no room behind the spare foe the bikes.  I tried carrying the bikes on the front of the truck but they blocked the view.  Also tried carrying the spare on the front of the truck but it blocked the use of the winch so I just carry it in the bed of the truck.

It's been awhile since I've been on this site.  We've had a tow vehicle change since then....

Okay. If I had a naturally aspirated engine, then I would probably stick with regular also. Actually, I would rather have a Diesel, but the Escape suited our budget better.

I think it breathes just normally. No Turbo. I did try a couple of tanks premium crossing Wyoming. We did get a little better mileage, but it wasn't worth it. Just my experience.

Yes, those are wild ponies dining on grass while dumping tanks!

Was the 4Runner naturally aspirated or turbocharged? Ford specifies premium gas with the 2.0L Ecoboost engine when towing. I would not want to risk using regular, especially in mountainous terrain. If it was flatlands and lower speed, then it might be okay.
