One more thing. So the old Lexus' required premium fuel. If I was to get one that was out of warranty (130k miles), is it possible to tune the engine to normal fuel? Is using normal fuel regardless ok? It doesn't really make sense to me, since it uses pretty much the same engine as a V8...

I know they're built on 4Runner frames so I was just wondering. Also, I'm assuming the mpg is the same as a V8 Runner, so 15-19. I'm expecting 16 ish, good thing gas here in SC is some of the lowest in the country haha

So I am shopping for my first car and I have my heart set on a 4th gen 4Runner. I've been looking for a long time and my area seems to be in a 4Runner drought (ones with 4WD at least). I then saw the GX470s. Do these make good first cars like 4Runners? Are they as reliable and do parts and...

Yeah the high mileage doesn't bother me too much. The only think I'm kind of concerned about is the mpg. An all time 4WD V8 with a lift and tires = not so good mpg :) ......... Also, those fake TRD decals are really bothering me....... fingers crossed they come off easy

Thanks Bossman. This one popped up about an hour North of me and it looks pretty good. The only thing is mileage is kinda high so we will have to check it out nice and thorough. 2007 Toyota 4Runner Limted V8 4WD

I didn't really expect to hear anything bad hahaha. The hard part of this search is getting a Limited in 4WD. All that do usually have 160K+ on them and that is a little high. And while I won't be off-roading, 4WD is a must (I can't be THAT guy with a lifted truck that has 2wd lol. Also, my dad...

Ok, so I know the differences for the refresh but I'm not totally sure what they mean for me. This will be my first car and I will keep it for a while. I'm not planning on doing any off-roading but I do want to level it and put on some bigger tires. I was previously told that I should stick...

I'm still looking guys haha. They're really aren't that many for sale near me and it's starting to annoy me. When I first decided that I wanted a 4Runner, there was an 09 Limited with 90K for less than 17 thousand. It sold in less than a day lol. It seems as if that was the last good deal for a...

Thanks y'all. Price is 15900 which is a little over my 15K budget but not impossible. We were thinking that the last two buyers might've just not been able to afford the vehicle (It's in Orangeburg which doesn't have a lot of money). Everything sounded fine and it ran nice and pretty but 2...

So there is a pretty nice 06 Limited with 113K miles for sale nearby. I like it but there are two things that stick out as weird to me. First is that it doesn't always switch to 4Lo. When we test drove it, it switched from 2Hi to 4Hi just fine but a beeping in the cabin started when the 4Lo...

I think I'm starting to like the whites a little more (same thing happened with the gold. I originally hated but I kind of fell for after I saw one hahaha). Anyway, does anyone know if you can Plasti Dip the chrome grilles? I'm thinking about Plasti Dipping the wheels and the grill sticks out. I...

I'm heading up to Charlotte this Saturday to look at it, so I'll see how it goes. Good news is that it is listed about a $1000 under budget so I can start the mods right away!

Ok, ok maybe I was wrong. Those pictures are exactly what I wanted to see. I probably splurge on the black hardware before the lift to get some contrast first. Maybe black headlights?

So there is a white 4Runner for a really good deal near me. The only thing is that white is probably my least favorite color. White 4Runners (no offense :) ) seem kind of mom-ish to me. I plan on doing a couple of things to any 4R I get, first will be a leveling/lift kit and the other will be...

Up for sale is my well loved Nexus 5, unlocked for all GSM carriers. Everything works perfectly but there is some cosmetic damage on the sides. There is a small scratch on the screen and there is waterdamage-like discoloration but no actual water damage. Comes with a Black Ringke Slim case...
