TW's active 4runner builders BS thread

You're so retro. Have to give it to ya on this one...sweet look'in bus!!

 

What's an AC tundra?

All true. The mileage is still better than my 3.0 though :/ My step dads gets a little better mileage I think but that's probably because of the extended cab. Turning radius does blow though too. Suspension isn't quite as good either but man that thing is still sweet. If only he didn't own it. He mistreats it so much

Long gone

Since you're everywhere you mind helping me rebuild my engine?

 

You guys seen these trailers? I think that if I had a garage and time, I could definitely build one for cheaper. Still an awesome thing to have though. I really want to build one in the long run.

ya they are pretty legit. ive been building something similar. its fun to do it your self cause you get to pick everything on it.


i didnt realize you are in los angeles we should go on a run with that new runner of yours, i want to hit up big bear.

 

So do I! I go to UC Santa Barbara though so I'm in SB right now. I'll be around next month though probably.

 

Access cab

They are sweet. I just don't know how enjoyable it would be to tow for more than 5 hours a day 3 days or more. No question for payload and fuel mileage they make sense.

 

*cough cough*

same thing different term.

 

Having that queen size bed inside with hard walls to keep wind out though would be so nice. I love glamping

 

Right. Toyota just called them access cab.

 

sorry this is the first time i logged on the actual computer in a long time so its like seeing a whole new world. you up in big bear now?

 

The only "light" thing I have towed is an atv trailer with tiny wheels behing my work f250. May have ruined small trailers for me. Haha. Lot of big holes here.

 

Still same thing.

Its cool. That I am lol. Working on the runner as we speak!

 

well shoot lets go on a run!!!! when are you free? ive never snow wheeled.

 

I'm pretty much free whenever right now. Problem is the runner isn't moving any time soon :/

 

well i have a buddy that wants to come you can ride with me and show us the trails. are they pretty accessible right now or is there too much snow.

 

I'm in total agreement..these trailers are sweet looking. Talk about making camping easy and a whole lot more fun/convenient!!

Sam...I'm so with you on this. I just don't know how fun it would be dragging a trailer through 3-4 states. To me I think this would take all the fun out of the trip.

Now, if I could take a trailer out and set up camp...go out 4Wheeling and come back to camp each night...then this would be the cats meow!!

 

I have thought that a full size truck with a flippac and a small motorcycle on the back would be cool. Comfortable, and you can set up a base camp and explore on a dirt bike.

 

It's not too bad either way. Setting up camp takes like 8 min with it and take down is about the same. Mine takes a beating and uses a bit more gas.

It's deff my favorite to set up camp and go wheeling and leave it put. Then you have nothing in the 4Runner and can unhook and go. My trailer also holds my dirtbike on it so that's a huge benefit.

 

I honestly have no clue. I just got back. I think they're accessible but the road I'm thinking of is dangerous when it gets late so we definitely want to keep that in mind.
