Newbie to 4Runners...Saying Hi!!!

Hey all..just joined the boards, obviously, and wanted to say hey!!! I just purchased a '94 4Runner with Auto, 4x4, V6 (3.slow) , and I absolutely love this truck so far. I've been offroading for years and finally gave into the fact that Toyotas are some of the best out there for off roading, amongst other things. It's got 100k on it, which isn't bad for the year (about 10k/year from one previous owner)....I'm looking forward to learning a lot about my truck, getting it modified (quickly), and enjoying time back on the trails...I've taken about a 2 year leave from trail riding due to work, kids, and the like, but I'm ready to get back into it and figured "what better way?!?!?"....thanks for providing a great forum..I've been checking it out a while before I bought the 4Runner, and there really is some great info here.

Welcome to the board mate, it's a very friendly place here.
Glad to see you finally came to your senses about Toyotas
100k eh? She's still just a baby then. Can't wait to see what you figure you'll do to mod it. Any questions, just ask.

You might want to check and see if your headgasket has been replaced under the recall!

Welcome to the board! I came here a few months ago when I bought my 4runner and the people here are great. They helped me through my blown engine lift and all!

Your first mod should be to lose those running boards if they're still on!

Welcome!
