Smile Introduction

Well, I've been registered to the board for about a week now, and i haven't really done an introduction yet, so here it is. Attached is a picture of my house on any given day. As you can see, we love toyotas and 4runners! They rock! :rockband: Mine is the black '00 runner in the middle, all stock. Hope i don't get bashed on too badly If you look closely, you'll see a red '96 lurking in the garage. Hope to do some mods soon! thanks for all the advice and info so far...and for the future!

Welcome to the board!! Thanks for the pics.. Everyone's driveway should look like that. I've seen houses like that before. My cousin used to have 5 or 6 Yota's outside his garage on any given day. Everyone in school that had one would hang out there because they had some awesome tools.

Yep...good old toyotas. That's jus family that lives with me...you should see when we have a party. In addition to those, the most i've seen included 2 more 4runners, a TRD taco, another taco, a sienna, a corolla, and an '88 celica, all in the family. I guess we're such big toyota enthusiasts because my grandfather was a toyota mechanic.

Wow I see a daily driver, trail king, and parts queen all in one driveway . Question though (and I'm not picking on you): You said the red one in the garage is a '96 - but by wearing my patented Yotatech goggles I see that the top of the rear lamp is amber - this would indicate a '95 or under. Am I right or do I need to send Corey his goggles back?

Welcome to the forum.

I know where I'm going when I need spare parts for a Runner. A little midnight run to your driveway should solve it.

It's not me! It's my patented official Yotatech Toyota Identification goggles! Feel free to email Corey for a price quote .

Hey, I have a silly but curiosity filled question, do you happen to like TOYOTA's?

Don't mind me, just wondering.










Sorry. I was bored.

Anyways, WELCOME!

ya you were talking about how your garage looks. well my truck wanted to go wheeling all the time so I built it a place to sleep that will keep it thinking about wheeling all the time. I finally have an avtar
I'm just waiting for the city permit office to give the ok and I will finish the house and garage. It will be so niceto actually hace some cement so when I work on trucks and drop something I won't have to sift through the dirt to find it.
wish I had that many yota out front. don't worry about how your truck looks now they all started out this was and improved over time. there are so many nice people here to help you empty your wallet you wont know how to pay the rent...
