I had a huge stretch of open road and I decided to open it up and I hit 90!!

I may have had a LITTLE more room, but I think the 4Runner is gonna top out about 95...

That's okay dude, I used to have a 1980 Chevrolet Citation, and going anywhere above 70 was always scary. The car would shake from like 64-73, then miraculously stop.
It actually did alright at speeds above that.

ahahahahah.... try smaller tires... then your speedo will run optomistic and you can top 100mph (well..it will read 100mph).

You really need a typhoon. if it werent' soooo damned clunky.

I've had the F-150 up to 103 (speed limiter), except I had a trailer attached, and a 2800lb car on the trailer!
