    Hello fellow 4Runners!

    Just picked up my new 2025 TRD ORP!

    A little about me...

    My 20s was spent in the JDM car scene here in OC:

    1. 1998 Mitsubishi GS-T
    2. 1998 Mitsubishi GSX (awd version)
    3. 2001 Honda S2000 AP1 GPW
    4. Mitsubishi Evo 9 GSR Tarmac Black

    My 30's I got out of the car scene and had a Nissan Sentra then my last car before this purchase which was a Kia Niro.

    With that out of the way.....can anyone recommend any retail stores or online stores with fairly priced hard rooftop tents? I got a lot of inspiration from watching this guy on Youtube named Fish13.

    Next 4 months goals:

    1. Hard rooftop tent
    2. Rear bumper replacement with addition of dual swinging racks
    3. 270 degree awning
    4. Dry pop tent/enclosure for cooking, sitting etc with vent and indoor heater friendly
    5. Pressurized water tank on top of roofrack + popup shower + hose etc

    2026 goals:

    Lift + suspension + tires and rims. I am looking to give my 4runner a really aggressive look.

    Anyway....pleassure to finally be part of a community again and look forward to offroading/camping/overlanding for the next few decades.
