I live above 6000ft. Regularly take the cruiser down to sea level when on road trips. Definitely notice a difference in power. Ive taken the cruiser up pikes peak a few times (14000+) and there is an obvious lack of power at higher elevations. Have I ever had a problem wheeling, towing, driving, at altitudes above 10k? Nope. Does that change the fact that I wish TRD made a supercharger for the LC, nope.

Ditto for me. Guess I'm used to it...and the 5.7 is obviously much better here than the 4Runner I had before.

Just got a '13 TLC less than a month ago and took a round trip to PNW at sea level...wasn't paying attention I guess but didn't notice a difference there vs here either.
