My new off road premium
I'm back in a 4Runner and I love it. My last runner was 20 years older than this one, and a tiny bit rustier. Traded my Tacoma for this guy.
First on the list is tinting the front windows, then raising the front. I'll probably go with the toytec coilovers, but not totally decided on that, along with an airlift for the rear to help with my race trailer.
The Tacoma was real good to me, but I'm pretty excited about this new 4Runner.
I'll use this thread to document mods and adventures rather than start a new thread.

Thanks guys!
I need to update the sig for sure, but being fresh off the lot I'm all stock for now. Besides standard equipment found on the off road premium, my factory options are:
KDSS
moonroof
Running boards
All weather mats
Door edge guards(look like a great spot for dirt to hide, didn't ask for these)
Roof rack cross bars
I've already got an appointment for tint. I'll have the dealer install remote start before cold weather sets in. I DEFINITELY want to lift it up a little and get some more aggressive tires asap, but after doing all that to the Tacoma, I want to do my due diligence in researching exactly what I want to suit my needs before I make any purchases.
I will haul a 6x12 enclosed V-nose with the race bike, tools, and gear up to a dozen times a year, so I want to be sure I get the right setup to accommodate that.
The Tacoma had 5100's and Firestone ride-rite airbags and towed the race rig like a dream.

We also have a 17' OR Premium with KDSS, no sunroof. I would skip the dealer remote start. My wife had to have it. It's a long install process at the dealer. It has an extremely limited range. The one thing that worked better on the previous Jeep was the remote start. Check on aftermarket options. The official Toyota remote start is not worth the money.

I'll second the aftermarket remote start. Do a search on here for the Remote Start PSA thread. I did the Compustar from GShadow, the install isn't that hard, and it works great.

Nice looking ride! I had a 2000 Toyota Tacoma and rolled it over with less then 1000 miles on it. While I was on the roof sliding down the road the top started to open like a can opener to a tuna can but that truck saved my life. I'm surprised the roof didn't collapse and crush me. I walked away with a few scrapes after freeing myself from the seatbelt and crawling out. You can't go wrong with a Yota

Congrats. I like that you matched your 4Runner to your CBR track bike. I have a red 4Runner and a red CBR track bike, lol. Must be something about matching motorcycles and 4Runners. I went to WVU and did my first track day in 2012 at Summit Point. Enjoy the 4Runner!

Sweet! I go to summit all the time! Trying to hit Aug 13&14. What orgs do you ride with usually?
Here's a better pic of track build. Did the whole thing myself starting with a bare frame.
