    Welp, had a 2000 4runner and was before I even owned a digital camera so no pics. Was silver and all I did to it was a mild lift. Sold it because I ended up getting a company truck didn't need 2!

    2019orp- purchased June 1, 2019- Mods from then till now. - sprint booster, weather tech bug shield, trd exhaust, trd intake, Falcon wild peaks stock size, Toytec boss fronts and eibach rear coils, Rigid SR-Q Series reverse lights, Meso puddle lights and that's about it. Oh, had Morimoto XB headlights for 3 days but they are not safe at night with no light to the sides.

    Few things, Got tired of the white and really didn't like it much after awhile.
    I always put in aftermarket stereo's in and learned there are no good options. They have Alpine Halo that looks like crap, any double din will work but looks naked without knobs. No one anywhere makes a decent aftermarket dash kit! T9 unit looks great but is a cheap hunk of junk.


    This led me to November 23, 2019. Dealer wanted it, even though I took everything off except the toytecs (junk by the way) gave me a good buck and got a 20 pro for msrp. 1st vehicle I've ever paid sticker for but many are getting over sticker!

    And dealers suck. I know they make money off of trades but they are asking 500 more than I paid for it in June! They will probably get 36 for it and its sad, can get a new 20 for close to that

    ^^^^THIS is exactly why I bought new! I was looking at used '14-18 4runners, and having a hard time finding an off-road for under $35K. I figured it was worth a little more money to have a new vehicle with no questions about the previous history. This is my first new vehicle and I intend to keep it until the government forces me to trade it in for a self driving Prius and a lobotomy.

    You'll definitely get your money's worth out of the '20. Good color!;)

    Yes sir, I'll do a write up when I install on the 20. In short you tap the hitch for power and run relays/ wire to the dash. They work when shifting into reverse or at will..hint hint tailgate repellent

    I like the green but no way am I ever ever paying more than sticker. Some find MSRP, others pay 5 even 10k more. That's just stupid...unless you have money to burn;)

    I like it but its very selective across the forums, many like the trd, many hate it. many either like quiet or love the Borla, Gibson etc. That said I can't endorse it to anyone. If they don't like it wouldn't wanna be responsible. If anyone is in Chicago area be happy to go for a ride to hear it and decide

    Off roading? All the way up till 2002 freely. South Elgin was the last local place I knew of, police had a sign saying no 4x4s.. well after a year of no one seeing the sign Elgin bought a Jeep. They drove out and said last chance, leave and don't comeback so we all left!
    Tried a park in 2005 but was a joke. Needed 40" tires and 6" lift to make it through the ruts. So, in short, no.... proclaimed mall craweler

    I've ran fox, Bilstien and toytec. For years I've tested suspensions by driving the exact same crappy highway at the same speed then a lousy railroad crossing at the same speed to see how they handle. They flunked and toytec will never be on my shopping list again. They are ok but no where near awesome. Also they were not the cheapest option
