and finally, a few weeks ago.....

Since July - about 6 months

I have gone from this pic, which has a few mods in it


To this pic which has about $3000 worth of mods in it (and I haven't put on my OMEs yet or added that cost)


A buddy at work has been telling his wife all the stuff I have been doing to my 4Runner so she could come up with something "nasty" to say the next time she saw me, just for playful aggravation. We all went to lunch yesterday and she said "What have you done to your 4Runner? It looks like a redneck truck!" I smiled and said "thank you!" She didn't know what to say!

It's interesting, women all just make nasty comments and shake their heads, but the men all have something nice to say or just smile and nod. I'm thinking about doin' a snorkel just for that "gasp" factor. I think the funniest thing I've heard said about the snorkels is that someone said to tell people when they ask that it is a "periscope"! Now that is too funny!

You have a nice looking REDNECK truck! I have bumper, winch and snorkel envy! But I got the tires!

women do think it's crazy, and pointless there are a few chicks that really like my truck... and yes, I DO have tire envy!! :shaking fist in air at you: just wait until after Christmas! I also have color envy, I wanted a black one real bad, but red was my 2nd color, and had all the options I wanted (except rear locker, but I didn't think I would get this hardcore into wheeling then!)

Oh, and I do have light envy too (I just really really love your rig! ), but those might be my Christmas gift to me this year!
