I talked to one of the guys there about it when they first came out, but I didn't really like the fact that it dosen't come with shackle mounts, or a reciever hitch. This normally wouldn't be a big deal (just weld 'em on) but downey powdercaots them so you'd have to strip it down to weld them on... kinda a waste. I've got a MC-300 (Marlin) and it has both feature mentioned. plus it has a wrap around design to allow for more jacking versitility.
So to recap, the downey is nice if all you wanna have back there is a liscnce plate (which wouldn't even happen on a 4runner), but for about the same price you could get one with more versitlity.
Also I think Warn makes one, plus I've seen a few that incorporate a rear oversizeed-tire carrier (kinda like on jeeps)... don't know who makes those
