I do miss my V8 4rth Gen. I have not jet driven a 5th gen Runner, due to the unfortunate risk conditions on where I live I had to sell my 4rth gen to get something with a lower profile. I ended up with an 04 Grand Cherokee. Having said day I miss my 4rth gen runner very much, I regret not having...

Thanks for the info guys, I thought the 0 apr deal was in general. I'm going to vist a dealer today and see what they have left for 08. I think what I would enjoy the most out of a different 4runner from the one I have currently is the sunroof and a less eye catching color( maybe a white-silver...

Hi guys, hope all of you had great holidays. A few months ago I made a post regarding the lease end of my 06 Runner, and asked you guys about what you guys thought could be negotiated with the dealer on a buy out price on my Runner. Well I did sat down with Toyota and the dealer and turns out...

The local used car market here is more depreciated, because dealers need to spend more to send the cars out of town. I have researched the local market a little bit and 4runners similar to mine are beeing sold localy at about $16 to $18. Which makes me think I could negotiate something with...

Hi guys, I just wanted to see if any of you have done anything like this or could give me some advise. I have an 06 Toyota 4runner V8 that I leased as my daily beater. It has been good to me and I think I would not have any issues if I had to drive it for a few years more. The Lease is ending...

Hi guys, hope al of you are doing good. I was wondering if any one can help me find a part for my runner. I have done some searches and some how can't find a parts diagram for the Runner. The part that I'm looking for is the rear cargo area coat hanger hooks. More than hooks they look like a...

That is interesting. So basically if I install this Eclipse Unit, the radio controls that my Runner currently has, will work with it(volume, track and source). Do you know if the unit has an off road gps function, or a cookie crum trail? I thing this is not a must, but it's nice if I could use...

I think I read in some post here in the forum, the Eclipse is very similar to the OEM Navigation. Is that right?

Hi guys, hope every one is doing well. I wanted to visit with you about getting a navigation unit for my Runner. I currently own a 06 sport edition 4runner. At the moment my runner has only the basic Cd player with mp3 compatibility. I also have a windshield mounted tom-tom 720 gps navigation...

I also discovered this compartment a few days ago. I was wondering if some one look at it for the first time would ever wonder it is a storage area? I also want to use it to store/hide my gun. I live in El Paso Tx and run a couple of businesess on the Mexican side of the border. So I go to...

I Also installed my Piaa's last week. This week it rained for the first time and the results where very impresive. To bad PIAA does not have fitments for my other cars. :(

It does really look very good. I found online that PIAA makes a led for the license plate area also, the only thing is that they are slightly more expensive.

Update on my other vehicles

Thanks for the information. How do you select the ones you have from that web site? Is the install just a simple plug and play? Thanks

I'm considering ordering Piaa Silicone wiper blades. Has any one used them? I know they are expensive but my runner is my roadwarrior and I want to have the best equipment as I used it allot on highways. Any comments would be very helpful.
