Definitely not new to Toyotas... this is probably north of #40, or more... who knows. Current stable is... 2017 Prius V4 (dont laugh - 40mpg is about the worst we get, been north of 85mpg) 1988 FJ62 (currently under the knife in the garage for roof rot repair) 2001 Lexus LX470/100 series And the 1997 T4R. 2nd 4Runner I've had, had a first gen AT 4cy about 15 years ago.... Some other notable/odd/"rare" Toyotas I've had... 1970 FJ40 frame off rustomod with a Megasquirt m/TBI 350 2004 Lexus IS300 sporr design manual/lsd 1988 Corolla Alltrac wagon (AE95) 1993 3x locked FZJ80 About 11 first gen MR2s and many engine variations (4age, 4agze, 7age, 5sfe) Picked up a 97, manual, 3.4, 4x4 with 315k miles a couple weeks ago. $2k, came with most parts to do a timing belt. Unfortunately it needed tires and a SERIOUS interior cleaning. Completed most of the interior cleaning and the timing belt service (with pulleys, pump, tensioner, belts, radiator hoses), and got new tires on it. Simple plans are... air lift bags in the rear (put them in the LX and really like them, even with the factory hydro suspension), 4ch amp with new components front and rear, LED headlights, then any other maintenance items that pop up. Been reading about Tundra/LC suspension, so thinking/researching that. Mostly it will be a field truck for my wife and just a good enjoyable manual trans vehicle. Will have to post photos after I resize image sizes, I guess....

Safety third!

Should be noted both the guy who picked it up and myself just by chance did this while wearing our "safety sandals" as my wife called it out
