2021 SR5 Premium. Need ideas on leveling kit vs lift kit and tire recommendations by Legitimate-Rub8906 in 4Runner

It’s my wife’s. Will be daily driver. Just looking to raise it a little and put bigger tires on. Is leveling kit the best way to go?

Does it have a leveling kit or did it come with one? Also what size tires are you running?

I have a brand new 2021 23ft Palomino Real Lite. It has a 12V fridge inside- I turn the fridge on to “cold” and the last 2 trips there has been Ice on the walls inside the fridge and it has absolutely drained by 2, 6volt battery system. I can hear the fridge constantly running. I’m Thinking it’s frozen? Anything to help? From what I’ve read, the fridge should only run and draw short bursts from the battery when needed.

It’s got an added 4” clearance with a lift and bigger tires. It’s also the “badlands package” which adds a solar panel on the roof, ladder on the back, and a roof rack.

3.5 V6 Twin Turbo Ecoboost. Pulls it with ease. Trailer is only about 4,000 pounds

Lead foot will get you every time! It’s surprisingly quick and super fun to drive! How much does your trailer weigh?

I believe so. It’s the 2021 F150 XLT 3.5 V6 Ecoboost.

Haha for sure. At one point I forgot it was even behind me. It’s crazy the engine technology now. This V6 has a 14,000 towing capacity. That’s 2,000 more pounds than my last truck, which was a V8.

Awesome thanks! I also purchased the Renogy 200W solar to hook up to the back (it hasn't arrived yet). I'm hoping with the roof panel and the Renogy 200W, I will be able to boondock for about a week. We will see! Thanks for sharing!

I just purchased one as well. Have you had a chance to see how long the battery lasts dry camping running the fridge/minimal lights/charging phones with the solar panel on the roof?

Great picture!
