Looking for a 3Gen 4runner 4x4

My '95 was just totalled by some jackhole who ran a red light. Now I'm out of a car for New Year's weekend, not to mention I miss my truck. Anyway, I need a new truck, does anyone want to sell or know someone who does?

I just bought a 1998 SR5 4wd with 82k one-owner miles in Anthracite for $10,800. Don't know of anyone selling but don't fret too much, they're out there. Good luck!

Look what they did to her

I was slammed into by an H2 going approx 50 mph. She did not flip on me, but I did a full rotation, ending up facing the same direction I started in.

Dude, you're lucky, all you lost was your car. Good luck on your search.

There are plenty out there believe me. If I had to do it all over again I wouldve gotten a '99 4Runner with the e-locker, stock foglights, 16" wheels, and of course the cupholders! Sorry to hear about your truck.

You are so right. In fact, had I been going a little slower, my girlfriend would have been seriously injured. As it happened, I was still able to get her home and have my way with her.

Sorry to hear about your truck, glad you got out of it ok though.

If I got hit by a soccer mom driving one of those things, I would be IRATE. She'd be crying uncontrollably after I got through yelling at her. I have no sympathy for people who drive those huge soapboxes and blow through red lights because they're wandering through their purse looking for their cell phone....

Good luck with your search

Funny....

Funny you mention that. She said she was looking for an address. Is your avatar a picture of Maynard from Tool?

Sure is. One of the greatest vocalists/songwriters of all time. I saw him live when I went to an APC concert, GREAT show....incredible experience. I have yet to see Tool live though

I've seen Tool, but I missed APC. What do you think about the new APC album eMotive?

I found my '99 (sold my '97 a month later) and it has the stock essentials I wanted plus the *bling-bling* hood scoop.

'96-'02 stock, sunroof, roof rack, 4wd, towing pkg, running boards in the Houston area. Pretty much the same thing I had before the accident in a newer year and preferably in black. Oh yeah, and I want it for less than 8k.
