This is a bit of a story
I've been interested in 4Runners since about 2004-5ish. I was saving up to buy a used 3rd gen but end up totaling my car at the time. With little for down payment and gas prices on the rise, I decided to purchased a 2005 Honda Civic Si. Had that for a while and moved back to PA to go back to school. In 2011 I felt the Si wasn't going to pass PA's state inspection due to modifications, so I started looking into 4Runners again, specifically 4th gen Sport Editions. This is the time when I created a user account on here and started researching. They weren't really at a price I was comfortable with and I ended with a 2011 Honda Civic Si Sedan. I figured that would be the car I would keep till I paid if off and put towards a 4Runner. Then the FRS/BRZ came out. And I am a sucker for small sports cars and I had to have one. I was planning on paying that off and purchasing an older 4Runner. But, fast forward 3 years and the wife and I are in a house and she now commutes alot of miles. So last week I traded in the BRZ for a 2011 Classic Silver SR5 4WD with the Premium and Convenience packages. I'm pretty excited to finally be in a 4Runner and can't wait to play with it more, especially in the snow.
