What have you done to your 5th Gen 4Runner today?

If you have a wider shot of the vehicle with them on that would be great. These are on my shortlist

 

I was back and forth between these and the TOYO OC AT3.

 

@NOS4A2-1 They look good! I think its going to come down to availability between those or Rubitreks. I like the option of white letters too

 

god damn!!!

 

went with the toyo at..

 

Wonder if it would look better turned with the loop going the other direction.

 

how are you attaching it ?

 

trying the same as every other person I’ve read about; zip ties.
I bought nice, slim, UV rated ties

 

PAID HER OFF!

 

Best thing one can do these days! Secure your financial future my friend. Well done!

 

Congrats! Now don’t trade it in.

 

Best feeling ever!

 

Just ordered the supercharger and upgraded the sound system. I'm in it for the long run!

 

supercharger & long run doesn't sound like words going together. Good luck though..

 

What about some of us who wrote a check for the whole thing?

 

That is my new rule, if I can not buy in cash, I can not buy it. It can be a vehicle, starbucks coffee or anything else..

 

I have never borrowed money to buy a car, never ever in my life.

 

And I've drives junk boxes in life too. Don't borrow, increase your income.

 

I financed mine so I could get a discount on it after I confirmed there was no penalty for prepayment. Their finance guy was probably super pissed when I fedex’d in my first payment for the full amount.

 

They may not sound like they go together but they do

You're gonna love it. Don't listen to the naysayers about longevity as the Magnuson paired with the 4Runners 4.0 has a long and well documented history of long term reliability. Some have them and some don't

 

It is not about interest rate, I don't borrow money. I pay and forget.

 

Borrowing money is not good for your emotional well being. Pay and forget. If you can't pay, then wait till you are able to pay. In the meantime, buy a 3rd gen. I have driven my share of crappy vehicles in life

 

Met a smart kid and his girl friend on the trail the other day. They were 21 and had an 86 Toyota pickup. They said they were about to get married. They brought a smile on my face.

 

Got my Eibach suspension installed yesterday. Called and had dcm connection turned off today.

I'll post pics once it's not pouring rain

 

The solid white letters look good!

 

Eibach pro truck sport shocks/struts. 3/4" Eibach rear spring. Front lifted to 1.6".

 

Poor grammar aside, that seems to state you have no clue how finances work.

Please explain how exactly you think not borrowing increases income.

If you truly wanted to increase income, you would use the money to invest in something with a return higher than the interest rate you'd pay to finance a vehicle, rather than paying cash. The opposite of what you do is how to increase your income.

 

I meant increase your income so that you can save and pay in full. If you can't afford to write a check to buy anything, you cannot afford that anyting. PERIOD!

 

Well at least what you meant to say isn't quite as incorrect as what it seemed you were saying.

In any case, just FYI, writing checks is not something normal people do to pay for anything, regardless of whether they are paying in full. Also, it's very possible to put yourself in a much better financial situation by using financial markets to your advantage.

I understand your need to keep things very simple, and being able to pay cash for a 4Runner has been a a noteworthy financial achievement you feel the need to constantly remind this forum of. Congratulations on that!!!

Most people are capable of much more financial success and security if they can apply the same discipline and don't refuse to understand how things actually work.
