Actually, remote start, heated seats and mirrors, tow package with trailer brake controller, trailer assist (you place "Q code" stickers on your trailer and it backs it up for you, a feature I won't use), 18" wheels and a few other gadgets.

Yes I kept the 4 Runner, the dog won't let me get rid of it, he seems to prefer the ride. I've been driving it for a few days and I really like it, very different than the 4Runner, almost like cruising in a Cadillac.
All good features, depending on your location. I have all of those except remote start and heated seats. Hopefully I will not need those in CA.

I agree with you about the ride. It's much smoother than the Acura MDX (of course I'm remembering the 15 year MDX and not a new one). My wife commented the other day that it rides like a car. I have to admit that my recollection of how a pickup truck rides was based on my summer job with the parks department 30 years ago. Needless to say I'm happy with the ride.
