2025 6th gen 4Runner Official Reveal Thread

I think they may have forgotten the word “redesigned.” LOL



On another note, nothing says $60,000+ vehicle like a hood support rod.

Have to admit that the formfitting snorkel is pretty cool on the Trailhunter.

 

I agree with you and sadly all the paid puppet spin doctors have come out of the woodwork now to tell you what you should buy. Cracks me up. I have seen only one guy on YouTube that seems to really speaks his mind - and I guess he is not on anyone's payroll. 2 minute rant ends...

 

from what i remember of my 2004 v8 4runner, the rear passenger doors had a over fender extension on the doors leading edge that made the door look samller than it was. it was a huge over fender cover compared to my 2014 4runner.

and yes i know i had a very rare v8 4runner with the fake oem push bar. never once cracked it though.

whats highlighted in yellow actually moves with the door.

 

I saw that as well, why in the world would you remove a feature the previous Gen had besides trying to save themselves money while charging the consumer more. Looks like someone will be making money selling hood strut kits now.

 

seeing everything revealed, since my towing and hauling days are behind me, time to make a trip to ye ole dealership and trade in my F250 for a 24 SR5 or ORP

 

Get it while you still can. I think they are going to go fast!

 

As I watch more of the videos, I'm actually starting to think it's gonna be okay. Expedition Overland had a decent video on it with some good info from Kurt Williams. I would like to check one out, albeit not with intent to buy.

 

Did they list wheel sizes / specs? I like the bronze finish style on that green runner. Slap a set of those on my dinosaur 5th gen

 

OMG no one addressed this. A locking/unlocking gas cap hatch on the 6th gen or still wide open ?

 

Look at the size of the window for the rear door, it looks much smaller.

On a side note, I purchased my last 23 Pro from Minot Toyota. Great bunch of people there!

 

All iconic legends are worth more after they die. Elvis, Prince, Michael Jackson, 5th gen, ETC...

 

Yep, if I had the money I'd get a few more new 5th Gens for sure.

 

Thanks for the wheel info noodles! Not sure Id want to go to 18s.

 

Is it to soon to start the 7th gen speculation thread?

 

He does need a spell checker though lol...

All the channels/vloggers/rig builders/parts sellersare going to be all aboard as it generates revenue for them. It's just business. What will be more telling of the 6th Gen will be buyers with no incentive to sugar coat anything aside from their pride of purchase.

 

I remember when I picked up my 2006 Limited Tundra with 17s the first thing I did was remove the running boards and ditch the 17s for 16s to get more sidewall for off-roading. There was only one set of 16 inch wheels I found that just barely cleared calipers.

it will be interesting to see if going down to 17s will be possible with the 6 Gen brake system for those with similar concerns/needs.

 

Does anyone know the potential max length of the cargo area if the rear seated were to be put down? I'm trying to figure out if I could fully lie down in the back

 

I don't know the length but it looks like it may not bee as deep as the 5th Gen. When the rear seates are folded down the still sit about 8" higher than the remaining cargo floor. See about 8:25 in this video in the thread:

At this point I think you would have to reach out to one of the reviewers with access to a prototype to see if they would take measurements for you.

 

Okk

just got a 24 pro

Not gonna lie, I've been trying to find them on BAM and other sites for a minute now but haven't come up on them. Send me a message if you find them first haha

 

The influencers usually get the test rigs way ahead of time and have their videos done weeks before the reveal dates, they all sit around waiting for the media blackout to lift and rush to post the videos, that's why all the videos are dropped at the same time immediately after the company says it's okay.

 

yep. We will see in a year or two when the first buyers give their feedback here. I genuinely hope this gen turns out to be a good one but it is the first turbo 4Runner(at least in recent history) so I will let others have the fun of being early adopters.

 

You’re better off taking the $50k and putting it in a 5.5 percent CD locked in for 12-14 months while this economy is still jacked up. It’s FDIC insured and you’ll save on car insurance and not risk the short term depreciation

 

This, we may be enthusiasts but we’re not representative of the entire 4Runner buying market. (heck, we have plenty of disagreements here as it is!)

Case in point, I loved my old Palm, Blackberry and Windows Phone phones over the competition back in the day but dang, did they flop

 

It's from a meme.

 

it's push button

 

Turbo 4cyl is not gonna work out for the folks wanting to build a legit rig. Added weight and turbos don’t mix. Being under constant boost all the time will cause the tiny turbos to wear out fast. I’ll keep my 5th gen.
