    I threw in the towel on the constant repairs to my wife's Chrysler Town and Country at 75,000 and got her a 2013 4Runner SR5 (in 2WD :( because she'll never use 4x4). It was Certified Used with 14,000 miles, and I got it with a 100K warranty for $28,000, which I think is a pretty good deal.

    This is a great SUV. The dual VVT-1 1GR is markedly better than our engine - very powerful and responsive. I really have no idea why they didn't put this into our trucks. The 4Runner also has 4 wheel discs and nice power seats at the SR5 level. Oh well, it's like a week to the 3rd Generation unveiling...

    A little of this and a little of that.
    Umm, you're parked next to a fire hydrant.

    Seriously, congrats on the 4Runner. Awesome vehicles IMO.

    Congrats on the 4runner. We just bought my wife a 2014 Trail 4runner and I love that thing. I'm actually trying to figure out a way to steal it from her!

    Looks good man. Been contemplating on getting a 4Runner for the past few months. I just don't utilize the bed on my truck. Test drive the 4 Runner Pro, pretty damn nice but pricey.
