Talking new (to me) 06 PreRunner

I have to admit, I haven't ventured into this section much in the past, but I probably will more often now. I traded my Ford in today and drove this baby home













I don't have any major plans for mods, because the entire purpose of getting this was to drop my monthly payments (which it's going to do substantially for both paying for the truck in general, insurance, and gas, compared to the 2010 F150 I just got rid of), so I'm going to TRY not to burn too much money on it, lol. That's kinda the reason I opted to get a 2wd instead of a 4wd... should keep me out of trouble... should...

I believe so. But the 2wd Prerunner models just sit up as high as the 4wd's. If I'm not mistaken, they basically have the same suspension, just without the front drivetrain.

No 4wd pre-runner. A pre-runner is a pre-runner because it is the same chassis and suspension, minus the t-case and front drive-line. It would be counter intuitive to have a 4wd pre-runner (for the name anyways) Most desert pre-runners ARE 2wd, and thats what makes them pre-runners. Pre-runner now seems to be used more synonymous with any desert type vehicle....

ah yes, upon further investigation, it would appear that all Prerunners are 2wd

Holy Crapula, Super Bleeding Man! lol....

Wow, that thing is SO NICE, ... my favorite color in these, too. Like the black and a green one I saw, ...but this Silver is just the 'Sport-Classiest' one IMHO!

Enjoy it! No wonder your dash is so sweet, ....it's an almost new one! lol.
