Yesterday I took my 6th gen 4runner up into the mountains for a day of hiking. My observations were that the 4cyl engine did great. I was at about 6500 ft of elevation. No issues climbing and decending was a breeze with the manual shift option in the 4runner. I switched between 2nd and 3rd gear depending on the grade. I will say I am not 100% in love with the way the engine sounds. Sometimes when there is no other noise in the cabin like music or talking you can definitely hear it. I could barely here the turbo when I was near a rock face and the sound was echoing off. Usually on first acceleration. Once again I was quite pleased with the performance.
