What did you do with your 4runner today?

I'm sick of automatic. I'm sick of fixing things that I break (I have LOTS to do, including ANOTHER new trans within 10-15k from now because this is starting to shudder) and I just want something fresh.

HOWEVER, they gave me an estimate of $7,500 because of the $1,800-ish worth of damage to the passenger rear, so I'll be keeping her for a while longer.

I REALLY want a freakin manual. I sometimes question why I got a 4R instead of an FJ or Taco to start with. If I could do it over again, I'd be in an FJ.

Oh well. I still love my truck and will probably end up keeping her til the wheels fall off! Might peruse CL for an 04+ V6 6spd 4x4 with decent miles

holy hell, no offense but that's a killer trade for an '03. Did you strip the '03 before trading it or give them all the mods as well?

I didn't have a lot of mods at that point, just 9 aftermarket speakers and my K&N drop-in filter, and an upgraded 4 gauge battery wire, but they wanted to send me home in the new truck that night and I kept trying to explain to them that I had to go home and pick up the truck another day. But I did take it home that night and swap all the stock speakers and tweeters back into the car and swap in a stock air filter, and then bring it back the next day. :banana:

Hmm.. Interesting take on things.. I have always been a manual transmission type of guy as well, so I know where you are coming from.

It's always nice and refreshing to drive an auto from time to time though, especially one that you can take to the mountains and have a great time..



maybe keep your runner AND get a 6speed :tea:

But a 6 speed is more fun in the mountains lol

Looking at Subaru now. Might lease a DD so I have the downtime to fix my baby

Is that a Nexus 7 tablet? I have a OBD II Bluetooth module running to my Nexus 7 running the Torque app.

Same here, I will only use the Tablet for long drives, it's a bit large for my liking, unless I mount it on this Amazon.com: High Grade Adjustable Seat Bolt Car Mount Vehicle Handsfree Holder for Google Nexus 7 / Galaxy Tab 2, 3, 4 / Asus Memopad / Lenovo Ideapad / Verizon Ellipsis and All 7 Inch Tablets w/ Robust Vibration Free Cradle: Cell Phones & Accessorie
which I'm thinking of doing, not sure yet. I run it off of my S3 and it looks just as good, the only thing is the roll and pitch gauges, they are not very accurate but that's because it gets its data from the cellphone and not the vehicle itself.
