I would have loved to have had that at 16.

Exactly! Great 4x4 to learn on and missing lots of the "features" that make things harder to fix. Let the kid be a kid and support him. Folks who think 4Runners are the only way to go have to open their minds. There are lots of good trucks around and limiting to a 4Runner is foolish especially for a young kid.
I'd love to have the truck myself!
