You know your driving a classic TR4 when...

When you buy it for absurdly cheap completely neglected, but it still manages to run and drive after years of sitting unattended

When you tell your friends how awesome it is, but they never actually see it because it doesnt leave the house and isn't road legal
yet.










:moping: or maybe that's just me
 
as much as the 5th gens cost, you will need back seats since none of your friends can afford to buy one lol.

much funnier to have several 1gen rigs on the trail than all packed in one 5th gen that is afraid to get scratched

i would love to have a 5th gen if i can afford it but much rather spend it on other toys

You know what's "much funnier"?

You getting your panties in a bunch thinking i'm bad mouthing 1st gens :pound:

Keep it real!
 
That's funny 'cause I have both. The Bronco hasn't had it's lid on in 9 weeks so far.

It literally happened the day I posted it.

Sometimes it catches the attention of Jeep drivers and sometimes I get the wave from them. Some people have told me it's a cool truck, others want to know if I custom made it. While on the road I see people look at it and laugh, whether they like it or not I don't know, but it's fine. I like it and that's when I know I'm driving a classic T4R.
 
When your 3.0 is running perfectly and it makes you paranoid.

You are so right! Mine is running great right now, and it does have me worried...LOL!

When you notice other drivers doing a triple take wondering "is that a 1st gen. Runner?"

When you completely replaced the entire drivetrain, bored the 22RE .020 over, added a "crawler" cam, oversized stainless valves, Tri-Y header, and yet it's no quicker than it was when it was stock. (Course I added approx. 500 extra lbs. of stuff and it's turning larger tires than the stock tires)

When other Toyota owners drool all over your Runner and have to keep rags in the truck to wipe it off with.
 
When you look around and see just how many of these trucks are still on the road....
and you are like
damnnnnnn
