    For me, in direct order of who checks me out the most...

    1) Modified 4Runners
    2) Modified Tacomas
    3) Modified Jeeps

    • I've seen 4Runner guys nearly break their necks.
    • The modified Tacoma guys do it, but some do it a little slyly...they certainly can't be arsed to turn their heads too far before they remember that they are also at the top of the food chain and can't be caught admiring too hard.
    • The modified Jeep guys are pretty close to the Tacoma guys. They all look, but nowhere near as much as the 4Runner guys do.

    Note that I say "guys" but I mean everyone...the modified 4Runner ladies ... I sometimes think they're gonna U-Turn and follow me home they stare so hard.

    And a pic because...this thread might be worthless without em?

    Seems like a pretty stock truck, not sure why people would be staring.

    You sure you aren't driving like an ass and people are staring in disbelief?

    That's what usually gets me to stare. Like is this person on drugs? Drinking? Should I call the cops?

    Not a big fan of jeeps. But my Tacoma and my partners 4Runner both have Canada flags below the mirrors and I find fellow Toyotas trucks are always looking at that. Also I come from a pretty small town I think I have the only pro around that I have seen

    Couple shitheads tried stealing my truck bout a month ago and ripped off my driver's side door handle. They made it inside but werent skilled enough to take off with it.

    Got pulled over almost every day driving around without the door handle.

    "is this your truck? where you going?"

    No kidding. Sorry OP, but this will certainly win the douche nozzle thread of the day award.

    They did drop a $5 bill in the cab tho...so a new handle/lock/internal components etc cost me only 1095 instead of 1100! They were so thoughtful

    For a handle?! That's crazy.

    Was it at / near home?
