ayyy thanks for the kind words guys

whaaaaat?  you fancy now.

Scotty, this looks great for you guys! Everything you need, nothing you don't. In the vein of "fancy" - I have friends who bought a 4Runner Limited a few years ago and I see that one as an eyebrow-raising purchase. As you said, the modern tech isn't there, and these just are not luxury-esque vehicles in the first place. The sensible lower-trim models are perfect for what y'all are going to do.

Traded the Xterra or planning on selling private party? Feel free to post about the buying process and of course, the trips you take. Eager to read about it all!

thanks man - look I DO NOT understand the appeal of the 'runner Limiteds. and our local dealer sells the hell out of them. like, this is a full frame off-roader and you just put 20's on it with 245/60 series street tires...wtf is the point now? i see them all over town and just shake my head.

xterra's likely gone by Friday, private sale. i listed it Monday morning and by lunch i had 3 people trying to show up that day with cash in hand. all of them parents trying to buy a car for their 16 year old, which makes sense. the way i see it i either wrote a killer FS ad or priced it like an idiot (3500). probably the latter. should get 1500 more than trade in though.

Time to plan some trips with ya BOIIIIIIIIII.

not kidding about getting it dirty and i still have an unhealthy obsession with the Mid Atlantic Backcountry Discovery Route. we need to figure this out

Tested one of these before picking up the GC.  Between the tech and the trucky ride, the GC just fit our (minivan-stigma-avoiding suburban street car, only been on the beach once) needs better.

But we both still remark on how sweet they look when we come across them.  Sounds perfect for y'all!

lol on keeping that paint in that condition, good luck!

said it before but i 100% get it, its a big old wagon body on a pickup frame. for most people its a bad fit. heck, for most 4Runner OWNERS its a bad fit.

i'd love to grab a set of TRD Pro wheels on the second hand market which might solve the lame stock tires problem at the same time....because they look so damn good. but for now, gotta let the steam blow off from the bank account.

you're ice cold. let me have my dream of not-haggard paint, for once!

Could that be any more black?

false, it cannot. this was what my wife insisted on. the Xterra read 108 degrees last week. we're full blown retarded.
