever if cheesy ads.
