very glad I did. It's pretty cool. I didn't get to ride in the back but it would be pretty sweet. It looks funny now, but i really like it. You look back and there is nothing there, sweet. Very easy to do. 2 person job though.

Now you should get a soft top. It looks good. Bet she feels faster too. I contemplated getting a 1st gen runner, but I'd be too indecisive when it would come to top/no top.

 

links just take me to myspace.com. you should host your pics at photobucket for those of us who don't have a myspace

 

looks darn good. i wish i could do that. when there's hot girls behind me in their little civics i like to roll down the back window to see them point and say something about it. i'm pathetic!

 

looks good ill be nice and post them up for you since all it takes is 5 secs

 

Very Nice!!!

 

i think it looks great. i want a first gen specifically for that feature...

 

Thats the look that stole my heart wish my second gen had the removible top. Still gonna get one of them though

 

That is a big reason why I got a first gen.. If you can get it out on the beach you'll love it . Here's a really old pic of mine:


Yours looks very nice man!

 

Looks clean


2man job, pshhh. just get under there with all the bolts off and put it on your back, walk off the tailgate, i did it the entire time i had my 4runner.

 

I never took the top off-I'm concerned about dust coming in. It is very bad when I forget to roll the rear window up,just can't imagine how it would be without the top.There is also a good stereo and bunch of stuff in my car-wouldn't want to get it stolen.

 

ahmgram, nice shot of what I am guessing is somewhere near Hateras?

I was there way back when I learned what "Jeep Only" meant as I buried the 2WD mighty max I had.

Mine went topless a few weeks ago. There is actually suprisingly little wind inside the cab with the windows up and sunroof closed. I was afraid I may get some exhaust like I did when rolling down the back window, but nothing that I have noticed. Even though it is not open overhead it is a ton of fun and people seem to notice it alot more.

I also just finished my soft top(ok a few tweaks left). It is detailed on this thread

That's a sweet little soft top.

 

Yeah, that pic was taken at Oregon Inlet. I have some from Hatteras too but that is with the top on because it was raining that day

I like that top though. I would like to get a Can-Back but that is a nice alternative. You're right about the wind noise and stuff.. It's not bad with the windows up. Also, when I have the top off I just clean out my truck and take my faceplate with me when I park. Still, I don't do it much because I won't drive it downtown without it.. They'll steal anything down there.

 

thats a great looking truck, my favorite toyota color too.

i took mine off a bit early this year, mostly because I was having rr window issues that i didnt want to deal with. a few storms have rolled through, got a little wet back there, but things dry very quickly in nevada.

btw, a quick solution to wet weather and early top removal - a simple 10x12 tarp, drape it over the truck cab, close the doors over the edges, drape it back over the tailgate and tie a loop off on the bumper. goes on fast and keeps most of the wet out.

here's my solution to gear theft with the top off

Aww, man, have to say I was fooled by the OBX sticker. You got me...

 

What do you mean? You drove past Oregon Inlet to get to Hatteras (it's the section just south of Nags Head before you cross the bridge.. Yes, the name is confusing).

 

OH , man was I getting confused.

I have to admit my trip to Hateras was about 11years ago. I was in a group of six marines on weekend liberty. The drive out there was not the part of that trip that I remember

 

LOL.. Right on
