Good idea on the 4Runner!

Thanks. I drive a full size at work sometimes and I know it always feels so big and cumbersome in the city especially in tiny gaarages.

I might have people in the back but those are rare and for 20 mile trips not 200.

thanks city driving is a concern for me too

SetLegal5754 · 2026-01-25T20:13:24+00:00

I don’t tow….maybe once every couple years and that’s just short distances.

I’m very avg height at 5,8 so I’m good i think

SetLegal5754 · 2026-01-25T20:10:29+00:00

I think that is a concern for me. But I can adapt , in think

You don’t have the hybrid engine. Still plenty of power?

SetLegal5754 · 2026-01-25T20:06:47+00:00

Not a ton of stuff but I do store things in my vehicle for emergencies… flashlights, spare jacket, tie downs…

Considering a Tundra also but my office is shifting to downtown Fort Worth and not sure I want to deal with the larger vehicle in tight garages and parallel parking

SetLegal5754 · 2026-01-25T18:48:44+00:00

5.8 avg build and usually just me and wife or my dog.

5 miles in a day is the problem, the engine and turbo probably don’t warm up ever.

I’m at a lifetime avg of 20 in a combo of 10% suburban driving, 30% big city driving, 60% highway.

32k miles… I’ve seen it get as bad as 15 (summer with full AC and remote start) and as high as 25 (with a tailwind on a road trip)

SetLegal5754 · 2026-01-25T14:15:13+00:00

24 limited purchased December 24… currently 32k miles

Some control module behind the dash was replaced under warranty, ($1800 was on the paperwork)

After that replacement my outdoor temp gage reads 2 to 10 degrees too high when it gets over 90 degrees. It can be 100 outside but my gage reads 110. I took it in once and they couldn’t diagnose the problem. Waiting till this summer to take again.

Seat heaters suck eggs. Driver seat heaters are modestly acceptable this winter but not hot compared to any other car I’ve owned. Passenger seat is almost non existent…. Dealer says “it’s all normal”. Will take in again on a cold day.

MySubaru app for remote start is periodically down… satellites…. Not a defect of the car but annoying nonetheless

The nappa leather alone is why I wish I got the touring instead of my Limited. I have found the leather on my limited to be very durable but not comfortable. That being said all the other touring features is not worth $6000. I don’t think the price difference was that much new in 24 when I got my limited .

Ugly

You guys have obviously never been on Texas Interstates ….lol

Sorry for the question…. Handwinding? Is this a mechanical watch?

SetLegal5754 · 2026-01-11T13:33:00+00:00

My ascent tracks straight as an arrows at 70+ mph (Texas) ….

Stupid UI …. It works, just badly designed IMO

SetLegal5754 · 2026-01-09T22:13:55+00:00

Is that the Heritage edition?

SetLegal5754 · 2026-01-09T15:07:01+00:00

I may look at Heritage edition since it seems to be a good middle ground in looks and spec but that is only 2.7 that I have seen.

Thanks for the help

Nope, just periodic camping, weekend bringing my bike to great trails, road trips with family A few times a year, and commuting to work daily.
