#11 of 11422 The '01s by blkcc Sep 07, 2000 (9:49 am)
Cliffy1... I'm dying to know what the changes are for the SR5 with the sport package. I'm in Hawaii and won't be able to get my hands on a brochure any time soon! Would you please list the changes...if the list is not too long!!! Thanks!

We got our first one in today. I didn't see anything major other than the 4WD system. The SR5 now has the multi-mode 4WD with VSC and traction control. The interior cloth changed a bit but only in pattern. The 4 cylinder and the manual transmission are gone.
#13 of 11422 01 SR5 Model by prerunner2 Sep 09, 2000 (1:53 pm)
Cliffy, Questions about the SR5 model: Is the 183 hp v6 still standard? I'm guessing there wasn't a power increase. Are the options packages different this year? Does the SR5 still have chrome bumpers and the same alloy wheels?
#14 of 11422 All the same by cliffy1 Sep 09, 2000 (3:57 pm)
Still has the 183 HP engine. Option packages are the same although we will be getting some without the moonroof this year. The interior is a little different. The alloys are slightly changed but I didn't notice until another salesmen pointed it out to me. The tail lights are more of a jeweled look.
#15 of 11422 2001 Traction control?? by bart53 Sep 12, 2000 (4:15 am)
I almost purchased a 2000 SR5 but couldn't find one with a diff lock in the NY area! And they did not offer a posi-rear. I decided to wait for the 2001 and now see they offer traction control on all 4 wheels? How does this compare to a diff lock, and/or a limited slip diff?? I'm looking for superior traction for towing a snowmobile trailer in Upper Maine and Canada sometimes on unplowed roads. Anyone with the technical scoop would be grately appreciated.

I just posted an explanation of the Land Cruiser 4WD system on topic number 2929. Go read it. the 2001 4Runner is the same with only one difference. The Runner has the option of operating in the 2 wheel drive mode. This is an awesome new system and if far superior to the locker or posi-traction.
#17 of 11422 VERRRRRY Interesting update by tazwell66 Sep 14, 2000 (5:02 pm)
Real Funny! (COVO and Cillfy) TOOK MY LIMITED TO TYSONS TOYOTA TO REPAIR THE FAULTY GAS TANK AND GAUGE. 1ST, THEY SAID THEY NEVER HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM; NEXT, THEY CLAIMED IT'S NOT THEIR ISSUE SINCE NO REACALL HAS BEEN ORDERED. I REMINDED THEM RECALL OR NOT, THIS DEFECT GOTTA B FIXED UNDER WARANTY. THEY BEHAVED. NOW, THEY'VE ASKED ME TO PROVIDE THEM WITH A PRINTOUT OF ALL THESE POSTINGS AMONG US, SO THEY CAN TELL WAHT'S GOING ON!!! THEY CLAIM IT'S ONLY A WARNING LIGHT ISSUE; WE ALL KNOW IT TO BE DIFFERENT. WHAT IS UP WITH THIS WORLD. I'VE ALWAYS BEEN LOYAL TO TOYOTAS, BUT SURE AS HELL EXPECTED BETTER FROM MINE, ESPECIALLY 36Ks LATER! 8-)
