Keep the Runner, swap in 4x4, armor it up, and your kid is safer than in any Pilot.

Huh, just read through this list. While I'm no expert, and the author has considerably more experience, I'm shocked he left off Hilux/Runners for price/options/durability. Maybe he should drop by this forum.

I'll chime in here with a true work story: So it turns out my boss and our chief accountant (CFO) at the non-profit I work at both drive 3rd Gen Runners, though they've kept their trucks stock. We got to talking one day and my boss said his Runner has 215,000k on it. He's the original owner...

This site is great at spreading the mod bug. And if you've already been lurking ... I hope you don't have kids who are expecting a college fund, cuz all the money will go to your rig. Good luck with the build.

Looks like he posted 147k

Spectre, I'm sorry to hear this, and glad your wife is okay. I was looking forward to your unique mods and how they applied to our rigs. While I love my 98, I'm jealous of a 5-speed, rear locker set up. From what I've heard, these rigs cost more in regions like Colorado cuz they're in demand...

This is the funniest typo I've made thus far on the forums. Good catch.

I agree here with RA. I think he's actually referring to the thread I started on the same topic. The clearcoat is peeling on the roof and hood of my rig, which sucks cuz my truck is almost in perfect condition except for the paint. Basically, after weighing my options I decided it's stupid to...

#1) Welcome to the forum. You'll find tons of useful info here. #2) Hang around this forum and you'll get the mod bug. It's insidious. Kids or not, I'm betting you'll soon have a 3-4' lift, 33s or 35s, and armor:)

This is one of those threads I've always wanted to start, but been too afraid to cuz I'd be torched and scolded for not using the "search function", so I'm glad somebody else did. I too have my Ultra-Gauge programmed at 18 gallons, so I'm going to change it to 17. Thanks.

The projectors looks great! You're the first person I've seen who did the swap for a price I can stomach. One more project to add to the list...

I'm with you man. That's why I'm in the process of designing my own front bumper as well. Speaking of which, your front armor is awesome! Now I definitely need to spend time lurking on your build. Honestly, I've never worked with metal besides basic cutting/grinding/bending, but I have worked...

Messy or not, if it works, it works. And your truck always looks great. This process makes me doubly glad I live in a dry, stable climate year round and don't have to worry about snow. BTW, the Tacoma looks great as well man!

Whitson, I'm with everybody else on here. Your products look fantastic, solid, and well thought out. I just have no need for an overhead rack since it's always me and my GF, or just me, traveling. Plus I'm finally starting to design my own plate bumper, so I'd probably just make an amateur...

SCRunner, I understand the desire to get a SC. I love my truck, and the only improvements I would still make involve paint, custom armor, or more power. To me this is a perfect vehicle except for the power loss, especially with my 33s. Not that my truck was a beast before, but hills are...
