2nd gen 22re w/deposit on 2022 ORP

Soon, I will have my first new 4Runner in 32yrs, it will have a tough act to follow…..going to keep “Goldie” forever though.

 

Congrats, welcome to the forum. Pics. Of Goldie please.

 

Most most versatile, reliable vehicle ever made.

 

Very nice, one of the cleanest i have seen.

 

CA/NV truck…zero rust…..but….you haven’t seen the other side, a bit of trail rash.
It is my around town vehicle and air conditioned SxS on BLM now so it acquiring more “pin stripes” weekly.

 

Welcome from Arizona! Goldie looks pretty fine.

 

Thank you from the Carson Valley!

 

Welcome from SoCal

Goldie is still looking good

 

Goldie a stick or auto?

 

Welcome from Wisconsin! Goldie is sharp.

 

Welcome from Florida

 

Stick. It is a zero option truck, zippo, nothing. No: CC, PW, door locks, radio, power mirrors, variable wipers(only 2speeds). I added the factory AC kit, roof rack, clock, stereo, TruTrac and 1” rear spring spacer. You can take the doors off and not disconnect ANY wires.

 

Thank you from the Carson Valley.

 

Very nice. Reminds my of my 94. 22re 5 speed. 4 cylinder is a rare get for second gens as everyone wanted the V6 after fuel prices eased up in the 90's.

 

Thank you,
It was our primary family car for the first 14yrs and it was garaged, then we bought a Armada in 04 and Goldie got kicked out, now at my new house with more bays it has enjoyed garage again for the last 5 years..…until the 22 shows up, approximately half of it’s life it has been garaged.
Brought both my boys home from the hospital with it, wife brought them to/from school with it, they both learned how to drive in it, my youngest used it at college to get his masters and now I have it back. It has a lot of history and memories, it is a adopted member of the family.
BTW the Armada’s 5.6 is a awesome engine, a bit thirsty though, but man did it run good. The body quality is nowhere equal to Toyotas, but don’t try race one. The Expedition we were also looking at at the time was rated at the same HP but there is no comparison. The Armada was very underrated.

 

You have a very pretty one, much nicer than my plain-Jane. No one wanted the 4cyl back then, everyone wanted the 3.0.
Mine was a newspaper one-at-this-price leftover, late in 1990. They actually had 4 there, Red like yours, Black and two golds, all strippers.
The black one looked like it had a very rough test drive and someone beat me to the red one. $12K + the AC kit/rack at dealer cost. Taking it out on BLM today with a buddy to put more pinstripes on it.
