Nice, can't wait to see it!

Yeah, I'm hoping to find someone with a wrecked front end 4Runner and a nice bumper on the back they're getting rid of, due to buying a down payment on a Tundra or something with the insurance money, haha... Just never seem to see them on there.

BUT, I saw this CBI front bumper, already assembled, for a SFA 4Runner... (I think the bumper mounts are different on the SFA and IFS rigs, right? Plus, seems a lil steep at 500+$ ... But I REALLY like them.... NO clue if they're strong enough though. )

Also saw this add, lol.... >>>>>

And this..... (some of these guys are sniffing glue with the prices they ask, maybe? Not sure on this one... maybe it's worth 1000$ new?)>>>

This thing is sweet. Your truck is one of my favorites. It's so mild but so capable.

Nice, .... I love my TomTom! lol..... 40$ at 70% off at BigLots .... Never led me the wrong way yet, lol... Last time I used it was to get to Stanton PYPart, near Anaheim, CA.

Are you heading out of town for Thanksgiving?
