Just ordered one like this, minus the auto steps. I won't get it for 4-5 weeks, but I have wanted a 4R since I was a kid, just couldn't bring myself to pay $50k for any vehicle without Apple Car Play. It definitely doesn't have the bells and whistles of my Acure MDX, or our Subaru Ascent, which this is replacing. And it definitely doesn't have close to what the Kia Telluride, I was about ready to sign for, has. But, right before I placed my deposit on the Kia, I came across a dealer that had an order going in for a Nightshade. So we tried to find one to test drive. No luck, but, we did find a TRD Premium, it felt so much better than my Ascent or the Telluride, I loved the body on frame and ride height. Both the Subaru and Kia are nice vehicles, but just didn't create close to the same feeling of driving the 4R. The only thing that we came across that even came close to matching the effect was the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon and we weren't ready to deal with the reliability issues of the Jeep. So, a Nightshade it is, now just have to wait.
@@fatkaiju6209 All of the dealerships we were working with just wanted a $500 deposit, although they first had to pull credit and keep a credit app on file. I am not sure how the ordering part worked though, it sounded like they had a limited amount of orders and in my case, one remaining 4Runner.
Wait a second. Did I hear that right? If you do remote start, once you walk up to it and open the door the engine will shut off, requiring you to start it again? Seems like that will result in a lot of unnecessary start/stops.
@@leftoversoversigjt7719 Plus most of the time you don't need to do that. I can take the heat, just open windows in summer when you get in before AC gets cool. It's only frosty/iced/snowy windshield when you are running late that you really want to remote start it. Then on the way home it's afternoon and not really cold or frosty....so winter mornings sometimes is it.
Take out that dumb 3rd row seat and add the cargo tray. Also add heated steering wheel, blind spot monitoring and panoramic sunroof since I doubt it will be taken out to do some serious off roading.
So you won’t do what my coworker once did. She remote started her honda from in the house and when she got in the car she realized she had to pee. So while the car still running, she went back in the house to the bathroom, she took off her pouch (which had her key in it) before she pulled down her clothes to handle her business. She forgot to put her pouch back on as She went back out to her still running car, she got in and somehow didn’t notice the no key detection buzzer because she hadn’t had her caffeine yet. Lol she drove all the way to work and shut off her vehicle before she realized her key was still at home in the bathroom. Luckily her adult son who still lives with her was able to bring her key to her job when she got off.
17:38 I find it quite intriguing that Toyota decided to carry a decimal place for the temperature display. I highly doubt the automatic climate control is that precise, and humans can even detect half a degree of change!

Hi- How much of a deposit do you have to put down when ordering a truck? Or, do you have to pay for it in advance?

Great informative video. I want to get the same 4Runner in the video
Got the exact same one a couple days ago. Love it, NO RAGRETS!
Hows the gas mileage? I'm thinking about getting one in the near future.
@@shakazulu5567 Horrible dude, but the ride and reliability is top notch!
@@dickhammerbusch8015 damn bro ! I really like the 4 Runner. Lets hope the 2022 models have better gas mileage. We shall see. Thanks for the feedback.
I wish this truck have a decent cargo area with the 7 seats option, my wife forcing me to get the highlander because of that... we are 6 in the family
Thank you sir! God bless.

Yes it's a Toyota safety feature. My Lexus does this too.
You can start it and stop it a million times and won’t hurt shit.

Just to clarify....So if you leave the keys in the car will it lock with the keys in the vehicle?
No, it won't lock with the keys left in vehicle.
What a great presentation! Well done 👍🏾. Thank you very much.
How the hell do you get automatic running boards? I thought those were only available on the blizzard white 4 runner limited.
Possibly ordered that way but trust
you You don’t want them; they’re horrible!!

great video by far the best I've seen, good job
Why does it shut off every time you open the dooor? Anyway to stop it from doing that? Such a pain

This SUV looks good , but tech wise very far behind . For 50K lot of features missing like blind spot,heated steering wheel etc.. list goes on.
Oh yes. I've been saying the same for years now. Their cars come with that, but none of their SUVs or trucks do.
Lol
These look so much better with the retractable running boards than the ugly static pieces of junk Toyota hangs on these.
No CD player?
@@Nostromo_1 True!
It is so old that maybe it comes with casette player jajajajajaja
@@dariojimenez3087 No. it’s new. 2020.
@@Nostromo_1 but it is the same car they didn't change it. They just make new models in RAV4 and Corolla
@@Nostromo_1 I'm talking with a fan! You can't see the difference between a lion and a kitty. I rather an old chevy S10 than that toyota crap.
"Night Shit Edition" :P

I had to go back and look at this myself. Only does that when set to centigrade, when set to Fahrenheit does not use a decimal.
Looking for one right now
No 2023 Nightshade Edition?
Darn, no cd player. Its a deal breaker!
You can still buy aftermarket cd players and 12 disc changers. It what I'd do and have done.
