    Hello everyone. Traded in my TacomaOR for a Lexus GX460 for the wife and our long roadster. I got the hand-me-down 2017 4runner which is now the boat hauler, dog hauler, over the sand (beach) vehicle, and the around town ride.

    Funny you say that. I was the one who pushed to buy it and she came around and agreed. Now, she wont get out of it and has little interest in the 4runner! LOL

    Figures!

    I bet you're not all that broken up about going from a Taco to a 4R either, though...there are probably at least a dozen threads about that on 4runners.com.
