TOTALLY STOCK 4Runner Trail Edition off road

- I made the transition to Toyota! This is my new-to-me 2010 Toyota 4Runner Trail Edition.
I took my stock 5th gen 4Runner Trail Edition off road! I decided to check out parts of the Kentucky Adventure Tour and Daniel Boone Backcountry Byway to test it out. I probably should have upgraded the tires first though!

So my take-away is that a stock 4Runner with some decent AT or MT tires is pretty darn capable off-road!
just put my dog down today makes me happy to see one happy playing in the mud
I’m really sorry to hear that
Sorry about that... 😩😢😞🇳🇬🇺🇸
Love the 4Runner but watching your dog enjoying life outdoors made my morning!
Came to see how my stock suspension would do at a 4x4 park, stayed because I fell in love with your awesome doggy!
You’ve got a new subscriber. I too bought an early 5th Gen 2013 4Runner Trail Edition in great condition. It came with TRD Pro wheels and brand new Nitto A/T Terra Grappler tires. If your stock 2010 can do all that, I’m keeping my suspension stock. That’s the most type of off-roading I plan to do. Looking forward to seeing more of your adventures with your 4Runner!
Sweet! It’s a great vehicle. I put a lift on mine a couple of weeks ago. I miss the cushy ride of the stock suspension, but I like the extra clearance!
I too prefer the stock suspension. Perfect for my use as well.
I came here to watch a 4Runner off road and you put a minute and a 1/2 of slo mo dog playing in water lol what a great bonus feature 👌🏻 Great vid !! Nice truck !!
Anyone that wants some advice for making the non functional hoodscoop actually functional.. I put a small but powerful light bar in my hoodscoop that works great as ditch lights.. I also get compliments on how cool it looks :)
Where did you order from?
@@chewminem2044 My brother co-owns a shop that specializes in customizing Toyota\Lexus 4x4s, in Vancouver, so I didn't actually have to order anything. They modified the hood scoop insert and did it all themselves, before there were as many options on the market. However this was a few years ago now and there are many options on the market now, where it has become a more popular idea, so if you Google search "5th gen 4Runner hood scoop light bar (or LED lights), you will definitely find several options.
Just be sure it is for the 4Runner and not another make, like Tacoma, and that you aren't ordering the flashy color changing, strobe LEDs that are for showy street vehicles. A few friends have made these mistakes lol
6:31 I couldn't believe a stock 4Runner on street tires could do that, totally sold.
Nice rig Rob. The Jeep will be missed. Welcome to club Toyota!!!! Lol
Thanks! I’m very happy with it!
I love these kinda videos, and the camera angles looks so relaxing
Sorry to see the Cherokee go but 4runners are a good truck. It will do well for you. Happy trails
Seriously?.. Getting rid of a Cherokee for a 4runner is cause for celebration lol
My first sub. Your videos are great and I am now obsessed with 4runners/wheeling/overlanding
Nice! I drive a 2011 4runner trail and it's the best looking 5th gen in my opinion. Only have offroad tires and no lift and I made it up countless jeel trails
I love it - we just drove from Kentucky to Quebec City, via some really rough unpaved roads in Maine, and it was comfortable and quiet the whole way. Check out the pics on Instagram!
Loved seeing the dog play like that. Traction mats can really save your arse and are easy to carry with you. Good on you for having them. I have Go-Treads but haven't had to use them yet. Even AT tires probably would not have gotten you out of that.
If you’re worried about road handling and aggressivetires, don’t. Get ko2s and be down with it. They actually handle much better than the oem.
There is zero reason to keep the highway tires on a 4Runner.
A 3m clear plastic wrap will help prevent paint scratches.
Traction aids first require adequate tires.
Not too shabby for a stocker. Those street tires did better than I’d expect. Look forward to seeing what you do to it. Also, Jeremy might need some new jeans. 😂
Yeah, gonna have to go back out and video it with some mods!
I have a 2020 TRD ORP, all stock for now, except the ATW Wildpeak tires which I love. I am looking simply to upgrade for a new lift and a rock slider.
You’re re-selling a good amount of 5th-gens for used car dealers and private folks with this. Nice vid 👍🏻
Honey has a hard time getting in but no worries we gonna add a 2 1/2 - 3 inch lift lol. She'll get the hang of it. Nice rig. I just bought a 2018 4runner off road, same color. Looking forward to some great adventures myself.
Dog in slow mo, or the 4runner in action, hard choice! Thanks for posting.
He's definitely the star of the show!
I'm in a 2011 4runner limited with a 2.5 inch front lift, bilstein 5100. Looking to do a facelift with the high clearance front bumper chop and 3 inch lift in the rear with bump stop spacers. But as is, i haven't been stuck yet. *knocks on wood*
Nice!! Congrats on your first pen stripe! Craw control really good in really steep places going either up or down
It was cool, but struggled on the steps/ledges that I used it on. A steady throttle worked better.
@@RevereOverland when you're out west go to Hell's Revenge in Moab, on the way down there really steep hill use crawl control, you'll see the benefit. Also sand, in sand the stop go stop go supposedly helps by pulsating some way
Nice. We did some back country driving on interesting roads in WY and SD a couple months ago. Totally stock 2019 SR5P. I will get better tires soon so I can feel more confident. But the stock truck did well.
Slow mo dog sequence= best part of this video
Awesome! I have that same exact model, just in silver. I got it this past February, and I love it! I have a set of RSG sliders I need to paint then install, and next up are a set of stock-sized General Grabber ATX mounted on TRD Pro wheels that I just couldn't resist!
Great video, I liked that you showed your dog. Dogs are the best! I have two that love to ride in the Runner! (Or "Runnah", as we say in New England).
That ZJ is pretty badass, I used to have one, but corrosion killed it. Those things are great on the trail, as you can see in the video that front end is super flexy. Solid front axle for the win!
I tried the crawl in mine once. It was impressive how it worked, I went down a very steep, rutted switchback without touching either of the pedals. But jesus, the noises that thing was making...if I hadn't heard them in videos before, I'd have thought there was something drastically wrong with it. I prob won't use crawl very much just for that.
Good luck with it, and I look forward to seeing the build progress!
Nice! You’ll have to let me know how the sliders are. I’m still shopping around.
@@RevereOverland Will do! Also, I forgot to mention, if you replace the stock roof rack, the 10-13 Trail stock roof rack seems to be desirable, so there's money in it if you decide to sell it.
Thanks for the heads-up - do you think around $300 is reasonable to ask for it?
@@RevereOverland I'm no expert, I've only been in the 4Runner scene since February. However I did see a few people on t4r.org mention that rack. Somebody said he paid $500 for one. So 300 is probably pretty reasonable for that. I really like it actually, I plan on leaving it on mine.
The 2010-2013 5th gens are so nice. I drive a 2011 trail
You've got a new subscriber! Bought our 2016 4Runner Trail Premium a month ago - loving it! The ONLY possible perceived drawback is the kind of sluggish get-up-and-go & fuel economy. That said, you don't buy a 4Runner for either so no gripes here. BTW: Where'd you get the plastic mat for your dog in the back?
Looking forward to future travels!
Thanks! It’s a great vehicle. Like you, I noticed the sluggishness from engine/transmission. I can’t complain about the mpg though - it’s a LOT better than my Jeep was! The plastic mat is from my old Jeep Grand Cherokee. I took it out and kept it!
Awesome vid made it feel like I was there! Can’t wait to get me a yota
Thanks for watching! You won’t regret switching to Toyota!
Beautiful photography
Camera quality is awesome 👌🏾🔥
About time😜! Congrats man!
Thanks! I love it
How do you like your non functional hood scoop? I was thinking about getting one on my 2015 SR5, but iv heard mixed reviews. Also, can you tell me the brand? Thank you so much!!
It comes on the Trail Edition trim. I didn't like it because of the sun glare.
YESSSS! WELCOME TO RELIABLE FUN
did you drain the water out of the axles after this?
great video!!! love the action shots
What part of KAT is this? Spas Creek? Really great video and welcome to the Toyota family!!
Most is videoed south of the Mountain Parkway in Wolfe County. There’s also some just off Bald Fork Road in Lee County in the NFS owned land. The Jeep at the end was on Old Fincastle Road on the Daniel Boone Backcountry Byway.
Revere Overland Thank you for the info!
The dog too cute!
He's a lot of fun to take... Even when he jumps right into the mud!
that looks like a great dog. dogs are wonderful.
What lift did you decide to go with?
Very nice!! Will miss the old jeep though! But you'll make that 4runner look slick 👍
I’ll miss the old Jeep too! Lift and roof rack are going on the 4Runner this weekend.
Currently been driving a friends 4Runner and they run great. I have always liked them. But, I have also been introduced to an alarming fact, Toyota trucks and 4 Runners are notorious for severe frame rot. They can look great on the outside and have frames rotting out. There have been several recalls and although the 4Runner is known to rust as bad as the others, there is no Toyota recall that I know of and a frame replacement is 12 grand. Enjoy it but sell it before the frame rots. Would have loved to have bought your Overland.
That really depends on where you live and how well you take care of your vehicle. If you live in the south (no snow) or regularly undercoat your car for every winter you shouldn't have a problem.
@@TheFinalApproach , not true. I live in the south and it rarely snows here. You will see that the frame rusting out is prevalent into the deep south if you do a bit of research. No prevention stops it as the rust begins inside the box frame rails. It's a known Toyota truck and SUV issue going back over 20 years. P.S. Toyota NA is headquartered a few miles from me. My neighbor is head of design engineering VP. We talk about it often. There are several class action law suits resulting in some recalls which are complete. The recalls cover the trucks but not the 4Runner.
Maybe scattered problems years ago but not within the last 20 years. Bogus claim.
@@wilburpost7977 you are wrong. I welded frame caps on that Toyota 4 Runner and it was an 2006. His friend has a 2008 that has massive frame rust. I don't live in the rust belt. Toyota is in a class action of thousands of Toyota truck and SUV owners that have newer vehicles that were left out of a recall Toyota had. The class action is for trucks and SUV that are much newer. Its not a random or rare. Its widespread and they rust in southern states too.
@@wilburpost7977 please talk about something you have a clue about.
Awesome... oh what a feelin, great vehicles!
How many miles on it when you purchased it?!? & hoe many now?
144k I think. It’s about to hit 200k.
I drove down a gravel road with my rear window down once, coated the inside with grit and dust.
Yeah it’s pretty dusty inside now. I love having it down though.
Great choice, congrats, and welcome!
Is there a bypass for the gnarly section at the end?
No, no bypass. The part at the end was on Old Fincastle Rd on the Daniel Boone Backcountry Byway, so not part of the Kentucky Adventure Tour. We had to drive about 30 minutes to get around it.
@@RevereOverland Thanks! I started looking at the GPX routes for both KAT and DBBB...
I found this motorcycle-focused site with section-by-section ratings of the DBBB: motoadventurer.com/2018/07/28/daniel-boone-backcountry-byway-an-adventure-guide/
Sure enough, Old Fincastle Rd is part of section 4 rated as advanced (marked in red). I'll stick to the easier sections!
How’s the rig holding up?? Just got my 2010 SR5
We did an 8,000 mile trip this summer. Check out the latest series!
Revere Overland Subscribed!
Where does that trail start at? My brother and I might try it. On our trip next weekend. We grew up in Breathitt Co.
Love your video's!
It’s a 1000 mile loop around Kentucky, so you can start anywhere you want!
Just wandering if it ran near Breathitt Co. I should just look at a map of it! LOL Looking forward to your next video! Thanks
It runs right through! Check out my last KAT video - Spring Shakedown.
@@RevereOverland Awsome thanks again! Be going next weekend!
Well we did part of the Kentucky Adventure tour around the Elk View area in Knott County , Breathitt County. Then we did part of the Daniel Boone Backcountry byway around the Red River Gorge. It was awesome. Thanks for putting it out there for us to see.
You just killed the warranty.😂
Was that air scoop for a turbo diesel edition with the top mount intercooler. I reckon the d4d 3lt tdi would go good in one of these
There isn’t a turbo diesel version in the US. I know several trims come with the scoop, and they’re all for looks.
@@RevereOverland bring them to Australia they would deffinatly have a diesel engine
For sure. The engine choice is much better in Europe and Australia!
Whats that sound at 4:09? Is it the frame that is going under stress?
That sound is crawl control pulsing the brakes. The brakes are full of mud though, so it's making a horrible squealing!
@@RevereOverland Oh I see! Very good video! A lot of great info. I am looking into buying this kind of 4 runner. Not the trail edition though, I dont go off road as much or at all but I am interested in travelling the Us and Canada by road and this seems just perfect! Kinda brings back memories with our old 87 diesel landcruiser we used to travel in!
Cheers!
Are you driving 4h or 4l the whole time
I switched as appropriate. For the gravel roads I’d be in 2wd, but if I approached a rough patch I’d switch to 4hi. It’s quick and easy. For steep climbs, or rocky trails where I wanted better control, I switched to 4lo.
I love the TPB reference, are you sure it for to be not Sam the Caveman or Hellbillies?
TPB rocks!
His poor wife supporting his budding you tube career.
Haha! You know it!
What is this trail called?
It's part of the northern parts of the Kentucky Adventure Tour
You Gotta Love It 🐟🐟🎣🎣
I do, it’s great!
Are those h/t tires ?
Yes
@@RevereOverland wow , gives me confidence to take my 4Runner with the same tires you have on far less aggressive terrain you were on in this video. Thank you
Yeah I wasn’t worried about the capability at all! I was worried about cutting or puncturing a tire though - street tires aren’t as tough as all terrains.
@@RevereOverland oh definitely! Do you recommend an e rated tire for all terrains or do you think a load c tire will suffice ?
@@IPinoyBoy69 I have C rated currently
To bad ppl won't give anything time to dry up.Local have been complaining alot this year about ppl tearing it up.
The dog montage made this video.
Were is the jeep
Sitting in my driveway waiting be listed for sale! Nothing wrong with it, but I wanted something newer and different!
Lexus is the same as Toyota...hence "the relentless pursuit of perfection"
Try 2003 vw touareg or 2005 LR 3
They so wide ! I wish mine could get that wide
I feel betrayed now, let down in a way I can't believe you gave up the Jeep for a Toy - I can't even type the words I'm so distraught
I’ll sell you Jeep so you can still enjoy it?
@@RevereOverland I'm a Land Rover guy so I wouldn't have either one
Get some new brakes on soon!
They put new brake pads on all round when I bought it. I think it’s just some dirt trapped from the mud.
👍🏽🍺
@@RevereOverland That was the crawl control/ATRAC system working. it uses the brakes and modulates the power where it is needed. I miss the GC.
That hood scoop adds 78 fake horsepower. At least it does to mine. Results may vary.
Well that’s worth having then!
Revere Overland You have to make the supercharger sound with your mouth. Can be embarrassing with passengers but it’s worth the extra fake power.
Oh I do that anyway. Motorboat sounds for water crossings too.
👍💖
Definitely think she’s over exaggerating hoping I’m😂💀
amazingly*
But yeah, that's why I'm sticking with my Jeep.
Should have skipped the 4Runner crap and went right to the zj at the end
It would be a pretty short video!
Nice video...and your girlfriend or wife is like “boys with there toys” mmm
Those are standard features, not options
No they’re not. You don’t get any of those with the SR5 or Limited trims. They come with the Trail Edition (as I said in the video), TRD OR, and TRD Pro.
"off road"
