    BUT- I just refreshed to a 2018 4Runner with 4WD, passed on my 99 to family. I started with cosmetics and blacked out the chrome.. added some LED interior and backup lights... Got the adapter and S/W to get into the computer.. but having problems with installing it. I'm thinking I'd like to find a support group in SoCal for 4Runners who want to find intro trails for newbies. ;)

    180,000 - pretty light, eh? Now it’s off to college with my kid. Thanks for the greeting Bob. My wife has noticed my wandering eyes.. just kept looking at newer 4Runners… finally said.. ok. We’ve saved enough. Got my ‘18 with 30k… looks good.

    I have a family member who lives the MiniCooper universe... they seem pretty tight nit... but 4Runners still rule (and can run them over pretty easily).
