I would agree except the Audi dealer down the street was hit the same way, the same night. Now, if there was one employee that had worked in both shops.......hmmm.:gun6:

Other than someone stealing it when they drive it up to give me the keys after purchase, this might be the shortest ownership duration on record due to theft. Delivery Thurs. night, stolen Sun. nite. It was one sweet 3day, 40 miles ownership. I miss my baby.:AK47:

Update!!!! Hold onto your seats!!!! When I posted before, I advised that I had just purchased (Nov. 4)a used 4Runner that was in beautiful condition except for the failure to engage 4Lo. I had an appointment for the diagnostics for Monday, Nov. 8th. On Sunday, my wife followed me to the...

Not wanting to make a bad move, I wanted to check with you guys/gals before I pull the trigger on my planned mods. I have a stock 06 T4R, 42d, v6, Sport Edition with the XREAS system. I would like to have a professional shop install a modest lift/level to: 1. Give me a better height...

Geezer K.I.S.S. lift/level kit question. I'm a grouchy old bas**** who was driving Bronco's before most of you whipersnappers were born, so when I ask these questions, refrain from providing long winded technical crap, or any attempt to educate my sorry asz. I have a 2006, Sport Edition, a/t...
