Hi Folks, Just Wanted to Introduce Myself

Great forum! Lots of beta and great vehicles.

I'm a long time Toyota aficionado and owner, currently drive a 1993 4 x 4, extra cab, equipped for off road and sleeping in the bed with shell and carpeted platform.

Been a climber for over thirty years, have climbed all of Colorado's 14ers, many of the technical 13,000 ft peaks and others as well.

I export fire trucks around the world and have contacts with many dealer sales managers. In essence, I'm an over educated gear head.

Just ordered, may receive by the end of year as the 4 runner is at the port a Titanium Silver Sport V8 which looks like it's loaded to the gills. The lack of a JBL system is the only aspect that I'm missing.

Please feel free to take a look at what's in the vehicle and if you have any comments and suggestions, please post 'em.

The factory installed codes are: FE, DJ, EC, CM, GY, NE, NJ, RF, RL, SP, SR.

The port installed codes are: WL, V5, CF

We will be adding through the dealer's contacts, a clear coat protective strip for the front in lieu of a wind shield and a Valor Exhaust Tip. Also some additional window tinting.

I got it priced out at Invoice less 1250.00 and net $32,600 plus sales tax and four hundred delivery.

How'd I do?

Once again, very fine forum!

Welcome and Congratulations Climb 14er!

You bought a great vehicle.
I just got my new SE V8 T4R two days ago and I absolutely love it. Keep coming back to this forum for all the info you'd ever want to know about the 4Runner.

Just returned from Stevinson Toyota East where I was treated very well.

The Titanium Silver V8 arrived a few days ago and the folks at the dealer are preparing the 4Runner this evening with added Valor exhaust and tomorrow morning, the detail shop will apply the tinted windows and clear front hood protection strip.

Everything they did, was done at invoice, with an additional $1250 rebate, and they even offered me the (extra) alarms and additional warranty at employee discount.

I passed on the latter as if this Toyota is like all my other ones, it'll run great well past any extended warrantys.

I was thinking about the V6 for the past few weeks but after reading a lot of the threads on the forum, I wanted the premium engine and will sacrifice a couple mpg to do so.

Will post some pics in the near term and once again, I appreciate all the insight and beta on this A-1 forum.
