I don't have any pics, but I use the lift gate for shade and sometimes as a rain shelter while camping or picnicing.
 
Nice use of Runner!
I used my old Runner to try to move a jersey barrier once....turns out 4Runners are no good at that, especially when you take a running start at the barrier :)
 
Daytona International Speedway 4th of July NASCAR race

In true redneck form I use my rig as a platform for watching the race.

The outriggrs carry most the weight.

I have 3 different size tables I can put on the back - this is the XL. You can also see the race weekend set up.

Here is the normal camp set up I use for camping/summer adventures (and the "beach/camp table).

Here is ADV set up. You can see kind of see the base plate on the back with the "happy hour mini table", just white chunk of ply.

Last one - the tail gate. Designed to sit flush with the lip of the rear bumper - could be my all time fave.

thats an awesome idea....did you build the whole setup for your tables, or did you find the l bracket pieces already manufactured?
 
I had to get a bunch of large plants for a display at work. Only one way I could figure out to get them back from Lowes!

The Honolulu Police Department (Hawaii) has a subsidized vehicle program where qualifying police officers can use their personal vehicles when they are on duty. They can purchase vehicles from a list of approved vehicles and the police department outfits them with a police radio, computer, siren and removable roof light bar. The police department pays the officers a monthly allowance including fuel. Many police officers in this subsidized vehicle program use 4th generation 4Runners.

A long time ago there were some cool pics of the PD's 4Runners.

Moved to General... I am sure some other gens have been used creatively:D
 
I don't have pictures, but....

When we were building our house, there were some really large concrete slabs in the way...then the concrete truck emptied it's chute right on top of them. Made a large heavy mess. We needed to get them out of the way, and one truck could not do it on it's own.
We strapped both my Wife's 97 & my 96 in series, put them both in 4wd low, and pulled that huge mess out of the way.

Of course, the next day there was a bobcat there to do some dirt work...
Oh well, we had fun anyway :)
 
Colemanfu rocks!

Cool as all get out Colemanfu

that is not redneck style that is some awesome creativity there.

great thread.

No pics- but I used my red 95 2nd gen to bullfight a cow that refused to move one time and that sucker head butted my passenger door. Not a steer just a cow... no real damage incurred...

Colemanfu,
Is that a 620 KT Hog on the back your 4Runner? That's a bit of weight on the rear ;->. I had a 600 and a 620. Heavy but bullet proof. Kick Twenty Minutes. Have graduated to electric start KTMs.
