Dam, i think my engine would fly out of the hood if i got the governor to kick in at 110..
It looks like there's only 101k on that odometer..Why doesn't it have 1/10 of a mile?

Btw, random newb question..Are SR5 models with airbags? What is SR5, and what is the difference between an SR5 and a regular model?

My truck is SR5 and has no airbag

5 way adjustable bucket seats
sunroof
better interior
power locks and windows

Mine has the bucket seats, sunroof, interior and thats it.

lol well my pickup is a 93(before governor). My Yota is 2WD 22RE Auto, so maybe thats why I can hit the 110. And yup 101K ORIGINAL miles... This was this sunday.

The most I hit in my 95 4WD 4Runner was 96 and boy did that thing shake.

That last bit is all that matters my friend. Worry nothing else about people saying you need a 4wd. If your vehicle gets you booty, and you enjoy driving it then you are set for life.

I love the SR5 seats. I didn't realize the side adjustability until 2-3 days after owning the truck. It blew me away. The only other vehicle that I had been in that had it was my buddies 330xi.


Oh, and on the flat I've hit 95 ~4,500 rpm. Going down hill, 110 ~5500. I didn't stay there long and quickly went back down to normal. I'm not too sure about the rpms

my rear speakers are "custom" redneck style

I love the seats aswell, I didnt find the two adjusments like you untill a few weeks! I was impressed on the quality, although I wished the passenger seat was the same

Im not a big fan of the steering wheel, its WAY to big. I want to buy a 12" grand racing wheel, but in the matter of 2 days I have spent almost 1,200 dollers!! (more on that later )

I've actually given thought to trying to track down a right hand drive SR5 just to pull their driver seat.

Nice truck! But this Mazda truck looks better than yours. It has reliable Mazda header pipe as my dad says. Take a lot at it:

My truck (V6) will hit 90 mpg in 4x4 anytime, and I've had it hit the governor @ 107 mph (ish) on many occasions in 2wd. If yours won't do that, something is wrong with it. Mine climbs STRONG from 80 mpg to 90 mph, but after that the wind resistance gets too great and it's a struggle.
