I'm a Ford guy. After driving a 68 F100 since 1986, and buying vehicles for the Wife and kids for the last 30 years, I decided to buy me something.
I wanted something to drive offroad. I wanted a Jeep Wrangler, but that wouldn't be practical for us. So it was an SUV.
Older Jeep Cherokees can be modified for what I wanted, but they are difficult to find. New offerings seemed to be plagued with horror stories.
I also looked at the offerings from Ford (I noticed they all start with the letter "E". Edge, Escape, Explorer, Excursion, Expedition)
As I perused listings I noticed an absence of 4runners. Lots of them around, not many for sale.
So the end of Nov I bought a '17 SR5 from a Toyota dealer, already lifted, aftermarket wheels & larger tires.
Drive it to work. Explore desert trails or washes (oops). Just did a 1,100 mile road trip this last weekend and helped my son move.
So far very happy with my decision. That may change when I break something, lol.
