2014 4Runner Refresh?

[Nathan]

Toyota seems to be getting ready to release a style refresh of the 4Runner. It seems odd since the current model hasn't been out that long and the Tacoma had hardly been touched in the past 10 years.

Motor Trend had a nice side by side comparison of the front lights.

They look pretty good to me!

I want one so bad but my truck is paid off and it is smarter to not get into another payment.:banghead:

I am pretty shocked that Toyota is going to refresh the T4R already, like Nathan said where's the love for the Tacoma. :glare:

 

[Nathan]

The crazy thing is the Tacoma outsells the 4Runner almost 2 or 3 to 1 (depending on the year). Why no love?

 

[whippersnapper02]

No need to change something that sells like warm bread.

 

[Nathan]

Companies lose their edge when they sit on their leads.

Maybe this is a design test for the Tacoma?

 

[NJtacoma]

Toyota needs to do something soon to the Tacoma, I mean come on how long can I go without a car/truck payment. :shifty:

I LOL at the "Should I buy a 13 or wait until 14" threads.

 

[Nathan]

Ugh... not sure I like it. I'll have to see it in real life.

I actually kind of like it

 

[whippersnapper02]

I would trade in for one.

I had to laugh at this review.

Inside, passengers get up-to-date seat materials, a more pleasant cabin with softer surfaces and a modern version of the Toyota in-dash computer. Which they should enjoy, because it saves them from having to look at the front of the new 4Runner, an odd collision of angles and scoops that appear inspired by an angry largemouth bass.

Ouch!

:rofl:

I still like it. Maybe it is a bit too boy racer but still not bad.

HAHAHA To buy or not buy that's always the question, one that only yourself can only answer:yes:

 

[whippersnapper02]

People worrying about resale value as they are purchasing is also funny to me.

That review is hilarious! I still kind of like it though. A friend of mine has a 2013 4runner and think I like the new model a little better. Especially the headlights.

 

[Nathan]

It's not as bad as that reviewer made it sound but I'm hoping this doesn't foreshadow the 2015 Tacoma redesign... because I'm not loving it.

 

[NJtacoma]

That thing is ugly. First the highlander now this what is Toyota thinking.


2014 Highlander..
