Hood scoop is pleasant to have

Hood scoop is a pleasant thing to have , you’re looking at it the whole time while you’re driving

works if you dont live in a snow state.

otherwise a royal pita to clean snow off of it

our 23 tundra with the 2 V channels in the hood are a pita to clean snow out of. more of an inconvenience but still a pita for me

If you under 5’8 I think it will be a problem. Off-road I wouldn’t won’t it. But the 360 cameras will help end your worries

Has it always vibrated and shook going down the road? this is my first 4runner with one.

hood trembling seems to be a 6G tacoma and 4G 4runner exclusive so far

Yes, from the inside and outside too

it happens on the 5th gen also, its because they made them lighter to save weight. side effect they flutter more easily now. my 2004 4R didnt have this issue.

I personally don't like non functional hood scoops. Now if you opened the hood and saw a big intercooler sitting on top of the engine like a Subaru that would be really cool.

Looks cheap, restrict view, serves no purpose. Design engineer needs to be fired.

I love mine. Serves the the purpose to look good

Hood scoop is really very nice to have!
After installing the Hood Sound Proofing Mat the vibration lessened.

It should at least be optional or an optional delete. Then, those who want it can have it, others can delete.

I like the hood scoop. I know it's not functional, but it still looks pretty cool. If you don't like it then it's a good thing that there are six different trim levels without one.
