Seriously dude. This truck is exactly how i want the exterior part of mine to look. The white paint job, with black decals, and black bumpers. PURE SEXINESS!!!! lol

But unfortunately ive decided to stick to the original paint that my truck came with. charcoal gray with black accessories. It will still look great. Just not as sexy as that white with black ontrast will make it look like.

im too far from you guys. im in central ca. im surrounded by trails. i love it. all within an hour or two. im also prime central because marlin crawler and trail gear are local to me haha. rock crawlers all day long where im at

finally order some axle shims to bring my rear axle down because it was pitched to far up. odd because most people pitch it up for clearance but since im not running a double cardain drive shaft. i have to pitch it down to make the drivetran vibrations go away

Oh hell yea dude that gray runner looks great. And DAMN YOU ARE SOOOOOO LUCKY TO HAVE SO MUCH GREAT SHOPS AND EVEN MORE, TRAILS ALL OVER!

I was originally aiming for a white 4runner but i never found one that was in good bodily shape. so i settled on my 2nd color choice. Charcoal gray with black is still nice. I cant wait till its all done with.

But you get the point) Man, REALLY wish I could join you guys .... Maybe some day! A Toyota-Caravan-Fishing-Expedition? lol.
