Joined the Club!
Hey guys,
Some of you may know me from the General section and the 3rd gen section, I dont get over here to the 4th gen section much...
Well, after a few years of talking about it and getting our finances to the place where it was an option... I finally went and bought my wife a 4th gen 4runner, guess you could call it a late bday present for her as she turned 30, 4 days ago.
only one lame pic from inside Chick-fil-a for now, but I cant wait to take pics with it next to my 3rd gen!
Lift and some light armor to come.
The wife definitely wants to hit a few trails.

Hey! that was Steeze that did Neon, LOL
I have a clean "Banner Red" for my skids and all my armor!
Yeah, Any armor will prob be the wifes choice of color... as long as its not too feminite!
Im thinking a lift with some buds and maybe some Rock sliders. If I do Rock sliders on this one they will be much nicer than the trailgear ones I put on my rig. Ill shell out some $$ to make it look nice.
Its so funny, Lysa was telling me she is driving it so much more carefully than her Mitsu Outlander. Im like yeah, theres a huge difference in the quality. Theres really no comparison.

Duhockey--
Welcome to the "I own a 3rd gen AND a 4th gen 4Runner" Club! And I agree that the 4th gen ride is definitely better than the 3rd gen.
