What does SR5 mean? What's it stand for. My buddy and I at work are trying to figure it out. He thought that it meant it had a 5spd. But you can get an auto sr5. What gives?

 

Sport Runner 5 door? Same Runner $5 grand cheaper?

I was about to say to do a search.

 

hehe, well at least I got the Sport right :grin:

Since mine is a SR5, I guess I'll just call mine a Sport Rally 5 door. Although the V8 guys can actually claim Sport Rally 5 speed! So SR5 makes sense again

 

Mine is a Sport Rally 5 Speed. it's manual tranny.

So the V8's are available in 5 Speed manual? I didn't know that.

 

No, 5 speed auto. But they can still claim SR5 whereas I can't. :grin:

 

I guess. but for us "true" sport ralley 5 speeders, they can't make that claim. haha.

 

I wonder how many Toyota sales people know what SR5 stands for... I bet they'd say it's just a model name like RSX.

 

Never knew that. Huh.

I guess I need to take my truck to some rally events and get my drift on!

 

At this point, yeah... that's all it is now.

 

I remeber somebody telling me in the '80 on the early trucks and 4Runners it meant it had the stripe package and a 5 speed. Sounded kinda silly but every SR5 I saw back then had those.

 

always wondered what that meant....

maybe I'll be on Jeopardy someday and that'll be the final question!

 

I guess the boys with a V8 could claim Sport Rally 5 Litre

 

it was a package on the early 80's toyota's that meant sport-rally 5 speed, when it first came out, it was only available on 4x4 short beds for the first year as far as i know. but it came with a 22r 4 cylinder, 5 speed manual, bucket seats, a/c, kenwood stereo, deluxe gauge cluster with tachometer, and special graphics. but as time moved on, it turned into a trim package

 

....so what does it mean?

 

I believe we have a winner.

 

SPORT RALLY 5 SPEED !!!! I know this I know I know!

 

learn something new everyday

 

So does anybody know what SW4 stands for on Hilux models sold in several countries? We have two in the family in Brazil, one '01 crewcab 2.8 diesel turbo and a 3.0 gas '97 4Runner/Surf type--both have 5 speed manuals.
