Lunar Rock Club

One of us. One of us. One of us.

 

what size tires are those ridge grapplers it came with?

 

Not one of us(I don't think) but spotted this Rav 4 yesterday at our beach house at gulf shores. I liked it

 

275/65/18

 

Thanks! That size actually looks good. Maybe I’ll just do that size then.

 

Just to clarify only the top picture with the oem wheels is 275 , the bottom tow pictures are 295/70/18

 

Right yea. The top pic looks good to me. I don’t wanna go much bigger than oem, these things are garbage on fuel economy already .

 

I kinda love the rav4s. I'd rather have one of those than a Subaru again if I ever downsize. I saw half a dozen lunar rock rav4s in the tetons and they are good looking cars. Tried to convince my housemate to get one in LR but she went with metallic grey instead.

 

I think Toyota should have just let the 21 year models with LR to be PROs only (Tacoma, 4Runners,sequoia, tundra) Why in a rav4 the same year? 22 or 23 then they should release the color to other models.

 

I'm pretty sure that the rav4 had the LR first though I don't know what year it came out

 

I think that's right. Personally I'm not a fan of LR Rav4. There are a few in town, one in my work parking lot. Looks best on Tundra, second best on Sequoia

 

You’re right. LR was on the Ravs first in 2019 adventure model, then XLE and XSE trims (I think) in 2020/2021.

 

I’m more TO’d off with it carrying over into the pro trim of the 22 MY

 

Honestly, with the number of non-pro army greens I see out there, I think I'm actually okay with it. I'm not completely sold on the redesign and those pretty trucks of ours will look distinctly different than the new gen, even in the same color.

 

I've seen few lifted rav4 and they look surprisingly good, I'm very curious on the Prime thou, I've been trying to drive one but just none available.

 

ok, thats it.. Pretty nice looking though.

 

I've seen a few Rav4 LR around here but so far no Tundra ones. Only Tundra TRD Pro's I've seen are white, black, and voodoo blue.

 

I'd drive that. I'd drive the hell out of it.

 

right? pretty badass. How can I talk my wife into driving this next to my Tundra?

 

Some have reported on here that the 280/70/18 Nittos do not rub or require flap removals.

 

Got the email today that the truck finally made it to the dealer, and ran on down. All docs are signed, agreed on a trade in for the taco etc. They are keeping it till tomorrow afternoon so that it can get the spray on bed liner completed as the factory cut the option so had to do it as a dealer add on, but tomorrow I can walk in and swap keys and be gone in 5mins. Pictures to come then once they clean her up. Excited the 2 and a half month wait is at an end and can enjoy the new truck versus the limbo of waiting.

 

Congrats. Just my advice....spend more than the "5 minutes" looking over the truck. Especially around the area when the dealer installed the spray in liner. Seen some issues before about botch jobs. But a thorough look over the vehicle is always good to make sure nothing crazy happened. Happy for ya and glad ya getting it

 

Excellent news man! Try to get some sleep tonight….

 

For sure, I already inspected one time so far, but tomorrow bed liner and final detail of the truck, so I’ll look it over again, but more so just meant not dealing with a 2hr paperwork back and forth shit show. Hopefully the liner goes smooth, it’s a 20 year company for here in AZ that they have do it

 

The fuel economy is really not bad, before regear I was getting same mileage as my rebel, and after regear I often get 17mpg on 35s.

 

Sounds good man! Good luck!

 

Well, I saw a 3rd gen Pro in Lunar Rock with my own eyes today, so it'll definitely be available for 2022, I personally think it looks good, but not as smooth as ours, but then I'm bias.

 

you didn't take a picture?

 

They kindly asked me not to, I think it'll look good on 37s with some faux-beadlock wheels like AEV style.
