    Opened the thread thinking you got a new baby like me :facepalm:

    Congratulations on your new 4Runner baby :D:D
    Looking good. I bet you love all the fancy features 2023s get. Wish I had some of those features like blind spot, rear cross traffic alert, multi terrain monitoring system, heated steering, etc.

    Welcome to the forum :cheers:
