    Hello from Louisiana!

    I am a Toyota convert, I used to have a Nissan Juke but it didn’t treat me too well, nor did Nissan as a whole, and it was time to upgrade, so I bought a 4Runner! I bought it off a coworker of mine, it's a 2002 SR5 Sport edition with only 133,000 and in immaculate condition. He’s already got a couple of mods, like Bilstein shocks (not totally sure which kind) and a K&N cold air intake. So far the only thing I will be needing to do, and soon, is replace the valve cover gaskets. I do all maintenance myself, I’m not a believer in dealerships and I generally avoid mechanics, though I have one for serious repairs. Looking forward to being apart of the community and sharing ideas!
