    Hello,

    As my username states, my 4Runner was an impractical buy, but I really, really like it!

    My Dad had this 2015 Limited with 43,000 miles on it and kinda wanted a new one but didn’t really need it. He offered to sell it to me. I told him it was the most impractical thing to have as a commuter car. My wife wanted me to have something nice, and the rest is history.

    I’ve been lurking since December and now here I am.

    Did I say that I really, really like it!

    Financially, it's an impractical buy (although you probably got a good deal from Dad.)

    Life's curveballs make it the perfect AND practical choice.
