Hi guys! I just got back from my final deployment and paid off my 4Runner! Woooo! What a great feeling and relief to get my baby paid off before I retire. :guitar3: While I was overseas, the hubs put a nice 3" body/leveling lift on it for my B-day, (cause he knows what his woman likes) and...

And I bought it used with 46k on it already! Living in the DC area, you can't find a used vehicle that doesn't have high mileage on it, since everyone has a 1-2+hr one-way commute. Got a heck of a great deal on it though.

05 Mazda3, 2.3 hatchback. That was a fun car, but it got too small. 99 Ford Expedition. 12.4 mpg... numerous mechanical problems...had to go. 95 Jeep Cherokee. Loved driving it, Mx problems broke my bank account. 79 Ford F-150. Ex sold it without permission while I was at basic training...

I have to fly on business quite a bit so if I gotta do this..whatever. The only thing I hate is the beeyotchs that work around our DC airports are those loudmouth and crass kind of women that bring attention to everyone & everything. They're not discreet about anything. At the smaller...

Have you looked at the latest Highlander? The new ones are no longer built on that stupid, Camry chassis. However, with 3 kids and a dog... Philsey has a good point.. might not be big enough. Problem is, (sorry if this offends, but its true.) you go with an American made product.. expect...

I have a 2008, SR5 V6, 4WD that just hit 72,000. I live around DC and have a 1 hour commute (one way!) I hate to say it, but my precious is going to hit 100k before I retire and move back to Texas. My 4Runner is the LAST vehicle I am going to ever own, so I'll replace the engine before I buy...

ha.. same here. Have an 08, V6 with 72k, and it gets 20-23 in city. (I drive it very conservatively though.. no hotdogging unless I got icecream to get home. :driving:)

I got the same thing this morning, except it is from user: nic0le Definitely a spammer.

I couldn't believe how well mine performed in last year's Maryland blizzards. It's fun as hell to snow bog in too. I hope we get lots of snow this year again just for that reason. :D

Thank god you were quick enough to swerve out of the way in time.

Oh man, those pics bring tears to my eyes! :cry: Looked like a sweet ride. I hope you/passengers weren't hurt either! You going to get another 4Runner?

I agree. A lift is great for being able to see over traffic and make slow, old ladies get out of the way. :biggrin2:

:iagree:

I just put a Rage Powersports basket on mine. Looks just like SilverBullet's. Its perfect size for throwing all my camping stuff up there. Stupid thing makes a lot of friggin noise though. Even with the deflector.
