Looking for a 4Runner club in Hawaii

No clubs

Howzit,
There is no organized club for 4Runners in Hawaii. There was a push to get a 3rd gen club going but due to a lack of turnout it died.

I think the Tacoma Territory guys have a club but from their website updates it seems kinda dead too.

What kind of 4runner you got?

I have a 99 but am looking for a new vehicle. The problem is what to get. Too many choices.

Wazzup MaukaRunner!

Yeah I see so many 4th Gen Runners, but not sure if they read this forum or not. I will be patient and see how things go, maybe a slow thread. I have a 2005 V6 Sport Edition. I have always wanted a Runner, but always had other bills to worry about or it wasn't a good time. I decided to get my new Runner before I can't enjoy it :) I was thinking about a V8, and worried about the mileage. I hear that the mileage is actually pretty close to that of a V6. I love my truck and have no regrets.
 
hello....well, i guess there are 3 of us now on the island that enjoy our runners and are willing to make some posts on here. :) still breaking my V8 in...but second fill-up indicates d@mn near 20 mpg. not too bad for a gas guzzler, but i'm sure even 4 cylinder owners are not liking this outrageous $3.50 a gallon crap!!!
 
Wassup guys, never thought about checking out in here.

This is actually exactly what i did when i had my altimas and was on the forum. never bothered to check out the regional forums.

Anyways, good to see some other guys on here. Although i'm not much into the modding out since i modded my altima to the max and i'm short for money as a college student, i've done some ICE things. Traded my altima in for the 4runner and love it!
 
Good to see more Hawaii people showing up here. I really love my Sport, but kinda wish I got the V8 (4 da sound :D )

Who knows of a good place to get aftermarket parts here on Oahu?
 
Hey, guys!

I am looking to buy a new 2006 4Runner V6 2WD Sports Edition and have a question for you... can you bargain/negotiate with the Servco dealerships here in Hawaii?

I have a qoute of $31300 after savings of ($1700) and includes taxes and fees for one with option A (running lights, rear spoiler, ...). There is a sale going on right now thus the savings of $1700.
 
Hey FlipIam,

Don't think you can bargain with them, but you can try. You can also see my sales rep (Darrick Kaya)at Kaimuki Toyota. He gave me a pretty decent price.

That seems to be a good deal (at least a standard savings) based on the one I worked. I worked out a good deal over here at Windward Toyota with Dennis. Then I called a salesperson I was talking to over in Waipahu to see if he could beat it. 10 minutes later he called back and told me that he couldn't beat it and informed me that they are all Servco (which I knew) and couldn't go below the price I already had. I wonder if they have a deal between them allnot to under cut each other. I didn't tell either one I was looking elsewhere but I think they might have tipped him off in the computer system.

Anyway, I am going to be picking up my New '06 V8 Titanium Limited package "B" next week. I cannot wait. I chose the V8 because as 808Sport mentioned there is very little difference in the gas milage.

When you make an offer on the 4Runner make sure you research the invoice price (which is still higher than what the dealer pays for the car) and offer according to that. Don't negotiate using MSRP (sticker) as the reference. I used Edmunds.com to get all the pricing details.
 
Servco

Servco links all the computers between the dealers. The first person who enters your name gets the sale. That is the reason why no one will beat a price once. I never tried this but if you have a spouse or significant other you pretend that they are getting the car so that their name is entered into the system.
 
There are a few spots and I am not to sure if they are private or not, but try looking up Kaena Point and Peacock Flats. Fireteacher are you coming here to live?
 
HAWAII's in da House!!:dancin:

FlipIAm Of you nevah get your yet - Word I also got was to go se Dereck KAYA should now be at Mapunapuna.

I was told he just sells cars period, and gives the lowest price possible. He makes his bonus off the TOTAL ANNUAL Amount of vehicles he sells.

I think he's one of the only salesguys with his own secretary and that you gotta make an appointmetn to see him!
 
what up guys. another shout out from the 808. got an '06 on 20's.
true, how we need a 4R club down here seeing how popular they are now. even seen a cop's 4runner on 20s. my brothers and some of my friends have 4Rs and been thinking about making a club for some time now.

I think there is a local chapter of a Tacoma club here that still gets together and does cruises, I forgot the name, though.

There are a couple of truck clubs, mostly dropped/bagged minis and full-size trucks. There are a couple of bagged Tacomas around that come out to meets/cruises.

I don't know of any specific 4R clubs, but there is a Toyota cruise coming up around the end of the month. Info is posted up on local forums, it's pretty much any Toyota vehicle welcome.

BUMP! for Hawaii and my first post :dancin: ... so would this club be limited to the 4th gens or all 4runners ?

Nice looking 2nd gen! Just got to check out some of the local forums and see what's up. There are generally more truck cruises than specific 4x4 cruises, although there are a few 4x4 clubs.

Tacoma club is fairly active and some of their members make it out to most cruises.
