Off Roading in the heat

On April 8th, I have an appointment with my local tuner to flash the OTT Tune onto my 6th Gen 4Runner (and 5th Gen to show ol' girl some love), and maybe my Tacoma TRD Pro. I was sending him emails back and forth and I am very excited to get it done and see how it is for both vehicles and maybe my 4th Gen Tacoma as well. I am hesitant about the Tacoma becuase it is a lease and it is a hybrid. But their numbers and reputation with the last-generation trucks are promising. The new 4Runner already drives so much better than the 5th and I assume with this new tune it will be even better with the added horsepower and torque. The nice thing about this tune is that it can easily be removed from the vehicle if needed, without leaving a trace on the ECU. Here is a chart he provided me to show their proven dyno numbers both non-hybrid and hybrid models. Anything I should be cautious about? Non Hybrid Hybrid

How many of you have been in 100 plus degree weather on the trails? Im honestly not a big fan. I tested out the taco in some insane amount of heat up in Joshua Tree and I was impressed how much the truck handled with ease. The truck was forsure working over time on the trails, but no over heating issues at all. Have you guys had any issues with overheating?
