I don't consider this a "car". It's definitely a truck. The controversy over the 22RE vs 3.0 V6 was really due to head gasket issue that Toyota had with the 3.0, not to mention misfire issues that creep up. It's good to eliminate the exhaust crossover pipe to mitigate hot soak. Also, for the size and weight of the 3.0, it gets horrible gas mileage for the power. The 22RE may be reliable but you pretty much have to do a timing chain and head gasket every 200k. That's not really what a lot of people would consider reliable. When these trucks started getting older, everyone wanted the early 84 and 85 models because they had a straight front axle which is stronger and easier to modify for off road. The 85 SR5 was the model to get because it was the only year to have a straight axle with fuel injection(22RE). The 84 had the 22R. People also liked the manual 4cylinder 4runners better because they came with a gear driven transfer case vs chain driven on autos and 3.0s which allows for lowering the gear ratio and you can split them and sandwich them together for more and lower off road gears. As time passed and people realized the 3.4 was just basically a 3.0 with all(most) of it's problems fixed and modernized, 4runners like yours became valuable because they are good candidates for a 3.4 swap especially with the manual transmission that you have as it's more beefy internally than the 5spd that came on the 4cyl 4runners and practically bolts right up to the 3.4. To comment on the first part of your video, my 85 manual will start any time I turn the key. They never had a clutch start cancel button. That was another thing Toyota had to add for Americans along with IFS and auto locking hubs to keep them from crying. I also have factory cruise control. It is not as rare of a feature for 80s vehicles than you think. Regarding the 22RE. It is a good motor but should not have been used in anything above a standard cab 2wd truck. It's perfectly suited for one of those. The 4runner was way to big and heavy for the 22RE. It's a total dog in the 4runner. I personally think it has a better reputation than it deserves. Besides needing a head gasket and timing chain too frequently, it has way too many strange sensors and timers that are getting hard to find. Also, the harness has solder connections that don't age well. Like the 3.4 to the 3.0, the 2rz/3rz motors are vastly superior to the 22re. All you have to worry about with those is adjusting the valve clearance every 60k or so as they tighten up over time.

About the service reminder - Maybe just bring the car to Porsche and have it serviced by them instead? I know doing your service by yourself is nice, but sometimes on car at this level, in my opinion, it’s best to have them do it and log it into the car system instead. Fuel reminder - Having anh car low on fuel is NOT good AT ALL! I never let my car go below 20% fuel.
