    Hi everybody- a guy at my work owns this 4Runner. He told me about his vehicle, and 5th Gen Off-Road 4Runners in general. I now have a deposit on something similar. It's possible I will get it in July.

    I'm really excited. I told the dealer that a 4Runner is the only vehicle I want, and that there is not even a close 2nd.

    Hi muddyix- I wish that Army Green vehicle was mine...I like everything about it. But it belongs to a coworker. I showed these pics to my dealership, and told them that this is Exactly what I'd like, right down to the Army Green and wheels. I plunked down a deposit, in late Feb, to get in line for a TRD Off Road. He told me there were 4 people in front of me, and he wouldn't/ couldn't promise any color/ config. I said OK...I'm flexible.

    My guy at New Holland took this pic, and sent it to me, the day it arrived at his dealership (Friday morning, June 10th).

    I had committed to buying it, almost two months prior (April 22nd). He told me, in a phone call, that Toyota had it allocated for them, and right then, we agreed on the price.

    I did the final paperwork on Monday, June 13th, before work (I work 2nd Shift).

    I bought my 4Runner at New Holland Auto (Pennsy) on Monday. For me, owning & driving the vehicle is a dream come true. My sales guy, Dan, helped me, from my $500 deposit, thru the present. He's a big fan of the 4Runner (he owns one), and he showed me, over two days, how to use the shifter and gearbox.

    Hi TRDLE- I re-read my June 11th post, and I edited it for clarity. I did in fact have to put a deposit on a 4Runner, on Feb 28th, just to have a chance of getting one. New Holland hasn't had an unsold 4Runner arrive on their lot all year. I say that because I work near there, and I have been regularly checking since before the New Year. Honestly, I would have been happy with any of the TRD Off Roads, but it wasn't happening, so I decided to go for this one. By the way, yours looks great with the mud!
