    I'm the third owner (to my knowledge) so I cant confirm whether or not it was a factory install or a dealer retrofit, but since its got quite a few other factory options, and its an SX id say its a pretty safe bet it was on the truck new.

    That's got to be a pretty rare combination with the step side even. Plus it's "Pull me over" red. Very cool truck.

    Lol I have the Radiant 'Pull Me Over' Red too...few weeks after I got my truck in 2016 I still had dealer plates on it and I got pulled over by two cops for no reason other than they thought it might be a stolen vehicle. Had to show them the paper work from the dealership, luckily I still had it in the truck.

    The very 1st one made is probably a prototype that ends up like all the other prototypes, destroyed.

    Saw a 2002 standard cab today that had 4x4, Add hubs, 3RZ, automatic transmission and power windows/locks. Not a combo ID seen before. Was also gold paint and tan interior, not very common.

    I have never ever seen an S-Runner, I've worked on Toyotas since 2004.

    One showed up locally about a year ago, I hadn't seen one in person until then. There's also one sitting at a used car lot not far from me now too. Most of the S-runners probably ended up in CA, AZ and FL.
