    Huge congrats. Many of us on the forums have done the same. I could not have been happier when I made the upgrade.

    Welcome! Lucky enough where my family has both a taco and 4Runner. I enjoy driving the 4Runner more. Don’t tell the guys on Tacoma World. :anonymous:

    Welcome from Wisconsin!

    I had a 2nd gen and 4th gen 4runner, second gen Tacoma and went back to a 5th gen runner. The Tacoma was fun, but the 4runner is just the right vehicle for me.

    Congratulations!

    Nice Bumper!

    Welcome @87Tanto_T4r, I’m down in Austin and spend most the time with the tacoma world guys here. If you drive a Toyota you’re pretty much welcome to join! I know there are active Tacoma guys that wheel up there but the runner bro’s don’t seem to use forums much.

    Thank you! Yes Tacoma was amazing. Best truck I'll ever own. But 4runner is more fitting for me

    There’s already a well established “other” 4runner forum that kinda sucks up a majority of the T4R forum traffic. They’ve got history on their side. It’s unfortunate because that forum software is obnoxious. Riddled with ads and it’s almost unusable on a mobile device imo.

    Hoping over time more and more of them come over here.
