We had one of these threads running over on the RX-7 forum way back. interested to see what you guys come up with, I'll continue to edit this first post with a list of everyones joke...so someone start it!
You know you're a 4Runner owner when...
you get used to replacing head gaskets (2nd gen?)
you say "hey theres another 4runner" and point it out on the road while you drive
you pull stuck Ford F250 Super Duty pickup trucks out of the mud and their owners just don't believe it.
you pass a city bus stuck in the snow and curse at yourself for leaving your tow strap at home.
mother nature gives you her worst, and you make the best of it! *one of my favorites*
you can tell what year it is at a moment's glance
you're walking away from your vehicle in a parking lot and you take a quick look back to admire it from a distance.
you say a leaking axle seal is 'no big deal'
you drive for days with your fuel light on but never run out of gas
you think 240k is just broken in!
you laugh inside at your friends taking in their new cars to get fixed and your 4Runner just keeps going and going and going and going and going.......
you can't resist logging into this fine t4r.org website.
the only pictures you have in your wallet/phone/facebook are pictures of your RIG!!!
you look in every 3rd gens window to see if it has a locker and 5 speed.
you look at a hill that's more then a 45 degree incline and say no biggie
your window tint is made of mud
you dont even have to jack it up to change the oil
two tires cost more then the rent
you have more Land Cruiser and FJ parts installed than 4Runner parts
your driving and you see another 4runner and you say to yourself "i wonder if that person is on the forum."
you buy an extended warranty and never needed to use it
you look forward to blizzards just to try out your new tires
you walk into stationary objects because you are looking back at your truck
when you endanger the lives of yourself and your passengers because you were checking out your truck in the reflection of a store's windows as you drove by
keep 'em coming!!
