He never said he could.I have cylinder deactivation on my 2018 SIlverado. Best mpg over 50 miles driven-33mpg. You can't get that with your 4Runnner.

I'm sure back in the day when cars started to use newfangled electric starters, people complained about them not having a traditional hand crank too.There's nothing wrong with GM's system, but some people just like a traditional key. It's not like you're using a hand crank to start the car.
Why anybody would want to fish around for keys in their pocket verses pushing a button is beyond me. I have both systems in the two vehicles I own. I much prefer the push button start in my wife's Hyundai compared to the keys in my SIlverado.I'm sure back in the day when cars started to use newfangled electric starters, people complained about them not having a traditional hand crank too.
I love old cars. I have a 65 GTO and a 72 Chevy 4x4. I spend all day on craigslist looking at old car and old car parts, or contemplating 496 builds for the 72. That said, I daily drive a 2016 2500HD for the safety, reliability, comfort, refinement, etc.Why anybody would want to fish around for keys in their pocket verses pushing a button is beyond me.

We got guys on here hanging on to the "old ways" even when it doesn't make sense. It would be great if the Internet was around back when the switch over to electronic ignition, sealed fuel systems, ABS, 100,000 mile tune ups, etc. I can picture the commets now about how one couldn't adjust the fuel/air mixture, or how "pumping the brakes" being taken away from the driver. How can spark plugs possibly last that long?
It's nonsensical really.
I never knew "fishing around for keys" was such a big issue for some people. How big are your pockets?
Maybe not for men as much as for women and their purses. Do you know many women? And I don't mean in the biblical sense. Sometimes they have to dump out the entire contents of their purse just to find the keys.I never knew "fishing around for keys" was such a big issue for some people. How big are your pockets?
I totally agree. I shopped all three and the RAM, when you consider what you get for what you pay, was an easy, easy choice.At the risk of sounding like a Ram cheerleader.. anyone shopping trucks should test drive a Ram. you owe it to yourself.
A 2500 can be had for the same or a touch less.So it is fifty grand (ok, realistically 40-45 after discounts) when did that get to be cheap?
Thats how it used to be. My Avalanche is a Z-71 , skid plates on the front and on the transfer case. g-80 rear, bilsteins from the factory.I mean i remember when a Z71 was top dog, and you did not have to check for the little 4x4 to know it was a 4x4, they were ALL 4x4 with skid plates, posi and so forth...
Honestly if there was a "sticker delete" box, I would check it 99 out of 100 times...
Sounds like a good way to lose track of a prox key too.Maybe not for men as much as for women and their purses. Do you know many women? And I don't mean in the biblical sense. Sometimes they have to dump out the entire contents of their purse just to find the keys.
That is way too extreme of an environment to be driving a Santa Fe, even a Limited XL.In the winter time it is difficult/or impossible depending with gloves on to get keys out of your pockets. In the winter time, I put the Hyundais keys in my pocket, put my jacket and gloves on-go in to the garage and push a button to start the Santa Fe.
So-yes there are some advantages.
I pulled many 4X4 decals off trucks. My wife asked why.I think GMC gets the fancy "All Terrain" badges....

Then someone figured out they could make some money... and we got one wheel peel Z71's and even Tahoe and Suburban Z71s and they no longer have Bilsteins... Time marches on...

^^^ EXACTLY ^^^ugliest of the big 3
Grill and front is teribad.
at least they sorta fixed the wheel area. I say sorta.. its still odd.

If there's anything you want aluminum, it's the tailgate. Most likely to get beat up, and you can easily remove and replace! Light and easy to manage as well. The more I read about the Trail Boss in Custom trim, the more I like it.
