it isn't ugly grey cladding but it is different colored and then it has different rims than i've seen - so what is this????

its on the main toyota site kind of but attached is a pic...

 

It's a Limited....

 

a limited w/ painted different color cladding that looks like the sr5/sport cladding and a limited with 6spoke rims? hmm...i'm not sure about that

 

You seem very argumentive dmc, you asked what others thought it was, and pdfaxe told you what he thought it was.

Also it IS the same grey cladding, the sun is just shining on it giving it a different look. Here's a pic of the same 4Runner minus the rear spoiler...


According to the picture's caption on the Toyota site, it's a SR5.

I also saw this picture which looks like it too (different color though) and you can kind of see what looks like a rear spoiler...

And according to the caption this is a Sport edition.

So i'm guessing that the picture you are questioning, is a Sport Edition, because of the rear spoiler.

argumentative? i was like what!? no i'm not but i reread what i posted and haha i guess it did come out pretty um well smart arse. it must've been b/c i was thinking about how ugly the cladding was... haha sorry

 

hehe sorry didn't mean to come off to judemental there, and it's getting kind of late, I didn't mean any offense to ya Lord knows it happens to all of us

Geez I think that I'm the only one who actually likes the grey cladding on the SR5 and Sport editions... Oh well, more selection for me when I win the lottery and can buy one I personally don't really like the color matched cladding on the limiteds, just seems a little to fancy for a truck in my opinion.

ur right that the painted cladding looks kinda fancy/flamboyant, and being a Jeep owner of a Laredo model that has grey cladding I'm not against any unpainted cladding per se - I like the older 4runners with the cladding but this new 4runner's grey cladding is non-functional and looks like a tackon afterthought like on the nissan trucks and the isuzu vehicross, etc. its not THAT bad but if I'm paying 30-40grand for an automobile, I don't want them to save money by putting cheap materials on. You're right tho there are benefits to cladding - I hit a deer last week at 50mph and there was no damage to my Jeep just pinned the bumper cladding back in place. Unfortunately it wasn't so easy for the deer and I'm still upset about it ok its late and i have class tomorrow

 

It is a SR5. The limited comes standard with color-keyed front and rear bumpers, grille, cladding, door handles and license garnish. Also it is not a Sport b/c the pic that 91Runner displayed does not have the hood scoop.
