Shadow247s 2nd Build (01 Millenium Silver/ThunderCloud Limited 4x4)
I'm really excited for this one. My 1st 4Runner was a crusty 99 with 341k on the clock. I learned a lot, and waited for this one for 11 years! It belonged to my wife's best friends mom since new. She parked it in the Garage, her dad is a very talented software engineer who just took it to Toyota for all the service up until the last 3 years when it has barely been driven. I kept bugging him for the past 10 years that I would buy it no questions asked when he was ready to sell.
The day finally came. I was weeks away from pulling the trigger on a GX470 for way more than I really wanted or needed to spend. My wife got the text from her friend, and it was mine in less than a week! I was actually really anxious because he wouldn't let me take it until they delivered his new car. Understandable. But now it's mine.
