I am afraid this one is in denial and too far gone to save. Please 4runner gods, have mercy on this one's soul as he has sinned....

:nono::rofl::rofl::rofl::noidea:The denial is so GREAT so sad

This is why we cant have nice things. Maybe us 2nd gen owners should merge into the 3rd gens section.
Leave this section to the convertible girls.

[mistersnowman97]

Ah c'mon now.

 

[541joseph]

Why can't we all have our own section? Everyone but us gets there own.

Dear merciful wheeling gods, please forgive these who have sinned by creating civil conflict among their own brothers. May they find peace in their ongoing fight against the enemy. Brother FoG, brother KidV and anyone involved, may I ask that you resolve your conflicts and find peace on the trail.

3. Looks like a 3rd gen

That's cute.

 

[Pisa 8687]

That's cute.

This is the point of the thread to start with. Their grasping at anything to find a reason to exist :cry2::argue:

 

[mikebontoft]

I just enjoy messing with KidV as he does me.

not dirty at all. (someone was bound to say it)

Careful now. Without second gens, all you third gen owners would probably be driving Pathfinders.

haha coincidence I put the 3rd gen one on #3

Its too cold and wet outside. And my T4r doesnt fit in the garage, so I gotta make due.

Atleast we still have a real tailgate though. Unlike the third gens.
