I think they did a GREAT job on the 5th gen.
Mechanically, it seems to be nearly identical to the 4th gen 1GR-FE V6 (5th gen massaged more HP/TQ to bring it within a few of the 4.7L V8).
I hope that V8 tied to a 6spd is offered up in a year or so!
The glaring omission is the lack of center diff on SR5 and Trail Grade models. That is a disappointment but must be a carryover decision from the FJ Cruiser - the FJC lead was in charge of the 5th Gen.
Trail Grade:
RR diff lock
mechanical t-case lever
terrain control
crawl control
V6/5spd
Limited:
electronic t-case knob
torsen center diff
V6/5spd
all electric traction controls as TG
Trail Grade- $36500
Limited-$39000
I think a SR5 4x4 will be around $32000
nice vid of 5th gens going thru Rubicon
