Don’t forget that some models have curved mirrors installed on the rear inside pillars by the rear window. You can look into the mirrors and see on either side of you when trying to back out of a parking space with vehicles parked beside you and blocking your view. Also, in the back cargo area there are little knobs that can be used to hang grocery bags on. It will prevent the contents of the bags from being tossed about when driving.
I have a 2006 - love it. You missed two small points. When you open the glove box and squeeze in the sides you get easy access to change the cabin air filter. Also when you remove the divider in the coffee cup holder you can lift out the rubber mat easily to clean it. I could tell you didn't know that one. Ha!
Another one he missed is that you don't have to hold the key to start it, you can turn it to crank and let go and it will keep cranking until it starts. So like a precursor to push button start!
Thanks for showing us those features. I wish that Toyota would have videos like this when you purchase your vehicle. I’ve had mine 14 years and just learned about the seat to bed conversion and sliding the cup holder left or right for drinks. Great assumption on the purpose of the reclining seat, trash can and tissue holder. Pretty sure that was the purpose of the design. 😉
I knew everything....or so I thought, until he moved the cup holder to the left! There was a cool thread in one of the 4runner forums about all the things people had found inside the hidden glove compartment when they bought theirs used, lol
I'd still rather spend more on gas in a T4R than all the parts and repairs that american cars constantly require. I buy Toyota because I prefer spending more time IN my truck than UNDER it.
My sister randomly brought me my first car (2006 Toyota 4 runner) and I’m loving it , just learning how to drive at 23 years old 😅but great video and found out the reason why I couldn’t open my trunk (I was holding the button while trying to lift 😂) also the passenger chair turning into a bed ....thank you very much 🙇🏽
I have a 2007 limited and it comes with a power outlet inside the center armredt5. Also, this is a great alternative to a pickup You have plenty of passenger room, cargo capacity and since the passenger seat lays flat and rear window lowers, you can haul long pieces of lumber or other items from home depot without having to tie it down!
I prefer to haul a few 2x4s or pipes on the roof rack. I carry 1" nylon cam buckle straps for that. A trailer is the best option for plywood. A $600 folding Harbor Freight trailer can haul 1700 pounds... more than my old Tacoma could haul, and a stronger trailer can haul 5000 pounds, which is the towing limit of my 2005 V6 4Runner.
I have an '05 4Runner and I love it! Many of the mechanics at the Toyota dealership where I have it serviced often ask me if I want to sell it....No!!! :-) Thanks for that great video.
The seat bed isn't just the passenger seat. The driver's seat does it as well. The one that took me the longest to find is the tray that slides forward it from under the rear seat armrest cupholders. I never have the armrest down so I never looked
Man....16 years I have had my 05 Runner and I NEVER new about the front seat becoming a bed. I did know the rest...but the BEST ONE I had no idea about. THANKS for pointing this out!!
I permanently removed my back seats and built a deck where they once were. Now I have plenty of storage, and the entire back is a bed. I don't miss my back seats at all.
Nice! Thanks for sharing. I have the same '04 SR5. Bought a few years ago from original owner 30K miles. Pristine condition. The rear center console has a pop out cup holder.
Never a dull moment with Ecc videos. This Suv is packed full with some features am sure most owners may not even know about. Chris I would have love you to touch the power train. The front seat /bed is cool man💪😂.
I think that part about the passenger seat turning into a bed was very well played. The cheesy low buck hotel bar jazz just made it perfect! I laughed heartily from that. It's too bad that Toyota has halted production of these wonderful vehicles. Personally, I would rather have that mid 60s Corvair Greenbriar van! Now that was a very underrated vehicle!
All I can say is the tissue box and trash bag holder and fold down seats have many uses for instance lol my allergies 🤧 those tiring camping drives to take a break or just to look up at the stars and enjoy the evening with your loved one. Great Vid appreciate it!
I too have the 4th gen 4Runner. I knew most of these tips BUT THAT BED TIP! Will help so much! My sister is always tired when I take her around on our trips
The driver side door also has a function where if you use the key to unlock the door it will unlock only the driver door... If you turn it twice it unlocks all doors
One more feature missed. In the center of the back seat, you can actully pull out the center of the seat, then in the center of that flap, you can actully pull out a hidden double sided cup-holders
Just found this video as I was researching fixes for the well known cracked dash. Thank you for creating it, very helpful. Your observations along with the outstanding condition of your 2004 4th Gen is yet another reminder of why I am so glad I acquired a 2004 SR5 with the V8. I prefer the 4th Gen full time 4 wheel drive with V8 over the 5th Gen where only the Limited offers full time 4x4 and with no options for a V8. I’ve invested $$ rebuilding various systems but well worth it. Again, thank you for posting this video. Sincerely,
I also have the 2004 V8, Toyota had a recall on the cracked dash. My car had already been at least 10 years old or maybe more and they replaced mine. I had a very tiny crack I did not know about until the dealer pointed it out. You should look into it,
I had Toyota replace the entire dash because of the cracks. It is a safety, airbag recall, however it took one year for the order to come in and one day for the install. hope this helps
New sub from Spain, I like your style! Shame only early 90’s 4runner generation was available here in Europe, the lack of a diesel engine made it near impossible to sell.
I had no idea about any of those features, each time I watch one of your videos, I learn something. That's awesome! Keep it up! That trash can thing is actually really clever. We use to own a CRV and we kept a small trash can jammed in that same spot... odd thing with the CRV (it was a 2013 model) they actually included a legit table in the back. You could pull it out, fold out the legs and set it up like any other folding table. It was a really neat feature, but honestly, I don't think we ever used it. Wow, only 1 video away from May!
Heya. I have a 2006 Toyota 4runner with 275k miles on the chassis and frame, and 171k on the engine, transmission, and drivetrain (2007 parts). My engine has the check engine light, VSC Off, VSC TRAC, and traction control light lit up like a Christmas tree on my dash. Also, at very low speeds and at low throttle, this sound from exhaust (I don't know if my cats are shot) is like a high-pitched rattling sound, NOT like a rock bouncing around on youtube videos you'd look up online about shot cats. My O2 sensors are all new and have been replaced WITH spacers on them. I took my car to the local automotive shop, they said to fix this they would need to mess with the exhaust, put new O2 sensors on and take the spacers off, then diagnose from there to see what's wrong. It's going to be expensive from them... I also am wanting to do this myself... I have a mechanic friend that told me that my cats need to be replaced but I'm not so sure it's the problem just yet... Any suggestions?
Yeah, true. I tend to think Toyota is a little higher then they should be. BUT..., almost 20 years later I still have this 4Runner and it looks and drives pretty nice.
I was looking at other videos of 4th gen with lift install but when I watch this and the quirk with the convertible bed , I think I am sold! Lol, great quirks!
I didn’t know about the passenger seat and always wondered what the hell went in the underside of the center console. Question though, in some of the pictures your rear passenger side seat looks reclined?
That was interesting. Another nice thing about the seat folding down is you can fit 8 foot 2x4's in there. But like many of your videos you gave us another perception of what can be done with it. ;-)
The 30 seconds to open the door after pressing unlock on the key fob is for accidental pocket presses. It does the same thing on my 08 Scion XD. Double key turn will unlock all doors even on my Dad 2001 Tundra.
Hi Chris! People can say what they want about buying foreign, But one cannot deny the quality product you get when you buy a Toyota or Honda. They run forever.
Thanks man for checking out the 4Runner video I did. That van in the garage is a 1964 Chevy Corvair. The van version is called a Greenbrier. I have a few videos on my channel about that van if you'd like to see some more of it.
I have 2006 sr5 v6 for sale I'm second owner..no rust no smell interior great shape.. original from Oklahoma...it's now in Georgia shipped through CarMax..I don't drive it often I bought a 4cy Mazda for work commuter car.. bright silver metallic and grey leather interior.. getting harder to find in this great shape... everything works..$12995 if interested! 134500 miles some paint chips n door dings nothing major shines like new!
East Coast Classics Great video/I love Toyota's thank you for sharing this information on your 2004 toyota 4runner/I myself own a 2001 toyota camry Le I am the second owner it runs great looks great how ever it is a florida car this camry looks and runs better then some new cars/
Oh goodness, I've had my '08 4runner for 5 years. I've always thought there was something faulty with the keyfob lock mechanism because sometimes it would re-lock just as I got to it! I never knew about its 30second timer!
The Walmart Bags with handles can be put in the trash bag holder by looping the top of the bag over the loop then pushing the bag handles through the little notches in the bottom side of that loop. And our 2006 has small mirrors in the inside upper corners of the rear roof post that gives you the ability to look in the windshield mounted mirror and look at them to see to the sides of the rear of the car to prevent you from running over people in the parking lots. And see oncoming cars if your eyesight is good. We have over 260K miles on ours and it still drives and looks like a new one onff the show room. We are about to go across Texas in ours and have no fear it won't make it there and back.
So true. I tend to think 4Runners and most Toyota's are a little overpriced but really, I've had mine almost 20 years now. A little extra in upfront costs but long, long lasting. Seems fair to me!
Mine is due for a paint job to the point the clear and base coat is done from the sun. The car is mechanically sound and trust worthy. You forgot to mention the rear window wiper turns on without notice when starting the vehicle meaning the battery is at low capacity. That feature I really like.
I use plastic grocery bags in the folding trash can. The owner's manual says the frame is designed for grocery bags but it's not very intuitive. Pull the loop handles of the bag up through the frame, wrap them over the side arms and secure them in the hooks on the underneath side of the frame. They aren't well secured, but good enough. There are non-Toyota small tissue boxes that fit the center console, and both front seats can be made into a bed by removing the head rest and folding the back to the rear, not just the passenger seat. This is true fot power seats or manual seats.
Great now everybody's going to know about that secret compartment! Toyota Tissues and Toyota Trashbags must be expensive. I take the lower part of the back seat out and fold the backs down for car camping inside.
my back lock doesn't roll down the window. i think i prefer it that way. the switch up front still works, so it's not completely broken. the fob does nothing at all, so that'll be another 30-some bucks
Jorge Lastra no it definitely is a cool feature. Something more cars should incorporate imo. Cuz for road trips one could sleep while the other drives.
That Toyota of yours is in remarkable condition for a 2004. You have obviously taken superb care of it. It looks brand new in and out especially being a Delaware vehicle. Greatly admire your channel. Still jealous of your Mercedes and the PPV Impala. Would love to find one of those here in Florida in the condition yours is in
Wow, thanks so much for the kind words and yeah, Delaware weather here isn't kind to cars. And thanks for the compliment about what I'm doing here on CZcams. As for auctions near you, be sure to check out GovDeals. They host the auctions for a bunch of towns and cities in FL so hopefully there's some here you. Good luck!
Don’t forget that some models have curved mirrors installed on the rear inside pillars by the rear window. You can look into the mirrors and see on either side of you when trying to back out of a parking space with vehicles parked beside you and blocking your view. Also, in the back cargo area there are little knobs that can be used to hang grocery bags on. It will prevent the contents of the bags from being tossed about when driving.
Another thing I did not know, gonna check mine
I use those mirrors every day. Rather handy.
When that music came on for the bed in the car. I cried of laughter
Haha, glad you liked it. Thanks for watching!
u aint the only one :D :D :D
😂😂😂

2:58 Late night visits with lady friends 🤣🤣🤣 for a little power nap!
That's my code word with the misses for some smooching time :)
Didn’t know that about the passenger seat. I guess I’m moving out.
@Jude Kole just shut the hell up you morons
Awesome video! Just picked up an 03 and was blown away when I figured out the rear cargo “shelf”. Almost doubles rear cargo capacity!
Thanks for showing us those features. I wish that Toyota would have videos like this when you purchase your vehicle. I’ve had mine 14 years and just learned about the seat to bed conversion and sliding the cup holder left or right for drinks.

Great little spot in the glove box to put/hide your handgun
Drugs
My 07 4Runner looks pretty identical to yours. Have 215K on it with V8 engine. It is quiet and solid. Very dependable! Love it!! 😎
mine is v8 as well with 340,000 and counting!, runs like new
I had a brand new '99 4Runner what seems like a lifetime ago.
It had the best of both worlds;
A V6 with the fuel economy of a V12. lol
-Chuck
I'd still rather spend more on gas in a T4R than all the parts and repairs that american cars constantly require. I buy Toyota because I prefer spending more time IN my truck than UNDER it.
@@AmbientShades Wow
Power of a 4cyl and economy of a V8 but mine is still running good 20 years later with zero major repairs. Just fluids filters and consumable repairs.
@@peterp8959 no timing belt or water pump replacement?
I absolutely love my 2004 AWD 4runner. Thanks for these great tips I didn't know about.
This is so maddening I owned this car for years and never knew this! Great Vid!
Just bought an 04 today....all these are bonus features no one mentions. Add value, cha-ching!!
Great video, loved your commentary on the usage of the tissue holder and waste receptacle, fun stuff!
Don't need a tissue if she.... "s*****s" ! ;>) YOU KNOW IT"S TRUE ! Lol!
Mine is a 2004 limited I love it. It still travels far and sounds good as new. I bought it second hand from the first owner.
My sister randomly brought me my first car (2006 Toyota 4 runner) and I’m loving it , just learning how to drive at 23 years old 😅but great video and found out the reason why I couldn’t open my trunk (I was holding the button while trying to lift 😂) also the passenger chair turning into a bed ....thank you very much 🙇🏽
That is awesome about getting a 4Runner and it sounds like you have a pretty great sister too. Enjoy that baby and enjoy driving too.
LOL.... Love how you have explained the purpose for the tissue Box compartment and the trash can!
with a straight face too :)
I have a 2007 limited and it comes with a power outlet inside the center armredt5. Also, this is a great alternative to a pickup

A $600 folding Harbor Freight trailer can haul 1700 pounds... more than my old Tacoma could haul, and a stronger trailer can haul 5000 pounds, which is the towing limit of my 2005 V6 4Runner.
Toyota always seems a cut above the rest. The Japanese make good stuff.
Move over Doug demuro ;)
Thank you! Just recently bought a 2004 ... didn’t know some of these 🙂
I have an '05 4Runner and I love it! Many of the mechanics at the Toyota dealership where I have it serviced often ask me if I want to sell it....No!!! :-) Thanks for that great video.

I own a 2005 4Runner and I knew about, well, like 2 of these secrets 🤣 thanks
I have a 2003 Limited that I bought new and it is still my daily driver with 181K miles. I still love it!
I permanently removed my back seats and built a deck where they once were. Now I have plenty of storage, and the entire back is a bed. I don't miss my back seats at all.
Nice! Thanks for sharing. I have the same '04 SR5. Bought a few years ago from original owner 30K miles. Pristine condition. The rear center console has a pop out cup holder.
And the if you pull on the front edge, it extends into a tray you can keep food on as well
thanks for sharing my daughter has an 04 and runs great.
Great tour made me laugh about the Kleenex... Nice nod to Doug... Stay safe and Healthy

That explains all the stains on most 4runners

Thanks for the sub and thanks for checking out my little piece of CZcams here. I appreciate that and the comment too!
Ha-ha - Thanks a lot I own my about 17 years, and now I learned something I never new. Thanks Again !!! :)
I had no idea about any of those features, each time I watch one of your videos, I learn something. That's awesome! Keep it up!

Always great to hear from you when you check-in, Alan. Thanks bud and stay safe!
Do you know if it's included with the 2012 CRV EX? model?
I learned so much from this. Thank you so much!
You forgot the starter position, where you just have to touch, release and the car cranks on it's own.
Love this feature!
Had a '59 Rambler with lay down front seats. Both of them. Made for a good size bed for two people.
I love this generation. I want to drive it forever. I want to be 120 years old and still driving my 4th gen 4runner.

Thank you very much for sharing!! I 💚 my 2003 Toyota 4-Runner!! I’ve had it since 2015 and it’s been a fantastic vehicle 🚗!! Have a great day! 😊
Really cool video. The cup holders were the days of Supersize me
Wow the 4Runner is super well maintained. Thanks for the awesome review. Im gonna search for the Toyota Bags and Tissue Box👍
👆 Found the late-night lady-friend that visits.
I will shop around for 4th Gen 4runner now, ill will come in handy for my wife and I on date night!!.. lol. Thanks for the video Chris! 👍
Good luck! Just like anything Toyota its so overpriced, especially the 4runner.
Yeah, true. I tend to think Toyota is a little higher then they should be. BUT..., almost 20 years later I still have this 4Runner and it looks and drives pretty nice.
If you get an older 4Runner check the frame because they rust out.
I was looking at other videos of 4th gen with lift install but when I watch this and the quirk with the convertible bed , I think I am sold! Lol, great quirks!
I didn’t know about the passenger seat and always wondered what the hell went in the underside of the center console. Question though, in some of the pictures your rear passenger side seat looks reclined?
That was interesting. Another nice thing about the seat folding down is you can fit 8 foot 2x4's in there. But like many of your videos you gave us another perception of what can be done with it. ;-)
Haha, funny. Clearly your woodworking background is showing through.
The 30 seconds to open the door after pressing unlock on the key fob is for accidental pocket presses. It does the same thing on my 08 Scion XD. Double key turn will unlock all doors even on my Dad 2001 Tundra.
When you showed the front seat laying out flat, it looked like the rear seats were in a reclined position??? is that also a feature??
The back seat only reclines on models equipped with third row seating.
I like the Corvair greenbrier in the background
I have a 2008 4Runner and knew all of those tricks😊
Hi Chris! People can say what they want about buying foreign, But one cannot deny the quality product you get when you buy a Toyota or Honda. They run forever.
Lmfao bed in the car part was hilarious
This was excellent - thanks so much for sharing - who knew ???
Glad you enjoyed it
0:46 that’s my rolling tray
Haha, good one!
I like that red and white vintage van in your garage too.
Thanks man for checking out the 4Runner video I did. That van in the garage is a 1964 Chevy Corvair. The van version is called a Greenbrier. I have a few videos on my channel about that van if you'd like to see some more of it.
I have 2006 sr5 v6 for sale I'm second owner..no rust no smell interior great shape.. original from Oklahoma...it's now in Georgia shipped through CarMax..I don't drive it often I bought a 4cy Mazda for work commuter car.. bright silver metallic and grey leather interior.. getting harder to find in this great shape... everything works..$12995 if interested! 134500 miles some paint chips n door dings nothing major shines like new!
Another fun quirk is that the 4th gen 4Runner interior architecture lived on well until the end of the 2015 Tacoma.
Very good tricks man! Thanks!
East Coast Classics Great video/I love Toyota's thank you for sharing this information on your 2004 toyota 4runner/I myself own a 2001 toyota camry Le I am the second owner it runs great looks great

Oh goodness, I've had my '08 4runner for 5 years. I've always thought there was something faulty with the keyfob lock mechanism because sometimes it would re-lock just as I got to it! I never knew about its 30second timer!
Another awesome video! Sweet looking Toyota 4Runner. I had a 2nd generation 4Runner, what seems like decades ago. :)
Very cool! Those second and third Gen 4Runners are some of my favorite SUV's.
I agree. Your 4Runner has features my 4Runner didn't have, that I wish it had. Oh well, I loved my 4Runner.
I get the 4runner and the quad runner confused. Who makes the quad runner? Thanks.
Checking one out today, awesome video you cracked me up showing the passenger seat/bed capabilities 😂 learned some new things about these bad boys
As an Option , They also came with a mirror above the fold down seat .
( and that little flip down thingy on the console ?
Its for holding Condoms )
Love your video. Thanks for sharing! Not offended AT ALL by your bed comments! Meant to be funny found it to be just that.
The Walmart Bags with handles can be put in the trash bag holder by looping the top of the bag over the loop then pushing the bag handles through the little notches in the bottom side of that loop.
And our 2006 has small mirrors in the inside upper corners of the rear roof post that gives you the ability to look in the windshield mounted mirror and look at them to see to the sides of the rear of the car to prevent you from running over people in the parking lots. And see oncoming cars if your eyesight is good.
We have over 260K miles on ours and it still drives and looks like a new one onff the show room. We are about to go across Texas in ours and have no fear it won't make it there and back.
It's a very nice suv Toyota have pretty nice vehicles i owned 2 and I liked them never Had problems
So true. I tend to think 4Runners and most Toyota's are a little overpriced but really, I've had mine almost 20 years now. A little extra in upfront costs but long, long lasting. Seems fair to me!
No longer required a trip to the hotel I like that!!
Yeah I got one. Fun to drive.
I like 4runner.
I have one and i will always buy 4runners cause i love it
Haha, I think you solved the mystery of the tissues and trash bag holder, didn’t know they made a pervert trim 😂😂
Lovin the Corvan in Bronze in the garage!
Great tips. I will poke around to see what I will discover on my new SR5
I must be really quirky lol 😂 because i love All the features of that Toyota.
The “lunch tray” up front is my handy dandy roll try lmao
Haha, although your comment would have been even funnier a week ago when it was 4/20.
Mine is due for a paint job to the point the clear and base coat is done from the sun. The car is mechanically sound and trust worthy. You forgot to mention the rear window wiper turns on without notice when starting the vehicle meaning the battery is at low capacity. That feature I really like.
I have a 2005 215,000 still going strong. I bought it brand-new 6 miles on it I'm hoping to keep it going until 300,000.
Had my 2006 since new, so 14 years. Didn’t know about the extra glove box or making the passenger seat into a bed.
Works for pass & driver, Toyota calls it social seating. Great for Drive In Movies & more head room
I use plastic grocery bags in the folding trash can. The owner's manual says the frame is designed for grocery bags but it's not very intuitive. Pull the loop handles of the bag up through the frame, wrap them over the side arms and secure them in the hooks on the underneath side of the frame. They aren't well secured, but good enough. There are non-Toyota small tissue boxes that fit the center console, and both front seats can be made into a bed by removing the head rest and folding the back to the rear, not just the passenger seat. This is true fot power seats or manual seats.
Great now everybody's going to know about that secret compartment! Toyota Tissues and Toyota Trashbags must be expensive. I take the lower part of the back seat out and fold the backs down for car camping inside.
That's some interesting things about the 4runner great video 👍
Thanks 👍 man and thanks for checking in too!
Very funny sir, I like the passenger seat bit!😂
I loved your video, it was super fun thank you!
I love 4runners! I can see you do to enjoy! 😎
my back lock doesn't roll down the window. i think i prefer it that way. the switch up front still works, so it's not completely broken. the fob does nothing at all, so that'll be another 30-some bucks
I'd like this secret storage in tje glovebox👍
yeah toyota made sure if you would be secure with that one.
@@manaphyonfire no matter,it sure is a cool feature.
Jorge Lastra no it definitely is a cool feature. Something more cars should incorporate imo. Cuz for road trips one could sleep while the other drives.
Thing is, it’s been mentioned so often it’s no longer a secret
Nice Doug DeMuro reference at the end. Small world...
Doug is the man!
thanks for the video, as I learned lots of fun new uses for vehicle
I have one but just have the key 🔑 can I buy the remote from the dealer I don’t know if this car comes with alarm., do you know?
Nice looking 4runner. I'm really wanting to get a 2020. No rush with everything that's going on but I'm hoping to get one by the end of the year.
Great video! Fun to watch.
Glad you enjoyed it!
That Toyota of yours is in remarkable condition for a 2004. You have obviously taken superb care of it. It looks brand new in and out especially being a Delaware vehicle. Greatly admire your channel. Still jealous of your Mercedes and the PPV Impala. Would love to find one of those here in Florida in the condition yours is in
Wow, thanks so much for the kind words and yeah, Delaware weather here isn't kind to cars. And thanks for the compliment about what I'm doing here on CZcams. As for auctions near you, be sure to check out GovDeals. They host the auctions for a bunch of towns and cities in FL so hopefully there's some here you. Good luck!
@@hullinger Thank you sorry meant to say your Caprice PPV
You just saved me a lot of money on hotels....thank you. 😭😭
Haha, happy to help!
What kind of stereo do you have? Not familiar with that full size deck
wow. the cup holder 'wings' and the trash bag holder: I never knew... THANKS!
