When that music came on for the bed in the car. I cried of laughter

2:58 Late night visits with lady friends 🤣🤣🤣 for a little power nap!

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!

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. 😉

Awesome video! Just picked up an 03 and was blown away when I figured out the rear cargo “shelf”. Almost doubles rear cargo capacity!

Great little spot in the glove box to put/hide your handgun

Great video, loved your commentary on the usage of the tissue holder and waste receptacle, fun stuff!

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💪😂.

Just bought an 04 today....all these are bonus features no one mentions. Add value, cha-ching!!

I learned so much from this. Thank you so much!

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!!

Great tour made me laugh about the Kleenex... Nice nod to Doug... Stay safe and Healthy

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 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

I absolutely love my 2004 AWD 4runner. Thanks for these great tips I didn't know about.

Move over Doug demuro ;)

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.

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.

Thank you! Just recently bought a 2004 ... didn’t know some of these 🙂

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! 😊

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!

My 07 4Runner looks pretty identical to yours. Have 215K on it with V8 engine. It is quiet and solid. Very dependable! Love it!! 😎

This is so maddening I owned this car for years and never knew this! Great Vid!

I loved your video, it was super fun thank you!

I own a 2005 4Runner and I knew about, well, like 2 of these secrets 🤣 thanks

thanks for sharing my daughter has an 04 and runs great.

Really cool video. The cup holders were the days of Supersize me

LOL.... Love how you have explained the purpose for the tissue Box compartment and the trash can!

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!

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

Great tips. I will poke around to see what I will discover on my new SR5

Checking one out today, awesome video you cracked me up showing the passenger seat/bed capabilities 😂 learned some new things about these bad boys

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 🙇🏽

Wow the 4Runner is super well maintained. Thanks for the awesome review. Im gonna search for the Toyota Bags and Tissue Box👍

thanks for the video, as I learned lots of fun new uses for 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 have a 2003 Limited that I bought new and it is still my daily driver with 181K miles. I still love it!

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.

Very good tricks man! Thanks!

Awesome video thanks for sharing. I like the Four Runners. Stay well and safe my friend.

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,

Chris, I forgot to ask about the engine displacement and trans, powertrain. Mileage? Thanks.

What size battery do you recommend for a 4runner?

Another awesome video! Sweet looking Toyota 4Runner. I had a 2nd generation 4Runner, what seems like decades ago. :)

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/

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. ;-)

Ha-ha - Thanks a lot I own my about 17 years, and now I learned something I never new. Thanks Again !!! :)

Toyota always seems a cut above the rest. The Japanese make good stuff.

Had a '59 Rambler with lay down front seats. Both of them. Made for a good size bed for two people.

Great video! Fun to watch.

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.

That's some interesting things about the 4runner great video 👍

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!

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.

Thanks , nice video !

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!

The time locking feature (if you don’t open any doors) is quite common. It’s to prevent accidental ‘pocket’ opening of the car

This was excellent - thanks so much for sharing - who knew ???

Very funny sir, I like the passenger seat bit!😂

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?

Great video!

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!

Lovin the Corvan in Bronze in the garage!

Great video

Funny yet informative

I like that red and white vintage van in your garage too.

Whatsapp the length from behind the driver & passenger seat to the trunk. I would greatly appreciate the help considering a custom build

I enjoy watching !

What kind of stereo do you have? Not familiar with that full size deck

You forgot the starter position, where you just have to touch, release and the car cranks on it's own.

Thank's.

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! 👍

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??

I love 4runners! I can see you do to enjoy! 😎

I see what you did there! Clever!

Damn that corvair greenbrier in the garage !! 😍😍😍😍

That explains all the stains on most 4runners

I had an 05 and i just knew of one of those features.Now I have an fj cruiser wonder if it has some of those hidden features

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

Does anyone know if the 12v can be an aux ?

I have a 2008 4Runner and knew all of those tricks😊

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.

We love our 2003 4 runner v8 340000 miles still going strong. Is your clear coat still ok on top of the cab ?ours was not garage kept

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.

what year is that

Hi friend my 04 4runner got a 120 v sw on the dash but i never i fund the outlet

Nice one

The “lunch tray” up front is my handy dandy roll try lmao

Just subscribed!

Love your video. Thanks for sharing! Not offended AT ALL by your bed comments! Meant to be funny found it to be just that.

This is great!

I like the Corvair greenbrier in the background

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

How did you fit 6 people in this?

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.

Haha, I think you solved the mystery of the tissues and trash bag holder, didn’t know they made a pervert trim 😂😂

Another fun quirk is that the 4th gen 4Runner interior architecture lived on well until the end of the 2015 Tacoma.

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?

I must be really quirky lol 😂 because i love All the features of that Toyota.
