London Ontario Here
I am in London Ontario and just purchased a 2003 4Runner V8 Limited. Prior to that I had a 1999 4Runner Limited. I have not got into serious off roading...........$50,000 vehicle, but would like to get into some driving on trails etc.
Where are you in Ontario?

I'm in the Peterborough area, and like yourself I'm looking for something mild, to start out with. Let's see what kind of response we get, maybe we can find something close to central for a gathering.
I know of a group of Cherokee folks who wheel out around south central Ont. and they'd be glad to join up. I'm not into excluding someone based on what they drive

i dont know if i'm pulling up this thread from way in the past, but i am from Hamilton Ontario and would like to go for a trail run aswell. My Runner in terms of suspension is stock, so i will need some easy trails to start off with.

Just wondering,
anyone interested in a K&N FIPK? I bought this not too long ago, and found out it is not very compatible with my supercharger. so yesterday i put my stock air filter back in for now.
you can find out more information about the kit here:
http://www.knfilters.com/FIPK/fipk.htm
the kit was/is great for a little added performance. i could honestly feel a little improvement, but dont expect too much. it sounded amazing. i loved the sound of sucking in air. i have only had it in a few months. it was installed and uninstalled by the toyota dealer. everything is back in its original box. i'm not too sure on price yet, let me dig up my receipt when i get home to see how much i paid. i think half of what i paid is fair??
here is a picture of it before i got my supercharger:
Thanks
oh and i'd prefer to sell it to someone in the area, that way we can do the transaction in person. you can see what you are buying. i dont have paypal set up, so i would only take cash. well i guess if absolutely necessary, you could paypal the money into my brothers account? does that work? so ya...looking for someone local, and looking for cash payment preferably. thanks

leebee: thanks for the invite! unfortuneately, this weekend is no good for me, but keep letting us know when you're heading out! i'll get out one of these times! also, the trails you hit, will it be alright for my stock 4runner? you have to start us off easy! i dont have a winch in case i get stuck!
Vato Loco: i'm pm'ing you as soon as i post this, so check your box.
Thanks

How about we organize a local meet first and then after we have can plan something in the next meet or something. Try to get everybody to introduce themselves and then on another day...we can hit up the trails. What do you guys think?
