I traded in my 4Runner but here's what they look like on a Tundra (just for reference) :hello: BTW - Dustin @ FN is THE MAN. Best customer service I've ever experienced.

I'm with you - I don't know that I've ever noticed the cost of fuel between one vehicle and another. I get from 16.5 around town and 19.5mpg on my commute (mostly 60mph highway) in my V8 'runner, slightly less when I've got a motorcycle on the hitch carrier. Which seems about the same as the...

No, it's a sweet V8 they put in these things. Smooth as butter, wonderfully torquey and sounds awesome.

That's ridiculous. You could drop the whole engine in 4. Maybe they're using pliers or something.

The fix for the 4Runner and any car is to dial in additional tow-in.

Unfortunately I'm a total speed nut. Everything I have goes fast, or ends up going fast. I actually bought this truck to slow down a bit and as a tow vehicle for my race bikes. That lasted for a couple weeks, haha. I'm trying to fight it, but it'll probably end up happening. I'll keep you...

I've got this 75 dry shot kit sitting around leftover from a 5.0 Mustang. Might be fun... a little Nitrous never hurt anybody. :)

Price drop to $275. Girlfriend is moving in and garage space is at a premium!

Move your seat back up to a nearly upright angle - like a dining room chair. Then sit upright in the seat, no slouching, and lightly press your shoulder blades against the back of the seat. WIth your arms extended straight out head of you, palms down, place your hands over the top of the wheel...

You're welcome dude, thank YOU! Yay. Step one to making my 2wd 'runner look less like a damn station wagon. Before: After:
