Looks good, I like the red as well. Just got my new 17 Off Road last Saturday and so far I freaking LOVE it. Had a 09 2WD DoubleCab Pre-Runner Tacoma for the last 5 years, it was awesome but time for an upgrade.

My biggest issue moving from the FJ to the 4Runner is the lack of manual transmission. Almost made me not buy it. It is more sluggish with less control to save the brakes, etc. Just my .02, and yes I still love the 4Runner. lol

My FJ needs a new windshield every year. But I have insurance for the glass that is like $1.50 per month so this is not an issue to me.

Thanks again everyone.

I must have been lucky, never replaced the windshield on the FJ

The 4Runner is an odd bird in that it is more cost effective to buy new than used in most cases. I was shocked by the prices of 2 year old Runners almost matching new deals in my area

I looked at a bunch of used ones over the last 6 months, decided to just get what I wanted and buy new.

Nice rig I’m going to look at a TRD Offroad today. I have never had a 4Runner only Jeeps.
