What did you drive before your 4Runner

Believe it or not, a 2009 BMW 328i.

Had it for 6 months since I thought I needed to get away from trucks for a while but it didn't last. Great car but have hockey playing kids so the Bimmer wasn't working.

Love the 4runner but I'll be back in a BMW car at some point later. It sat in the garage this whole past winter when a lot of fun could have been had with a T4R.
 
1996 4Runner SR5 4WD, traded in at 217k miles on 2008 Sport V8 AWD.

I'm sure missed a few parts cars and beaters but then again I've only been driving about 21 years.... LOL
 
I drove a brand new 2006 Acura TL, 6 speed manual w/ nav. Less then 6 mos later I picked up my slightly used 2003 4Runner...still have the TL but love, love my 4runner!!
 
1992 mazda protege LX, 4 wheel disc brakes and power sunroof!! hell yeah!! blown engine....then a 97 nissan maxima, my high school car and test car for alot of mods that went half finished in it...just lost interest or cash flow....still have the nissan...why? I dunno
 
2007 Subaru STI Limited sold her with only 25k miles, very sad sale favorite car I've ever owned. Just needed something more practical. I have to say though I'm totally happy with my replacement. Muchh cheaper to modify the 4runners as well!
 
Had me a 2006 Accord, that was paid for, and one day it was in the driveway and some moron decided that speeding through the neighborhood was a good idea, lost control and totaled it for me while it was parked! Anyhow it allowed me to get my 4R which I am totally thrilled with and am looking forward to owning and driving for many many years to come!

a 2003 sport edition, before that a 1999 sport edition before that a rav4 before that a 1995 4runner before that a 1991 land cruiser before that a dodge neon before that a 1994 toyota pick up and bwfore that 91 4runner 89 4runner 87 4runner 1996 toyota pick up 1974 toyota pick up 1978 celica 1980 supra 1981 toyota pick up,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
 
I drove a base model 95 Corolla 5 speed for 3 years until I was finally graduated college and desided to upgrade to a fully loaded 4runner...so far it's been amazing! 4 cyl 115ft/lbs torque to an 8 cyl 320ft/lbs torque, can't complain about anything but gas mileage haha

1993 camry till my sister got her license, then a 98 camry till someone decided to run a red light right in front of me. When car shopping, I had to see what I fit in and suprisingly, a lot of SUVs curve their roofs down in the front so I can't see squat. Came down to an xB or a 4th gen 4Runner. I opted to buy my aunt's 2003 4Runner.
 
'87 Chevy Cavalier
'88 Pontiac Grand Am
'01 Pontiac Grand Am GT
'90 Chevy Beretta
'05 Scion tC
'07 Scion tC (still my favorite)
'05 MINI Cooper S

The 4Runner is my first four door.
