Does anyone ever have a day off, and know that there is one simple thing that they're supposed to do, but completely forget to do it?! Yea, I did that this past Friday. - I totally forgot to BLOG!!! So now, today is my make-up for that, and although this post isn't on my normal posting day, it will still be just as juicy!!
This week I will tell you guys a little bit about the all new 2010 Toyota 4Runner. Man is this thing hardcore! With a new body style, and some interior features to enhance the perception, SUV-interested buyers are going to want to knock down our doors once these things come in. Bold distinctive styling, a heavy duty frame, and independent front and rear suspension is just the beginning of what you will notice about the new body style. Under the hood, you have something that no other competitor offers; dual independent VVT-i (Variable Valve Timing with Intelligence), controlling the intake and exhaust independently of each other, thus allowing more air flow for more power, all the while improving fuel economy!!
And of course, the Toyota standard, Star Safety System with ABS, Vehicle Stability Control, Traction Control, Electronic Brakeforce Distribution, and Brake assist. That, along with high strength steel construction, rust protection with anti-chip paint, and side impact beams make this vehicle one of the most reliable, safest SUV's out there.
A few other added features include a standard rear spoiler. But wait, this isn't just any regular spoiler, not only does it help to keep the rear window clear and reduce coefficient of drag, it has a rear windshield wiper hidden up inside the spoiler, for a clean look and reduced chance of damage from a carwash or while off-road. Sticking with the back end of the vehicle, it has an easy-to-operate tailgate, and a rear window with integrated one-touch up-down operation and jam protection. Something new on this 4Runner is that they've gotten rid of the tailgate power-close-assist. However, this new door, isn't nearly as tough to open or close so it isn't even needed. Furthermore, the speaker system now offers a "party mode" to concentrate the sound to the rear speakers located inside the tailgate. Also, a totally new feature is the innovative sliding rear deck. This versatile feature can hold up to 400 lbs. and is good for loading and hauling cargo, or even tailgating in style.
The new 2010 4Runner has an enhanced exceptional ground clearance of 9 to 9.6 inches, with a water fording depth of an incredible 27.6 inches! And an improved fuel economy of 17/22 MPG! Before I start to bore you all with the rest of the features in this immaculate SUV, let me tell you one more thing it has to offer. Another innovative feature for Toyota, a rear folding seat that is 40/20/40 split. Most Toyota models offer a 60/40 split and that was to be considered the norm. Not anymore!
The 2010 4Runner will be available in three different trim levels; the SR5 model, the Trail model (takes over the old Sport model, but has many more features), and the Limited model. Now each model has features and options exclusive to itself, and I'm sure by now you're probably ready to stop reading anyway! So, maybe once they hit the market, I can post an update, explaining a little more about each trim. But for now, seriously, check out this magnificent SUV and I'm sure you'll be amazed!! They're supposed to hit dealerships as early as November, so get your socks ready to be knocked off once you see these guys on the road!!
