TW's active 4runner builders BS thread

last of the 2015s

 

i dont move it much. camry is the DD, then the 4runner.
Taco is used for hauling or throwing stuff in bed. So it stays under the cover in the carport most of the time

 

I should DD my Camry butI like driving the 4Runner so much more. Plus with all the snow and ice the Camry sits a lot.

 

I came so close to buying a 2015 Taco. I'm not so sure I like the new 2016 yet. Then I know they also came out with a brand new V-6 also. But I do the same thing Ramon. I own 6 vehicles...and switch them up depending on weather, gas prices, and how I feel...lol!!

 

Ramon, why buy a 2015 if it doesn't get driven? Just curious. Seems like an older beater truck would suffice.

 

i actually traded in my 2013 Taco for it.

 

What lights do you have on there? Nice looking truck!

 

its a long term project.

ill have the 4runner for a good while..and when im done with it.. ill build the taco up.

ive always wanted a taco build, but i wanted the experience first..thats where the 4runner comes in.

after i learn off the 4runner and gain experience ill build the taco and sell the 4runner...

thats in a good 8-10 years.. very long term

 

i wanted a truck new from day one so ill know its history and i didnt want a new gen taco

 

they were hella lights

 

Looks nice Ramon. I'd done the same thing!! Get it while you can!

 

I wouldn't want a 2013...not really superstitious, just don't like the number 13! I perfer even numbers...all 6 of my vehicles are even numbered...just realized that...huh?!

Heck...even my Yamaha Raptor is an even number..2008!

 

@mr optimist
The toy I've been playing with recently

 

That looks like mine...except I opted to have a solid rear. I have a Rock Hard or is it a Rock Hopper?? FRIK'IN kick ass bike!! Love the disc brakes! How's the rear suspension on that one...my bike it 4-5 years old. Wondering if they've improved?? The rear looks different then when I bought mine.

 

I would love to get into mountain biking, but I already have enough expensive hobbies

 

After you buy your bike..that's about it..unless you break something. I bought my 4-5 years back...but I'm sure top of the line you can still be under $2000. It's funny, I did some pretty hard core mountain biking for a couple years. Lots of fun...then my buddy crash and snapped his collar bone, arm, 2 ribs. Crazy pain...missed 9weeks at work. I gave it that day. So now I have this high dollar fancey bike that I ride on the bike path with my wife...funny, but sad!!

 

I found one for about $1600 local, full suspension and disc brakes. I believe a lot of ski resorts around here allow you take the lifts up during the summer and ride down.

 

That makes sense. Wish I could afford more than one vehicle as I'd love to get a DD. I love driving the tundra but it's big and drink down gas.

 

That thing is so sick!!!

Mountain biking can get pricey fast. Haha

The only problem is that the dd has to be a cool one, then you start nodding that, and pretty soon you need a new dd.

 

That's what I figured. I need to build a computer this summer to support my photography hobby, and I want to get a suppressor and a new full size handgun. No money left for mountain biking...one day maybe
