Hello, Im new. Good to be here...

joe97 · 09-23-2008, 04:58 PM

Hello. As everyone can see im new here. My name is Joe. At the moment i own a 1997 4runner SR5 (golden color letters hahaha). I really like this truck. Always wanted one of this. My other dream truck is the Land Cruiser 96 or 98
I've had a couple of toyotas in my life and for sure I can say these cars can go forever.
Anyway, hope I can learn lots of things here and... I have one question too, im looking for a place to buy the plastics that goes at the edge of the running boards, the ones that attach the running board to the fender..
thanx.

I guess this guys will be telling me this becouse running boards are not good when doing off road? its just that i'm not that much into off road so i kind of like the running boards very much...
But thanks anyway. I'll try the classified section...

hilux is what toyota calls the pick-up outside of NA and the 4runner is a hilux surf. up until the tacoma came out in mid 95 they were all the same otherwise... except for a diesel being available of course...
