    :typing: Just making my suggested new member post. I bought a silver '14 SR5P with 76k miles a couple weeks ago, the truck is pristine inside & out, one owner, garage kept, paint is literally better than new, must have a thick coat of wax/polish, looks professionally done. Totaled my '14 SRT Grand Cherokee by driving into about 10 inches of water after Ian came through my town, and so I've decided to get something even more weather proof (I had previously thought an SUV would be able to withstand a little bit of water). I went from Pontiac G8 GT to the SRT Jeep in 2020 because I wanted a fast vehicle that could handle rain and winter conditions better than a car, apparently the Jeep can't handle 10 inches of water, so now I have a 4Runner.

    :typing: I've always had my eye on 4Runners, but I chose speed over offroad capability. I've had enough speed, I guess:D, now I've gotta build this 4Runner into something respectable. First mods are going to be minor cosmetic upgrades, trying to offset some of the silver with alot of black. Then, a lift and tires, roof rack, you know the drill, I refuse to put an American flag in the rear side window, not trying to do EVERYTHING everyone else does.:D I'm really loving the KC lights, saw them on the Bigfoot monster truck as a child and never knew what they were because they always had the covers on.:notsure:I'll probably get the black fender flares, they do alot for the silver and white 4Runners. Anyway I hope you've enjoyed my life story,:evil: I'm looking forward to getting ideas from all of your rides.:headbang:
