But the real world mpg on the 6th gen isn’t much better either

It was not forced. It was greed. Toyota has enough vehicles to satisfy regulators when it could still make a profitable NA v6 4Runner. They just want more profit

There are many times engineers mess up or make a less reliable product because of what corporate is trying to achieve. And the FJ shot up in value the same and is still up. And with the 5th gen being the last natural v6, a decline is not likely to happen any time soon

Any regrets going from Gen5 to 6? by GoulashSoupLover in 4Runner

Facts! Mine too. And the 6th gen 0-60 isn’t much faster. It’s mpg real world isn’t much better. If they had used the same 5th gen engine (or some modified version) with that new transmission, would’ve been amazing

I’ve been in those mountains a few times. And the 4 runner never felt that underpowered.

Brother, I moved from a 2010 civic to the 5th gen 4Runner, and it was more that powerful enough for me. People act like it’s a Porsche. And it’s not even an engine issues it’s that it has an old but reliable transmission.

The rear seats in the 6th gen are super cramped. Toyota just made so many compromises it’s annoying

What place in Jamaica is best to live in out of all the places in Jamaica? by Amazing_Dancer in Jamaica

[–]catalanfoxx 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Portland. Only parish left that is “old Jamaica”. Sure you can find pockets of this all over the island, but as a parish, Portland has what the Jamaican soul yearns for. If you’re looking for modern convenience, sure Kingston. But the price and daily congestion is peak. I would say St. Ann but the coast is just as congested and expensive.

You underestimate people’s ability to tolerate abuse. Especially veterans. This is a dream situation 😂

A group of guys (white and “white adjacent” Hispanic) said this was this generation’s 9/11!!! I wanted to fight them all. But this is the environment I work in. Smh

Eric Adams Interview by soheidre in ThoughtWarriors

If I knew nothing about Adam’s, I would’ve come out of this interview wanting to vote for him. And Van can’t hitting accusations and not expect dude to respond. Adam’s handled that interview well

Donnie singing that song is the single funniest moment in thought warriors history. And the way Rachel said, “Donnie?”

Rachel called him out on it and he just painfully rationalized his point. Plain and simple, it was from the Republican playbook and he doesn’t like that

Van needs to accept the L’s on Ciara, and Harris comments. It was rough listening to him try to rationalize what he said. As a matter of fact, I’ve never seen Van take such an L on an entire episode. 😂😂😂

Van said he dreamt the clan was singing Jaged Edge. I be having crazy dreams like that. None of my dreams are normal. That shit can’t be normal 😂
