    Hi there 4runners.com,

    I just found and bought a 2021 4runner SR5 with 27000 miles for 33,000. At first glance and ride it's real good. I've owned a few Toyotas before and have not had a 4runner. It's not as comfortable as the Sequoia I had but it also is a little more capable off road and in the snow which is to be expected but I find it more comfortable than the 08 and 16 Tundra or 16 and 18 Tacoma I had. I like the look of the exterior a lot and really appreciate the cargo space. I ordered some better floor mats I've typically have gone with weather tech but this time decided to try the husky brand. We will see how those work out. I'd also like some sort of protection for the rear, front / sides / a step up to get in would be helpful too. Possibly aluminum? Welp I look forward to looking around and learning some stuff here.

    Nate

    Welcome..!!
    I too found 4runner is much better in traction than Tundra. I could even drive in 2wd to some level. In Tundra the rear end loose traction pretty fast. I guess its expected in newer lighter trucks.

    Members might not be happy if I post my (non sponsored) sliders video and floor mats videos on this post. I have RSG HREW sliders (relatively less weight than DOM) and for floor mats Husky and Lasfit on my YouTube (youtube.com/ LionRunner). Have a look if that helps. :)
