    Hello,
    long story short, My neighbor as a kid got a brand new 1988 4Runner and I have wanted one ever since. Didn't expect it to take me until my 40s to afford one but here we are. : )

    I'm super excited to join the list of happy 4Runner owners and also happy to join this page. I have already used it to confirm that the clicking noise from under my dash is normal when I start it up and hit 4 mph. I thought I messed my truck up somehow already. ;)20241110_114413.jpg 20241110_180756.jpg

    Hey! Have you guys found any decent trails around the area. I have found a few small ones in Punta Gorda.

    Yes, sir. Sometimes it looks black even in the daytime, depending on how the light hits it. I sought it out because I thought it looked cool but also because its the only year its available on a gen 5.

    Not a hard trail. But beautiful trail. It’s the Jungle Trail. Long. Runs along the Indian River most of the way. Not right on the water but through the trees

    That's perfect. I'm inexperienced so "not hard" is fine with me to get a bit of confidence in the vehicle. I'm gonna check that out, now. Thanks!
