Time for a 6" lift and 33s, like my friends did to their 4runner.

^The redneck in me thinks those trucks look cool. The :wv: farmer in me always wondered why anybody would raise the center of gravity and put the tailgate that much higher off the ground.

That's why I always like the Comanche's and J-10 pickups. 4wd and low bed heights.

Wife will probably put the kibosh on that, so I'll have to save it for the Wrangler Rubicon once we get the 4Runner square.

Here it is lads, the new addition to the family. The 2005 4Runner, limited w/ most all options, 111k miles, for $15.2k this evening. Was probably still $500 too high based on the KBB for Private Party but this was through a Toyota dealer and I didn't feel like nickle pinching those poor bastards any more. It's a nice ride (till something breaks, science forbid...), would have probably wondered off soon if I didn't make a move. JSYK, I was told by the financing guy at the end that we just made some 13' cutoff date for the rates we got, in case anyone is out looking. We locked in a 60mo. for 2.75% w/ sub $250/mo payments but will be shooting our eye out to pay this pup off by xmas next year. .......HO... HO... HO!

That's a sweet ride. I like the color too. We bought a new 2011 back about 15 months ago. Same color. I love the thing. It might ride a bit like a truck, but that's what we need here in the mountains. They are very capable off road. Ho ho ho.

The bank ok'd a 60mo term on a 7/8 year old vehicle? Cool. It's always nice to get the payments stupid low then turn around and pay it off early. Helps having that cushon helps.

Fixt. This was an option, but didn't come on the one we bought. I think you can still get them after market as I've seen them on other listings, but we won't for the dogs. The whole reason we were leaning to the 4runner was for the rear window roll down feature. Perfect space back there for our two fur balls. My Ram seats 5 comfortably, but then the dogs have to free ball it in the back and they hate that. Now they won't have to.

Yeah, my thinking exactly. We could have even gotten the 72, but It really didn't matter at that point. My truck is the same year, and has been paid off for 5. If we can get the new to us ride off the books, we should be sitting fine in a couple years for either a Jeep Rubicon or a 67' chevelle. Haven't thought that far ahead.

Ha ha ha, it's my FEMALE friend's 4runner so I don't think she'd be offended.

They live in CO, where there is ample opportunity to actually benefit from a lifted vehicle. My jeep only has a 2" lift, so I'm not compensating or anything. . .

Put 'em in a cage and tie 'em down like a good republican....they love that.

I dunno, when ever we say "skit dem witnesses" they always bark at the guys in ties.
