    Welcome from North Carolina. Man that 4Runner probably blends in with the snow. Surprised you didn’t go with red or something. How has the adaption process been? Hot and humid summers, to mosquito heaven summers! But man those views in Alaska are amazing I bet. I have friends up there and my father grew up in Alaska. Just never been myself and always wanted to go.

    White with black accents actually looks good against the snow when clean haha almost all cars are grey during winter here anyways. Views are worth the climate change honestly.

    I just meant if you were out in the snow and a helicopter or plane went looking for you. Seems like white would be hard to find. However, white on black does look nice and I wanted a white 4Runner but they didn’t have one and I was impatient.
