Im new to Toyota and T4R and lovin it
Hi all,

I just bought a 2004 4Runner Sport 4x4 last Friday due to the family growing and I am in love with this rig!!

I have been a VW freak since I was 16 but have had 4x4's sprinkled in the mix of my last 19 vehicles over the last 13yrs but never a Toyota. I now realize what I have been missing and I'm in love with this Yota...

I'm really looking forward to learning alot on this site as well as sharing information myself.

Cheers,
Brendan
aka Homebrew

It's a good feeling isnt it!? Had the same "WOW" moment about...6 months ago when I got mine. Came from a similar, car/import oriented background aswell.

When it's "ready" for some offroading let the WA people know....good bunch around these parts!

This was our trip out to the Gold Bar/Skykomish area about a month ago.

I am right there with you!! Just picked mine up 2 weeks ago.

I love my new to me 4Runner... Super comfy to drive.. Mine had 58k on it also.

Great to hear, welcome to the forum! I felt the same way when I got mine last march, just don't catch the mod bug like a lot of members have (self included) it gets expensive.

Congrats on the new Runner! Ive been addicted since 2004-ish, when i saw one on the Jersey Turnpike while driving down to VA Beach form Boston.

Since then ive bought a 2003 SE V8, drove it a while and gave it to my wife. Bought a new Sequoia, but missed the Runner. So i traded the Sequoia in (held its value pretty good! Didnt take much of a hit, seriously!) and found a 2008 SE V8 in good ol' Cape Cod.

Congrats on the 4Runner, I had wanted a 3rd gen forever and once the 4th gens came out, I just had to have one. I like those seat covers, anyone know what kind they are?

hehe not seat covers, I'm not a fan of cloth with my dog shedding and my 2yr old spilling juice so i had to have leather put in... at first i was worried about the two tone but felt like taking the risk and in person they look really good!
