If you won the lottery...

Get in it and drive it to Southern California and by a house on Catalina Island.

Then park it in a storage unit in Newport Beach while I use Catalina as my base camp and buy a world cruise on Holland America.
I would spend 1/2 the year at sea on the cruise ship catered to like a sultan and the other 1/2 on Catalina and my new 43' Hans Christain double ender Ketch sailboat sailing between Catalina and Vancouver BC stopping along the way in Napa Valley and San Fran etc.

So I wouldn't change a thing on the 4Runner since I would only be driving it about 10 days a year.
 
I'd go buy (2) Bugatti Veyron Super Sports, and while driving one, I would have the other in tow behind me and I would crash them into (4) metric tons of cocaine. That's how you waste all your lottery winnings in 10 seconds.

I would make an attempt to reclaim my money by announcing this momentous event publicly. Who the hell wouldn't wanna watch that! Just in media publicity, you'd probably get your two cars back, completely restored, and about 8 metric tons of cocaine, and a fan-base for the next attempt :crutch:

Granted, you would be in the hole a bit on explaining why/how you managed to get 4 tons of cocaine, putting it on a road, and smashing into it. Court costs and bail will be costly.

Although, I would pay to watch you explain your idea to your financial adviser. Haha!

hahahaha televised and whatnot - "The whole world is silent while we wait for Rob's courageous attempt to crash two Bugatti's into 4 tons of cocaine.... can he do it? Will the cocaine go through the intake and give the car an extra boost? What if he reaches warp speed? All we can do is wait and see. Many wanted him to donate to churches and charity, but Rob had other plans."



lol this idea came from a conservation I had with a couple friends a while back about how to waste the most money possible in the shortest period of time.

Haha! You have awesome commentator skills. I could just imagine two guys in a booth, patiently watching two Bugatti's race down a strip, going 130, NOW 140, "Oh my god Jim, it appears he is going to go through that coke faster than Denzel Washington in Flight!"

I think I laughed a little too hard at this. My girlfriends 5 year old sister would inform you that this isn't possible, but what does that whore know.

shoot give me enough money and i will build one better than his :D ...sorry erwin :lol:
 
Well I definitely wouldn't quit my job, which I actually like.

Assuming it was a 4 million win, I would put the remaining 2 after taxes into somewhere safe like a spread of banks at 200k a piece.

I'd keep working but take better vacations, ohh and I would probably buy a Nissan GT-R. But that is it!
 
Diamond axles sound like a start.
Arb lockers.
4 link rear

This thread got a helluva lot funnier then I thought it would :lol:
 
So since you mentioned custom fender flares and I haven't seen these posted in the forum yet. Have you guys seen the BX built fender flares yet (link below). I threw financial responsibility to the wind and just bought a set yesterday. They are expensive, but I've been waiting on someone to offer something just like these for awhile now. I'll make a new post with photos of them installed once I get them and install them.


96-02 3rd Gen 4Runner Fender Flares | SRQ Fabrications
 
If I won the lottery?

LT Setup, fiberglass fenders, cantilever rear all hiemed, Stainless Steel vinyl wrap on the exterior, built 8.8" ford rear with discs, built GM LQ4 6.0, built 4L80E with NP261 transfer case, nice precision turbo setup on the 6.0, transbrake in the 4L80.

Something to camp with, run over crazy terrain with at high speeds, do crazy 4x4 transbrake launches, run 10s in the quarter and also be able to idle around town on and get groceries.


Yes.. I've daydreamed about this
 
Complete frame-off restoration, with new parts, if needed. New engine, new transmission, and new suspension components. Here are the upgrades I would do to it:

- OME springs and Bilsteins 5100 all the way around
- Armor bumper and rock sliders, maybe a rear armor bumper, I'm not sure. I haven't seen a rear bumper I liked yet, but hey, money won't be any object, right?
- Upgraded wheels from factory, and defnitely the best A/T tires money can buy.
- Ridding the body of any dents and dings. Respray with white. I like my silver, but white is the best looking color on the 3rd gen, IMO.

Basically it'll be a brand new truck when it's done. I love this vehicle so much that, even if money is no object, and I can afford another truck, I still want to keep this. I'll probably get a fully-spec'd Tesla Model 3 as a second vehicle. The rest of the money will be for setting up a comfortable retirement, and I'll donate to some charities to do some good with that money.
