I got stuck on the Interstate last week for over an hour because of a pile up. Temp was upper 80's with 2 dogs in the back seat, 2024 Limited with AC on auto, and it kept us comfortable.
Never heard of it, but might be worth investing. Rodent damage can get expensive very quickly. I know a former work colleague who took a month vacation after she retired, and when she returned her year-old Camry Hybrid had so much rodent damage to the electrical systems it was totaled.
Definitely feel a difference. I'm old, so Comfort mode is my usual, but sometimes tick it up to Sport, and there is a very noticeable difference, especially on rough roads.
I absolutely love my 2024 Blue Crush Limited, and I think I would love it even more with full time 4wd. There weren't many available when I got mine, and I've had traditional 4wd before, so I'm comfortable with it, but the awd in my previous RAV4 was pretty sweet, and would be great in the Taco...
At least one of my vehicles has been blue at any given time since the early '80's, so I'm cool with a new blue, look forward to seeing one up close. But my Blue Crush is good for me for the foreseeable future.
I've washed my '24 Limited a lot since I got it in November, and it's been wet and muddy most of the spring, no issues at all. Tonneau leaks a little, but the sunroof is dry.
