    Yeah I’m sure it will. It’ll be a nice rig. We will have to get used to not having a few creature comforts like leather and cooled seats but that’s ok.

    set build date may 11! Hopefully I'll see it by july sometime. Finally the wife will have something capable and dependable. The Durango R/T was fine but its so low to the ground and tire options aren't great. I will miss the Hemi in that thing though.

    Yeah it's all good. I'm seeing that these things are borderline like wranglers in that they have a shit ton of accessories. Not too much to be done with it though besides a front 1 inch and some wheels and tires. Oh and OEM Audio plus sub install and probably some cross bars on the roof and black the rails out. Remote start. It's a decent list I guess. Should be a good dependable ride.

    kind of funny but I should probably keep an eye on the 4runner too. I just order a new Power Wagon for me today. LOL. Loaded to the nuts. Mama can't win. Actually she would have but the limited front ends are ugly af. I'll just have to make it nice on my own.

    Hello, I had a build date of 5/18 and mine hit the port on 6/8. I haven’t got a update again since 6/7 when they said it was hitting port next day. Have you got any updates on your delivery or if it’s at the port now? I was told I would have a June delivery.

    I was looking at the reviews for the Michelin Defender tires, they get great ratings for treadwear and they seem to be a solid all season tire. Seen them on a few 4 runners. They are pricey , but would they be a better alternative to the Bridgestone dueler HT's that get BAD rating?

    Yeah, those Michelins are supposed to be solid tires. I think there are a few models in the Defender line, none of which are really an aggressive all-terrain, but if aggressive looks are not your main focus, yes those would be a solid choice. I think the Defender LTX has always been a very highly regarded tire.

    the 14th to 19th of July it's expected to be delivered. it's going to a dealer in the middle of MN so it might take a bit longer. In the mean time I'm just ordering shit for it. lol.

    The black and gold was a classic look. I'll see if I can find a pic of my 91 integra. I did something similar except I kept silver wheels with gold badging.

    Just got the 4runner yesterday. I think my wife needs to get used to the simplicity of it. haha. She was a bit spoiled with cool seats auto wipers lights etc last time. I love the simple nature of it personally. I did have to order her the OEM audio upgrade today though. She's a music snob and I knew she'd hate the stereo. It's all good. Gotta make her happy.
