Seeing that dealer plate on there definitely hits with some nostalgia—takes you right back to when it was fresh off the lot in 2003. Crazy to think these pics are 20 years old now!

I know!!! Found them by accident today, and had to post up knowing it’s fun to see a new old car of any kind. I had tried to buy a used 99-2000 Prerunner and it was about same in Aug of 03 to buy that one new. I just bought my 98 last month and it sure is nice to be driving one again. I gave up the 03 in summer 04 in favor of an 89 4Runner which was equipped with “payments delete.”

Wow! Great pictures! That's pretty much the same truck I bought new in 2003, but I never sold mine.
