I think he's referring to the look of the front end. I hope one of the modifications involves doing something about the fish mouth on the front. Maybe you improve the front with some Nightshade version trim from a junk yard.

Or just run it into something - 4 times. (it's a 4 runner - get it? :D:D)

This was mine. I put a 2.5" Toytec lift on it, BFG KO2's and Infab side rails.

Otherwise it was pretty stock when I sold it. Moved into an F150 with 3.5 Ecoboost, a lot more pickup and power but I do miss the 4Runner.

Nice 4Runner. My wife's 2003 4Runner Sport is at nearly 300k with more to follow.

It may be the greatest vehicle on the planet, but Toyota and Lexus are working HARD to make a vehicle that makes the Pontiac Aztec downright sexy in comparison. The grill on that think is horrendous.

Enjoy it while driving, from behind the steering wheel you can't see how horrible it looks.

Nice trucks all!

As for ugly, I adore its homely style. True I hated it when the 5th Gen came out, but it has really grown on me.

VincentVega 07-01-2019 04:23 PM

Like a mole :)

Cool truck, I really want to checkout the new versions. I really, really like my dads taco, just a bit small for me.

Don't listen to the peanut gallery here.

It's a nice looking vehicle.

I just turned 65 last month and as a baby boomer grew up with what most would consider the era of the most beautiful and stylish vehicles we will ever create. I think (unfortunately for all new vehicle buyers) that is the bar that is set and nothing will ever change it.

Of course, others will have a different opinion - and that's fine.

Getting back to your new toy - enjoy it for what it is and don't worry about what others may say. Engineering wise they are fantastic which is something to really appreciate as well.
