Talking Hi from southern WI
Hi All!

I've been lurking here for about a week while researching newer 4Rs and finally found the right one for me. I'm picking up a 2013 4R Limited next week and really looking forward to it.

Quick Specs:
  • 2013 4Runner Limited
  • Magnetic gray exterior
  • Black interior
  • Only options are the slide out cargo tray and carpet mats (pretty funny that carpet mats are now an option to some manufacturers...)

I'm in southern WI with a nice snowfall predicted this weekend. From what I've read so far, the stock OEM tires are craptastic (no big surprise) in wet and snow, so I'm hoping it's "ok" until upgrades are done.

Off to more reading on here...

Welcome! Post pics of the ride when you get a chance. It's a V6 I'd imagine right?

Pics will be shared for sure. Yup, it's the standard 4.0L V6. Can't wait!

Thanks for the welcomes, everyone.
