Man that thing is an eye sore, I'll just take it off your hands so you don't have to deal with it any more.


Seriously though, she looks great! Probably better than she did in the show room.

Mine's probably pissed at me she's dirty and is having to sleep in the cold.

Very nice!

I purchased my '01 new, off the lot, with 2 miles on the clock. It's now at 185,520 miles and runs great.

I stopped by the local Toyota dealer the other day and happened to see the 2010 4Runner. In my opinion, it looks flat-out horrific. Toyota has managed to fully destroy what the 4Runner once represented. Hence, no desire of replacing mine with anything that's currently on the SUV market.

Still stunned by the gorgeous rig. I have the identical truck, but yours looks so much sharper. Love the Sequoia wheels. So envious. More questions for you: Are you running any kind of a lift? You seem to be higher than stock. Maybe it's just the bigger 17's and the step tubes? Also, the rear bumper step guard. Did you paint yours black or is that just a nice Armor All job and the light angle?
Here's mine after a nice coat of Mother's wax:

Thanks for the compliments guys! Yeah, it's been a good one. Bought it used in 04 with 40K on it and have loved everyday of owning it. That detail was with Zaino Bros. products. The rear "step-bumper" has no armor-all, it's just been treated with some of Griots Garage bumper treatment. It's good because it never runs off in the rain. The sliders are Stubbs, and it's not lifted.

I know what you guys mean, to me the 3rd gens are one of the best 4Runners ever! (Until I get paint on my 85!)

Here's the work car, and yes I'm HP.


And one of the Z just because!
