Hello from Kentucky

Hello Everyone,

My wife was looking to replace her 2010 Rav and had looked at Highlander, Sienna, etc. I've always loved 4Runners, but she was not particularly interested. I own an '09 Tacoma with 144K miles and am not going to get rid of it. Well, a friend of ours was looking to upgrade her 2015 T4R SR5 (with only 77K miles, super clean, meticulously maintained with records) to a '23 Limited. Long story short, they made us an offer we seriously couldn't refuse so here we are:



Anyhow, this is what I consider the dream combo. And since we bought it a few weeks ago, my wife has really changed her mind. She loves driving it. I had read on Tacomaworld that the interior quality of the 5th gen T4R was better than the 2nd gen (and even 3rd gen) Tacoma, but I was not prepared for how much better it is. It's like driving a tank. No squeaks, rattles, etc. and so smooth. Despite being the same engine (obviously the T4R is a slightly updated 1GR), it is practically silent while driving compared to my Taco.

So yeah, we're happy (especially me...lol) and look forward to many years of 4Runner ownership.

UPDATE: So I did a thing today...


It only took one long road trip in the wife's SR5 for me to realize I had to have a 5th gen for myself and picked one up today. Saved for the last 6 months so I wouldn't have to trade my Taco or have to deal with much of a loan with these current rates. My kids will be driving in a couple years so wanted to keep the Taco for them to drive. I ended up going with a '24 SR5P in Underground and added the black TRD wheels. I had already bought the black badges from another dealer and added those once I got home. I may end up deleting the running boards because I'm not sure how I like the look with everything below the roof blacked.

Just up the BGP from you in Versailles. Judging your affiliation based on your username, I do hope they keep Payne around for at least another season. He was a great floor coach for us and I think he just needs some time to build the program.

 

Good for you, nice upgrade, welcome aboard!

 

A Super welcome aboard!

 

CONGRATS ! AS A KENTUCKY FAN I HOPE YOU ALL KEEP PAYNE TOO!(HA HA) NICE RIDE
