Car Forum / Toyota / Toyota Trucks / November 2006Need recommendation: Forerunner 2007 ?
I'm in the market for a new Forerunner and looking for whether to buy the V6 or V8? The V6 has multi mode which I believe is two wheel drive then shift to four wheel drive. The V8 is all the time four wheel drive. I live in Colorado and regularly drive the city traffic, highways and off-roads to get to the trailheads where I climb the high peaks. I've driven the V8 and it's very smooth. Have not driven the V6 yet. I would like to get an 'off-road' TRD version if they make it but I don;t think they do. Any recommendations for engine or configuration that you like, or don't like? If you tow anything get the V8. The Sports Edition (SE) is probably closest you'll get to TRD. It has tube running board now )think since 06) vice the fiberglass city running boards. Can't get leather in the SE from the factory though. > I'm in the market for a new Forerunner and looking for whether to buy the > V6 or V8?

Scuse my ignorance.... but why would somebody actually *WANT* leather seats in a truck?? They are hot in the summer, you stick to them, they are cold in the winter, and they are very expensive to replace when you gouge or tear one. Am I missing anything here?? > If you tow anything get the V8. The Sports Edition (SE) is probably > closest you'll get to TRD.

I won't be getting leather in the forerunner! Does the V6 run at higher RPM's? Can you put a Blower on either engine? I remember the V6's in the PU's can have a Blower. > If you tow anything get the V8. The Sports Edition (SE) is probably > closest you'll get to TRD.

TRD (Toyota) only has a supercharger for the V8 $Runner engine. The old 3.4L V6 has one but not the new 4L. >I won't be getting leather in the forerunner! > [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] >>> Any recommendations for engine or configuration that you like, or don't >>> like? |
