I do wish they'd said/shown a bit more about the 3rd Gen... but I'm also biased. They've got a good series going and I was very pleased to see more people make awesome 4Runner videos (we can't expect [MENTION=120071]mtbtim[/MENTION] to make all the videos!)

Well put together. I didn't know about the original Trekker. Glad they didn't stick with that name. "No, no, I drive a tREKker!"
Ha, I remember a kid down the street from me growing up got a pink Geo Tracker for his 16th birthday. His mom was exceedingly French and likely didn't understand or appreciate the extent to which that car got him ostracized from the dating pool (unless she knew EXACTLY what she was doing). Not that anyone should complain at getting any car for their 16th, but still...

Just seen this on Facebook.
Beat me to it. Came here to post that, I had no idea! Really though, Winnebago? Not bashing just in awe at the vintage collab’
Haven’t been around, sorry. PCS’d (.mil move) back home to Guam from Nebraska, after a year in Saudi Arabia. Picked up a ‘77 Honda CB550K and a ‘80 CX500, been dicking around with those things instead, plus the 5th gen is the wife’s ride at the moment. So far, she’s scratched the shit out of the interior with her Lularoe clothes racks, got into 3 minor wrecks, and the rock sliders have started to rust because of the weather here. I’m about to confiscate it from her and banish her into a 9’s model Nissan Pathfinder or XTerra for being such an ******* to the 4R.

Don't worry, apparently this OP did not see this earlier post from even earlier today!
