I'm sure they had some effect on endorsement, but if it wasn't a great vehicle, most of the journalists I saw would still publish the perceived flaws. Some would get pretty brutal on it as well. Those were some of the OG print/online journalists though, and when influencers were in the infancy. Today, not really sure with non traditional media being at its highest.

    I have a 97 Surf SSRX, which is basically a Japan only (right hand drive) 4Runner. I'm a Brit, living in the mountains of southern France. It's used 90% off road in very rugged country, 530,000 miles on it now, I've owned it 21 years. Sadly for the first time it needs real maintenance, a front wheel bearing failed so I'm replacing all joints, bearings and bushings on the chassis. Not sure I'll get another 500K out of it, someone may, but I'm into my mid 70's now.

The electronics had gone nuts, it kept forgetting what accessories it had, it keep draining the battery, it kept sitting itself on the floor, I stopped using it and that made it all 10 X worse when I had to move it - which I could not. The W140 1996 was literally the best car I have ever driven - it was perfect and perfectly reliable.

    @@piccalillipit9211this has happened with all cars. I own an auto repair shop and when it came time to pick a tow vehicle that can handle my family of 7 and an equally sized travel trailer I looked past all the modern offerings and picked up a 2004 Suburban 2500 with an 8.1. Yes Ive put some significant money into repairs and upgrades but I’m still vastly less money invested then buying anything from the last 10 years and have a more reliable, easier and cheaper vehicle to repair. That’s one reason the used car market has been strong the last few years, not only are new ones expensive but they have too many downsides compared to their previous generations. It’s sad to watch new tech and bloated features beat out good design, engineering and build quality. The manufacturer who figures out how to step back in time in that sense is going to make a killing, we’ll see if government regulations will allow it.

    This is great. The tricky bit is when that period tails off and parts get quite hard to come by. By way of example: it used to be dead easy to get scrap bits for my 1997 Peugeot expert 10 or even 5 years ago, but it's falling off the back end of that now and some things (like rear door rubbers) are just unobtanium (and the design is not simple enough that generic rubbers will do the trick). There is definitely an optimum period for these things. Picking a long-lived design fairly early in the run helps a lot as there is a stream of vehicles 10-15 years newer than yours which get used and retired to keep you in bits for a good long time. Especially if they kept this thing the same for 15 years without even pointless facelifts that's about as good as it gets.

    Hard to tell without dimensions, but that front nose looks WAY longer than older 4runners. Something I'm not a fan of for city driving or out in the boonies. Also might just be because of the ridiculous amount of snow we get here, but those bright-ass LED lights are useless for winter driving unless you want to impair your vision more than you're helping. It also sucks having a light burn out and being out $1600 for a headlight because they are sold as singular drop in units. I've broken a fair few headlights out in the woods, that's not a bill i'm looking for.

    My "Ugh" list: #1: Toyota still building dumb fully boxed frames that will rust out super easily like all the 4Runners before it. #2: I understand that the push for a 4 cylinder turbo or hybrid is all about CAFE standards, but I really think we will regret the over-complexity that those two types of systems bring. A well-engineered smaller turbocharged gas engine pushing around a heavy truck may be well made, but it's not going to last as long as a well-engineered larger displacement engine. That being said, an 8 speed trans will really help the engine not have to work as hard. Maybe that will offset the smaller engine, in the same vane as how semi trucks haul so much weight with a relatively small engine. #3: I am sad that there's no manual option.

Except there was a kick-up in the frame...a hump.....where the springs were located for the rear axle.. which when the entire frame was lowered into and immersed in the galv bath... caused a air pocket so 6 inches of the "hump" was not galvanised.. In a short time the Navarras folded when the unseen non-galv portions rusted out...from inside! All for the want of strategically drilled holes to let the trapped air out so the galv could flow in..

    15 years in my 88. Was 2400 in 09 now prbly worth close too 15g I really wish they would bring back a convertible option. I own 3 different tops for my truck and they all serve a purpose, one of which is a short canopy that acts like a cab cap where the back seats fold forward and flat then I used a spare tailgate window and regulator so I have a power roll down back window like the tundra and with a bed extender my motorcycke fits perfectly. Or just doing random truck stuff like getting wood, dirt or taking garbage away its nice having that option. But the convertible will always be my favorite part of my truck and what I use the most.

    I think it's a real shame that they don't supply the Torsen centre diff in their pickups. There's no reason not to, and it's hardly groundbreaking tech. Centre diff were in Land Rover pickups forty years ago! It makes a massive difference to on road towing and general safety.

    My first car was a 1968 Corona. My current car is a Highlander (not hybrid). One reason I buy Toyotas is because they are reliable, comfortable enough, drive well enough, and most importantly, the seats fit my body and the controls are where they should be and change very little.

    I'll be curious whether the battery pack on the hybrid will be useful as a power source for camping/overlanding. Currently I have to carry a big-ass lithium battery and inverter for powering my fridge and induction stove. It would be great if I could easily power those things off the hybrid battery and use the engine to quickly recharge as needed.

  • @brianb-p6586

    @brianb-p6586

    Ай бұрын

    Not really - it's only 1.87 kWh. You would need the larger battery of a plug-in hybrid (typically about ten times larger) to be really useful for that. Toyota is not offering a plug-in hybrid in their body-on-frame vehicles.

  • @dave7038

    @@brianb-p6586 that is quite small, but easily big enough to be useful if the system can auto-start the engine to charge it as needed. I have to do that anyway, but charging from the alternator is slow compared to what a hybrid could be capable of, depending on how they have it set up. It seems like it would be a huge miss to market an overlanding-oriented vehicle with a battery and 2kW inverter that can't self-charge as needed.

    2:03 Thank you thank you thank you for finally providing the information that it might be possible to Tundra swap. I've been dying to know this. When Titan swapping a Nissan Xterra or Frontier*, you have to either get longer CV axles or swap the front diff. You also need shocks. The Xterra shocks no longer fit. The Titan shocks won't fit unless you also swap the spindle, in which case you might need a bracket lift. I've been meaning to confirm that. This is probably not a difficult problem to find cheap shocks with measurements and travel that matches. But if it's possible to Tundra swap, I'd be shocked, no pun intended, if the market doesn't have a plethora of options within the next few years. There are other things to consider, but I don't remember off the top of my head. * Or Pathfinder. Some of the Pathfinders came with the VK56 V8, and had the diff as well. Which reminds me you can also get parts off in Armada, or Infinity QX-whatever (80?). So don't forget the Sequoia when when checking junk yards. Which also reminds me, it's recommended to purchase dedicated parts, not use junkyard or even stock Titan parts. All of this just makes me want to try it for the hell of it, and experience firsthand how it actually rides and handles. Then I can always spin the big bucks later, and install dedicated parts. I don't mind the labor. I would love to do it, and to be good at it. It's just the time required that's a bitch.
