New 4th gen Owner in Georgia

[Craigers]

My wife is pregnant for our first and was recently rear ended in her Civic. It was minor but enough of a scare for me to want to get her something bigger for when the baby comes.

I've been wanting a 4Runner for years now so we ended up with a 2005 V6 4x4 Sport Edition with 150K miles, leather, sunroof, and JBL system! I couldn't be happier! Though gas mileage is a killer coming from a Honda Civic! The 4Runner does have 265/70r17 Nitto Terra Grappler's on it...have a feeling that has something to do with the low mpg.

Just changed the oil (so easy on the V6!), have a few items coming to clear the headlights and remove the awful pinstripe this weekend.

Congrats x2! The 4Runner is definitely a safer and smarter option. BTW, 2005 models are the best

Nice T4R and welcome!

I am in GA as well in duluth. Do you have any plans for any mods?

 

[Craigers]

Thanks all! No plans for any mods at this time. With it being the wife's DD I probably won't be able to touch it for awhile.

Live in ATL.

What dealer did you buy it from?

 

[Craigers]

I actually bought it from an independent dealer in SC. It was the only reasonably priced 2005+ V6 4x4 Sport I could find in the region.
