Installed mine and it feels like I’m driving a completely car. Throttle response is amazing compared to the stock feel. Best modification purchase on my 4Runner so far!
Jason M.
The pedal commander is amazing. Does everything that we need it to do. Works great on the 4Runner out on the trail overlanding.
Michael M.
It’s legit. It works. 4Runner actually moves when you touch the pedal now.
Robert c.
Best upgrade. Very customizable.
Anthony S.
Plug n play with a night and day difference. I love it. No issues over here!
Michael T.
Definitely made a difference; so much more responsive. I could feel the power increase after I added an aFe cold air intake and throttle body spacer. I'm impressed!
Steve
Ok, just put it in my 2011 4Runner today. Took all of 3 minutes to install. I’m not a big review person. Having said that, I will admit wholeheartedly that the Peddle Commander works. It actually works great! Completely gives normal acceleration if you like or you can beef it up several notches. I am using city mode at plus one for now. May even just use normal city mode cause I can see my heavy foot costing me more in fuel. I’m Amy case this product really does work, it’s easy to install and it gives you all the options you need. Worth every penny.

As it seems with everything these days, misrepresentation is rampant. This product (for a 2023 4Runner with less than 4K miles) was like most others, misrepresented, but I chose to purchase and give it a try anyway - everything I saw and read indicated that it could be installed in 5-10 minutes, WRONG, I think it took MAYBE 3! Very simple!
While I am disappointed with the "sticky" on the velcro pad provided as it keeps falling off, but as far as the actual Pedal Commander goes, it has worked flawlessly since install, and the results are very pleasing. I am running on the "City +2" setting and for my driving style it is plenty, but I did test Sport and Sport +, impressive!
I am very pleased and other than the velcro, it performs exactly as represented!!
Wes A.
Functions as promised - easy to install - made my 4Runner a lot more fun to drive

Unleashed all 8 in my 08 4runner! I just got it delivered today and plugged it in...and oh my did it make a difference!! Feels like Betty is alive and ready to run! This is my second 4runner with a V8 and love the truck, now I'm falling in love all over again. This is what has been missing, and like others have stated should have came like this from factory. The throttle adjustments are great, you actually get to fine tune it for your personal preference. I'm currently in sport 3, that might change but love that when I need some rabbit it's right there!!
Tried it in sport + and threw me back in the seat...hair trigger response, look out!
Really happy with how my truck performs with the pedal commander!! If I wanted great gas milage I would have bought a Prius...love my 4th gen "Betty".

My first Pedal Commander was for my ‘12 Tacoma after learning about why you need one and what it does. It COMPLETELY changed it!! Gave me more than I expected. So naturally I added one to the 2021 Challenger with the same result!! Beast mode!!
When I traded the Tacoma in for the 4Runner, Pedal Commander was ordered in a week. It’s a must have for these 4.0 Toyotas. Makes it drive like a normal car and more!!
Dave S.
Absolutely very satisfied with this product!!! I’m telling every 5th Gen 4Runner owner I (casually) meet and know so as not to appear too weird. This thing is AMAZING!!! It DOES NOT increase hp people. BUT it does increase or decrease the electrical input to your electric throttle that makes it feel peppier, or slower I guess, when you accelerate. I’ve only tried City 3 and 4 cause they were the most recommended “everyday” settings from the YouTube videos I’ve watched. I accelerate faster and when getting on the freeway I have better acceleration and it stays in gear longer and somehow shifts smoother too. It feels like what the 4Runner should feel like from the factory IMO. I haven’t reviewed my mileage yet, but the driving experience is so pleasing that I will never drive without it ever again. TOTALLY WORTH the $250-$300 it costs depending on where you get it. No snake-oil her folks. Buy one and change my mind. NOT A SPONSOR!
Joe .
Really woke the sluggish factory settings on the throttle response. It really makes the vehicle more fun to drive
Greg C.
Awesome product! Like most I was doubting it would have significant improvement. Mostly because I have purchased chips that didn't deliver in the past. I was shocked the moment I stepped on the gas. It's a completely better ride in my 4Runner. I have power that I didn't know it had. THANKS!
Jason L.
This isn’t my first Pedal Commander rodeo… I’ve used this product on my 2018 Silverado and 2021 Tahoe (officially done with Chevy… service dept r@pe common practice!), and now installed on my 2023 4Runner TRD Pro, which most know has amazingly annoying lag on throttle response. The Pedal Commander, set simply on City-2, has improved performance immensely… literally night and day change for the better!!!
ARTURO G.
Love it! That simple!
JAIME K.
Literally the best! No my slow acceleration. I keep it on sport plus and my gas mileage has gotten better as well! Best money spent!
Edgar B.
Immediately felt the difference in response time when accelerating my 2023 4Runner (which previously felt very sluggish and heavy).
I would recommend this product to anyone looking to add more responsiveness to their 4Runner (the installation was incredibly easy and fast).
Todd P.
I was very skeptical about getting one. I ended up taking advantage of the 4th of July sale and thought I’d give it a go. Installation was pretty easy and fast, I watched a couple videos on it as well. My first drive with it s sled the deal for me, it’s exactly what my 4Runner needed. City 3+ is perfect for me, I tried a couple of the sport settings and it seemed to be a bit much and not what I was looking for. I’m also getting another 1.3 miles to a gallon, not a whole lot but it is an improvement and eventually will pay for itself(many years down the road). Every mile counts though, especially when you add stuff to your rig. Really helps when getting on the highway, something I do a lot of. I am extremely satisfied with the purchase and only wish I’d bought it years ago.
Edward N.
Best investment I’ve made for my 4Runner! Your product does exactly what you claim,love it!
duncan f.
Really woke up my 2018 4 Runner 4 Liter. Prior to the Pedal Commander the vehicle performance was like an apologetic mixmaster. Now it's awakened.
Highly recommend...
James M.
Huge improvement in performance.
Paul B.
The difference in the throttle response is amazing!
Liz G.
Just what my 4Runner needed. Thanks!
Eric E.
Easy to install, works great
Patrick .
What a difference this makes in the 4runner! Love it should have bought this 2 4Runners ago
Ronald L.
Hooked it up yesterday, works great! The sticky Velcro to attach it to the dash is terrible, you should figure out a better way for the customer to attach it somewhere in the vehicle and make the wires long for better location mounting options!
Tim A.
Super easy to install and comes on with no problems I’ve been running it on city 2 or 3 and I can’t believe what a difference it makes—best purchase I’ve made for my 4Runner so far, the only reason I didn’t give it a 5 was because the lights are really hard to see.
jeff d.
Product works great. I wish the 4Runner came stock like this definitely can see the difference with Eco and the tune increase I like it a lot. As for the sticky thing I was having issues in the beginning with that until I moved it around on different surfaces on the car, but turned out to be really good.
James K.
I was hesitant buying this product because I have heard mixed reviews. Having an older vehicle(2012 Toyota 4Runner SR5) with high mileage(171k) and given my history of decision making I went a head and “pulled the trigger”. Well I’ll be dammed. This thing is a freaking hoot! Sport +4 and I’m getting 1mpg better(17.2)! Keep in mind I just got this thing and driving my truck like I stole it too! I highly recommend for fun and functionality. Hands down best plug in mod with easy user connivence I have ever come across!
P.s. I’ve been working in the automotive industry for the last 4 years. Front line if you will.
Sea K.
I have 2004 4runner v8 full-time 4WD. It's already has plenty of low end torque for me. However, there's a delay at higher speed, especially, above 50MPH. With Pedal Commander installed, I could feel the difference going uphill and at higher speed. The 4runner response more quickly. Sports Plus is awesome but too much for my 4runner as an overlanding vehicle and not a race car.
Brock P.
Great new off the line performance
Easy Install
The supplied velcro absolutely SUCKS!
2022 4Runner it was put into. Have been using it for about 2 weeks now. It’s a Night and Day difference. Especially if your 4Runner has a slight lift and over sized tires. I bought it directly from the manufacturer. Amazon was cheaper and I could have got it next day, but I didn’t want to deal with any unexpected issues that happens with Amazon products sometimes. In any case the only reason it gets 4 stars is because every time I came out to the 4Runner the sticky velcro attachment that I applied just to the right of the steering wheel column would have peeled off and the product would be just hanging there. After a week of this crap, bought some 3m heavy duty double sided tape. Not a problem now. I do live in Arizona, so that doesn’t help I know.
Brent S.
Great improvement over stock throttle response!
Darwin S.
All I can say is that it really really WORKS!
Rich N.
I knew going in what I was getting into, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. Installation was a little tricky... I would save the headache and remove the pedal assembly and remove the connector. All I can say is, the PC really makes my daily drive into work much more pleasing. I am VERY happy with the City +3 mode. Very responsive, neck whipping and makes it really fun to drive. I honestly haven't even gotten to the sport version yet. That will be soon. Amazingly, my mpg has actually increased from average 16mpg to 18mpg. I don't have to step on the accelerator much to get going. I must say this is one of the best additions I've done to the 4Runner.
Heather W.
The Pedal Commander makes so much difference in the responsiveness of my 4Runner. I highly recommend it!
JUSTIN L.
Ads online steered me the way of Pedal Commander.
It's works as advertised. Installed in less than 5 minutes. Works great on all modes. The Sport mode is fun and the Eco mode gets the job done.
Josh G.
Easy to install and what a difference. Everyone who owns a 4Runner needs this mod
Michael M.
Amazing pedal response. Totally changed the drive of my 4Runner for the better. Love the different settings.
Luis O.
What a great difference of the driving experience on my new 2023 4Runner Limited. No more delay on the throttle. I am buying another one for my old 2008 4Runner XSP I still own. I wish I knew about this product before.
I strongly recommend it if you are a car enthusiast or simply if you want a better performance of your car.
rodd w.
It was easy to install and yes it works. My 4Runner has a bit more git up and go! Great product
Bernardo M.
Super super !!!!!
Jeff M.
Easy to install without tools on my 2023 4Runner TRD Pro. I installed it inside the center console hidden, and use the Pedal Commander app to change the settings. On the street, I have settled in on Sport 3-4 for responsiveness, and off-road sometimes using Eco mode to gain better throttle control over wheel spin. Highly recommend this product.
Marcos J.
You know how in the movies they’ll slap the horse’s ass to take off?…….That’s this!
Mark T.
Super easy to install and sure makes my 2014 4Runner feel more lively and fun to drive. Around town my sweet spot is Sport+2. I’m glad I bought the mighty Pedal Commander (corny name) and would recommend it to other 4R owners.
Paul K.
Really perked up the truck; gets from a full stop off of the line better, all around better pickup and throttle response - seems to hold the gears a bit longer. Haven't tried anything but City mode with full throttle sensitivy set, but gas mileage does appear to be trending upward. The application is a brand new 2023 4Runner - 1st tank of gas.
john l.
Hey, I have spent a ton of money on Mods for my 4 runner, bumper, lights, front lift, Pedal Commander best one yet!
Parker H.
The pedal commander and cold air intake has made a huge difference in performance of my ‘22 4 runner. Totally recommend the pedal commander 100%!
Lawrence V.
Easy to install, fun to use! Best. Upgrade. Ever! Thanks, Pedal Commander!
Christopher K.
Huge difference it make car go big fast
Jesse H.
This item is a life changer for people who looking for more throttle response sensitivity 10/10
JT R.
Would rather have it installed, than not. Noticed a difference immediately after installation. Would recommend to friends and family.
Robert I C.
Had my 4runner since 2015 and finally gave into the hype for the pedal commander. It’s now March of 2023 and holy crap i cannot believe i didn’t get this when i bought the truck. It should have felt this way from the showroom floor! (currently running sport +3)
Lyza H.
Awesome! As advertised and happy with performance
Fredy S.
It’s actually really good,the only problem I am having is the sticking pad,I cleaned the surface really good but it comes off after a couple hours when 4Runner is just sitting
Andrew T.
Way better than I thought it would be. Necessity for 4runners.....Aloha
Jason C.
My wife wanted a 4runner and although a great vehicle, it is laggish. I did some research and purchased this for her and installed it at city #3 setting. I took it for a test drive and was blown away. I told her to drive it and let me know if we need to turn DOWN the setting. We ended up at city #1 for a setting and she loves it.
Both our phones have the app installed, works flawlessly so far, highly recommend to get rid of the stop light lag.
Scott B.
Love it! Gives me the improved throttle response I was looking for!
John G.
Does exactly what they say, really livens up the response. Daily driving is a far better experience, and it's nice to be able to turn it down to a slower response when the roads are slippery as well.
steve c.
Better response of throttle than I expected. Eco mode is not usable.
Chris b.
In my wife's words: "Chris! This thing is dangerous!". So much pep off the line now. Pedal commander worked great on our sluggish 2018 4runner.
radames c.
It’s doing the job, love it.
富康 林.
先前已有買過1個,但經常出現故障碼,變成跛腳;但是我很喜歡踏板指揮官的反應,所以我是第二次購買;這次我固定使用不敢行進間切換
Brian S.
So far so good . Different truck . Was real skeptical at 1st read a lot of reviews lots of YouTube videos. Just running on sport woke it up perfectly. Hope I don’t have any issues. I think it’s a great product and is as advertised !!
Michael S.
I really like this product, it has made the throttle response Change to where I don’t have to dump my foot into the gas pedal to get the truck to move. Now I can feather the throttle and just go. Installing it is a breeze. The app is awesome too! You can change on the go in real-time.
Trisha N.
I bought this for my husband and he can’t stop thanking me everyday for it. It truely was worth every penny. Gives the 4runner amazing power.
Dan G.
So it’s been a few weeks since I’ve installed the PC on my ‘07 4Runner SR5 V6. I was curious what to expect and concerned about gas mileage.
I have to say so far so good! Great for acceleration from stop and also on freeway. Shifting is smooth and clean at City 2. Haven’t been brave enough to engage sport. Maybe in the summer.
Even in snow city mode is good although I’ve been going eco for the deep stuff we get in the Colorado high country to avoid the increase in torque.
Gas mileage has been more or less the same. Maybe a small drop from acceleration uphill but I’ll take it all day long climbing 2x10K mountain passes to work and back home.
Overall a great addition and certainly more fun and very responsive to drive in general. Someday I’ll nut up and try the sport mode lol. Wish they made one for the wife’s Land Cruiser. Would buy again. Fun stuff.
Eric M.
Better than I expected!!
Michael G.
Definitely recommend it. Woke up my 4runner 5th gen.
Paul M.
Woke up my daughters 4Runner! Hated the throttle lag on it. Now you can hear and feel the difference with the pedal commander. She liked the 4Runner, but now my daughter loves her 4Runner.
Derek P.
Absolute game changer for my sons 2008 Toyota 4Runner SR5. Never burnt rubber until now. Sport+ mode 4. WOW! Suggest City mode for now!
Carrie A.
No decrease in gas mileage while playing in sport mode. Definitely had my eyes popping out of my head a few times when pressing the gas. She’s fast baby!
Aramis T.
It's definitely better than factory, easy to install. The glue to stick on Velcro doesn't hold well in cold weather. Overall, a good add on to your lazy 4Runner..
Stephen M.
Installation was very simple, came with everything one would need, and just read the install instructions. This product works exactly as advertised, my 4Runner now accelerates like a vehicle with 270+ horsepower should. I have been driving in sport mode with the level 2 setting for the first seven days since I installed the product. I did bump it up a few more levels in sport mode, but found for my driving style level 2 works best for me. If I had to change anything, I wish the cable was 12 inches longer so I could do a better job hiding the cable
Christian B.
Like all the other over the moon reviews I read that helped me pick the pedal commander, I will echo the same sentiment. I typically keep my hopes within check but this system really made a night and day difference. Throughly impressed with the pedal commander on my ‘23 4Runner.
Christopher Z.
This device fixes a simple problem on my 4Runner: a laggy throttle. The PC was easy to install, and since I've got bluetooth with the application, I just hid the PC behind my dash trim.
It works perfectly (for me) on the City +1 setting. That is enough response to get the old girl going. Happy with the product and the performance.
Linda J.
My son wants to buy one for his car
Peter P.
This was exactly what I needed for my stock engine 4Runner. Makes the power much more available and useable. I absolutely love it.
Steve R.
Three minute install very easy to complete and big difference in throttle response!
Jack S.
Love the pickup I get now with my car. I felt the change immediately. Only issue is after day 1 the adhesive for the Velcro isn’t holding and it won’t stay on my car now. That needs to be fixed. Can I get some new Velcro please? Lol
Shad K.
Extremely easy to install and use. The response is very noticeable. Haven’t had it long enough to notice any fuel increase yet.
Jim o.
Pedal commander totally made my 4runner limited come alive. Now it's really fun to drive, nice sporty feel.
Juan E.
Had some problems disconnecting harness from pedal but installation went nice
Kevin M.
Very simple install. Give a much needed increase to response times and much better throttle control than stock for the 4runner
Jason K.
This is a MUST if you own a 4Runner!!
The pedal is so laggy and this device makes it drive and feel like it should. I’m old school and just can’t get used to “fly by wire.” This device makes me feel like I’m in control of the gas pedal!!
william g.
The Pedal Commander is great It made a night to day difference there is no more lag. It even sames to have better shift points. I would recommend this to family and friends.
Chuck J.
Got held up in shipping but I guess for California it happens. Good setup work’s good had trouble unplugging wires from pedal but it was cool out and hard to release after that it went very smooth.
Keith G.
This thing is amazing. I couldn’t believe the difference
Cory J.
I was skeptical but believe the hype! It works. I'm so glad I bought it. Get your Pedal Commander today!
Laurence R.
I love how simple it was to install. Plus I saw a utube video first that helped even more.
Erik S.
I’m not sure I need the super charger from Magnuson now
Adam L.
Definitely peps up throttle
Dan R.
This really improved my start off the line from a stop sign. And it really helps on the freeway when you want to pass someone quickly.
Brandon G.
I read reviews of the Pedal Commander and I had to try it. I have a 4runner and everyone I talked up the hype on their 4runners. Don't get me wrong, I like my 4runner but the throttle response is horrible. I read up on the Pedal Commander and knew it was not for horsepower but just for the throttle response. I am very impressed with the Pedal Commander and what it said it was going to do. Improve the lagging when pressing the accelerator. Very simple to install.
Troy B.
2020 4runner here:
I researched a bunch of other options to address the throttle lag common with my vehicle.
Pedal Commander seemed a little more legit than the others, but I was still a little skeptical, BUT WOW, was I pleasantly surprised!
- Super easy to install - probably 4 minutes from start to finish.
- Phone App is very intuitive - extremely easy to use right away.
I feel like I've got a whole new rig with this thing - completely changes the driving experience - throttle lag is completely managed now. Have mine set to City +1 - crisp and smooth acceleration. I tried Sport and Sport+, but a little more than I need for daily use, lol. But awesome to have it if I need it!
Exceptional product. BEST MOD for the $$$ by far!!
Timothy S.
I installed my ‘Pedal Commander’ two weeks ago. I have it set to “Sport 2”. This install has dramatically changed the feel and throttle control of my 2021 Toyota 4Runner SR5P. It is a night and day difference. No more lag; immediate throttle response. I am truly loving this thing so far. I have it mounted out-of-sight for a clean install.
Larry O.
It took 30secs to install and set it to sport mode. The response is really snappy. The instant power is how they should come factory. I haven’t even tried the sport+ yet. No need, it’s awesome the way it is now. Great product
Tom F.
Received my Pedal Commander and immediately installed it on my 2020 4Runner. Extremely easy to install. No issues with connecting to the App.
I live in Colorado and am experiencing slow acceleration and very slow response time on the interstate.
After install I took my 4Runner for spin. BLOWN AWAY at the accelerator response time and improved acceleration. Sport+ mode is blast! Also greatly improves mid-range acceleration while traveling on the interstate.
100% recommend Pedal Commander.
