Pics should work now.. and YES that is exactly right. That, and damn Kelley Blue Book dropping the value of it $2,000 in less than 1 month and 1000k miles later.

I'm glad you didn't sell. I really regret selling mine, and should have another 4Runner here within a few weeks (after I sell the POS Jetta)!

A stock 4runner sure beats no 4runner.

What was your mileage with the mods and what is it now? Just wondering, I'm trying to decide on what mods I should do...I'm thinking just a body lift and tires for now.

I am averaging about a full extra day of driving on 1 tank each week than when I was lifted/modded. I travel to Raleigh (my hometown) from school every few weeks and I noticed I am saving more than 1/8 tank (little more than 1/2 a tank to drive 3 hours compared to almost 3/4 tank when I was lifted.

There IS a difference. In my opinion, it IS helping me save money.. Also, I had to get away from modding/offroading for a while. It started to get out of hand. I have no other way to get around so I've gotta take care of this 4runner for a while.
