Just want to say thanks!

To all you dedicated 4runner owners here!

Thanks to you guys, I'm becoming quite the expert, and blowing money like crazy on mods!

I recently picked up Spidertrax from a guy near me, and we had a conversation about our runners, in which he wasn't the only one giving advice! I've learned a lot more about my truck by being here, and I appreciate you all!

I think most people would agree with you on that one. We all learn tons of new things from here.

And yes, this site does cause you to become a bit compulsive when it comes to buying things for your 4runner.

Yes, I agree. Thank you all. I also wanted to thank the person who mentioned the flashlight forum for helping me spend $500+ on flashlights and upgrades...

I hope most of that money was in the "mods" category. I spent $40 on an LED flashlight to keep in the truck, but that's not $500.

I got a little mini LED flashlight by Husky in my truck. Its SUPER bright for being so little, and it sure comes in handy!

 

[josh220]

Mines only a few inches long, but it's insanely bright. It has like 9 LED bulbs inside of it.

Yes, I'm still learning things about my '07 SE and Toyota in general. Also, try edcforums.com and learn about lights and fun stuff.

It's not the number of LEDs. Most of the brightest flashlight only have one. It's the type of LED and reflector design that most directly influence lumens.

Great forum:

"Inactive" site but still great information:

(Luckily I only have about $400 "invested" in 10 - 12 flashlights at this point)

Yeah I know that, but it's a very bright flashlight. That was my point, not how bright different types of bulbs and reflectors are.

You've caught the contagious mod bug! There's no escape from it! Better take a loan out for the Donahoe and Armor bumper! I wish Road armor would make one. I like their bumper shape.

I carry 3-d cells maglights w/terralux led upgrade in the runner. Most of the 500+ is for new lights...at least wife hasn't said"why do you need another one for?" She doesn't even say that about car parts, knives, guns, etc...yet!

...lease wife hasn't said"why do you...

Oh man your wife is on a LEASE?!! Man I need to get a wife on a lease. What a deal!!

 

[toyata]

Yes, lease for 3yrs, get a new model. Problem is, alway paying

 

[josh220]

Haha that's messed up. :lmao:
