Welcome to my thread it will be a log of my travels and my build, enjoy and hopefully I can help someone in the process.
My first 4Runner was a 2000 4Runner SR5 with the "Highlander" package (2WD) that my dad gave me while I was in high school and I took over payments once I joined the Marine Corps in 2004. Her name was Bessie and was to me the best thing since sliced bread. There was nothing particularly special about her, just a Pioneer stereo that would beat your face off. Alas I traded her in at 185K mi for my 2011 4Runner Trail Edition with 26mi and named her Jemima because she is big black and beautiful, but I did almost shed a tear for I was leaving my first most wonderful car.
