Never noticed the little "nubs" in the garage door opener compartment:

(fast forward to 5:45 to see Doug talk about them. He doesn't miss a beat!)

Yeah that was a cool feature that I coincidentally learned about like a week ago, only through reading the manual.

I did notice that Doug said he doubted there was another 3rd gen out there with them still intact… I know where he can find one, and I’m sure I’m not the only one. Great video and great 3rd gen specimen.

I’m with you, he built it up and then gave it a dog of a score.

dog of a score? Well, considering the 4Runner he tested is practically 20 years old AND it wasn't exactly packed with quirks & features (compared to then and now), it didn't surprise me the "doug score" was low.

Doug Score, LOL.

I'm not following that sale, is it still for sale? What did it end up selling for?

Wow, crazy cool survivor. The "Doug" hype will drive the price higher than it should be, but there can't be many in this shape.
