This will make the 4Runner TRD Pro more capable than ever but don't expect it to rival the Bronco Raptor for desert-running capabilities.
We already know what to expect from the TRD Pro, as it will inherit the Fox QS3 internal bypass shocks from the Tacoma TRD Pro, as recently teased. In addition to traditional models like the SR5 and Limited, we're expecting a 2024 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro to be available at launch, along with a more road-biased TRD Sport derivative.
Naturally, a selectable four-wheel-drive system will be included.įor the new 2024 Toyota 4Runner, we're expecting the Japanese automaker to introduce some new trims to the lineup. This will utilize the same 2.4-liter displacement, aided by electrification, to generate upwards of 340 hp and 400 lb-ft, pairing this with a six-speed automatic transmission. Instead of the old five-speed automatic, a new eight-speed auto is expected.īut the big addition to the lineup will be a hybrid variant dubbed the 4Runner i-Force Max. In this incarnation, it produces 265 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque, making it 5 hp down on the current 4Runner's V6 but 32 lb-ft stronger on the torque front. The base one is expected to be a 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder from the facelifted Highlander SUV. We know this platform can accommodate wheelbases as short as 112 inches, and with the current 4Runner's 109.8-inch wheelbase expected to grow for the next generation, TNGA-F is the perfect evolution.Īs for what will power the new 2024 4Runner, we're expecting two engine options. This platform is shared with the Land Cruiser, Tundra, and Sequoia, meaning we could see an abundance of technology on board. Let’s all strive to do the right things.As with the new Tacoma, Toyota is expected to use the modular TNGA-F platform for the 4Runner. Maybe, I will just end by saying that I (and perhaps you) should consider if this was to be our last day on earth, is it better to look back on our time here and feel good that we did things right or that we did the right things. “The strive to gain, the push for power, and this will fail you in your final hour”. I was struck by a line written by Edward Crawford during a Ted Talk. I do not know if there is a summary for my ramblings. Is the conflict today – what is in it for me versus the greater good? They encourage looking beyond the present moment to a future worth striving for (described about Lincoln in the book by Doris Kearns Goodwin – “Leadership”). Transformational leaders inspire followers to believe in something larger than themselves. Peter Drucker and others have talked about the difference in doing things right (more transactional) as opposed to doing the right things for your organization, people, etc. Bass, in 1990, said transactional leadership is grounded in reciprocity. In the business & political world transactional leaders look to motivate by understanding the self-interest of their followers using carrot and stick. That might have rung true in 1900 but are we buying it in 2020? Are we not in conflict, as a society, between what is in it for me and my people versus what is best for people at large? Conflict – 2020 has brought out the best in us and the worst in us.Ĭonflict – Transactional leadership and transformational leadership. Teddy Roosevelt is credited with saying – “People don’t care how much you know, until they know how much you care”. I suppose the real question is could more people go back to work while less people are losing their lives from the virus? How are decisions being made and what is the motivation for those decisions? Conflict – if a vast majority of the scientific community are telling us that wearing a mask is saving lives, why would anyone say it is a personal choice to not wear a mask? Then again, if people are not working, they could lose everything. Think of it as wiping out every man, women, in child in the city of Providence, Rhode Island. COVID-19 has wiped out over 180,000 people in the USA. Not to be so profound, but where are we heading as a human race? What we do or don’t do is amplified due to the 2020 environment. Today, we are all sitting at a crossroad.
If I extend this thought it seems to me this could be about right and wrong and good and evil.
It also represents conflicts all of us have regarding the decisions we each make. I don’t presume to have any special expertise to interpret the deepest meaning of this Robert Frost poem, but since I have the power of the pen, for me today, it speaks volumes about the choices that we make in life and the resulting impact of those choices.
