What did you have before your 4Runner?

2016 AWD Honda CR-V. Definitely has done it's job for what I like, but as I've begun to off road more and more, it just severely limits me. 4Runner should land at the end of the month, so hopefully early June it'll be here in town.

Best small suv on the market! That is what I would be driving if the 4Runner didn't exist haha
 
2003 f150 fx4
Got it right before Graduating HS. 5yrs and 100,000 miles later I
Swapped a rust free body, put 34" Toyo MTs, front and rear diffs rebuilt, 4:10s, Detroit in the rear, chromoly shafts, the works. HID retrofit heads, custom alum driveshafts, full gauges. Truck was stout and the best vehicle I ever had. Extremely reliable and never left me stranded. The gear swap was the downfall of the truck. I paid a shop almost $3,000 it do it and it got redone 5 times and spent 89 days at the shop. He couldnt get it setup right, and kept sending me bills. I wasted so much money on needing a rental car, getting rides to work, and taking vacation days while it sat at the shop. Finally got tired and took it to another drivetrain shop, paid to have to redone, and sold it the night I picked it up. Sold the lightning super supercharger swap to a HS kid for a good chunk of change.
New owner texted me and his wife totaled it last week

I drove my IS350 for the last 5 years before I traded cars with my dad.
I needed something with beefier tires since my fiance and I have been doing a lot of camping trips.

Before 4R

I owned a 2009 FJ Cruiser. Too many mods to list. Here's a pic of her before a trip to Ouray.





Also, before that a Nissan 350Z with too many mods to list also



I also owned a Black Jeep Wrangler with no mods :hurt: I sold it and the 350 for a fully paid for FJ. There a lot more pics if anybody is interested

Always had a Yota!

First car was a chick magnet- 2001 Toyota Sienna Mini van :pound:
Next I had a '03 Sequoia- loved the iForce V8 engine
Currently own my SkyRunner- 2007 4Runner SR5 4WD!
 
Was driving a '01 civic LX, transmission is starting to slip now. Just a work rig now.
Before that I had an 88 Ford Taurus hatchback, that had a V6 fuel injected engine. It could scoot for how ridiculous it looked. Even had a bra (it was my grandparents since they bought it brand new) haha glad that thing is gone.


T4R '04 SR5 V6 - Galactic Gray Mica - Revtek 3" lift - Toyo Open Country AT2 285/70r17
 
I was stationed all throughout Europe for the past 6 years or so. I bought her for $3,000 with 90k miles. It came with a corny mid-wing and 18in chrome wheels. Driven her in Germany, France, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Belgium, and Turkey with no issues. I wish I was able to bring her back to the states with me. Man I miss this car. Great on gas and reliable. And fit perfectly through all those narrow roads out there lol.
