Well, think I may have bought a newer ride!

my034runner · 08-12-2020, 09:26 PM

Well, our shop foreman traded in his 2013 Trail Ed with 70k on the odo. Already has sliders, Icon, and wheels and tires.
But...….what it doesn't have, is the bumpers, skids, a second battery, front locker nor the upgraded gears yet. But, it has the rear e-locker, Crawl and Multi Terrain!!
Guess it's time for another slow build! Second battery is first on the list, then start working on Bumpers, etc.....
But, it has been owned by one of our Toyota Master Tech.'s (shop foreman)....so mechanically, should be perfect. Probably need to sell my034Runner, wasn't going to trade it in, as they wouldn't give me shlt for it...….it needs to go to someone who knows how to wrench, and wheel it for a few more hundred thousand miles!
My034Runner only has 140k miles on it...….but a lot of fun has been had for sure. And, I'd wager has the Lowest miles of Any of our 4th gens still driving today!!!

Anyway, If I pull the trigger tomorrow, which I probably will...….then whoever comes out to the Mojave Road trip next month will get to see it. I'll see if I can figure out how to post pics on here from my phone when it's cleaned up.

Right on, Robert! Your trusty '03 has seen quite a bit.

05sport4x4 · 08-13-2020, 01:44 PM

Time for an upgrade Robert. That's pretty low miles for 17 years. Maybe you need to get out more often.

my034runner · 08-13-2020, 03:26 PM

Thanks mates, haven't had a car payment in 10 years! Ouch!! If Bobby's (Darklight) truck would have been a V8 (and Not black again) I would have bought his 2008...….as he has it set up perfect!
And now that he reduced the price...….

I've really been waiting for someone, anyone to trade in a 2015 Inferno TRDPro…..the absolute hardest to get color of any model year 4Runner. But, want to talk about holding INSANE amounts of value, it's hard to even find one in the $30's, much less in the $20's! They're all closer to and Well over the $40k range.....still! But, if we do get one in trade that I can try and steal, I will.

Anyone know how to post a pic on here from an I Phone?

Yeah, well I live 10 minutes from work, and work six (6) days a week 12 hours + a day......….thus the crazy low ass miles!!! It should have well over 300k by now! Well, you guys are pretty mechanically inclined, maybe Adam needs a new project! Not really that bad of a project, as it is still my daily driver, front, rear and center lockers, bumpers, etc, etc...…

Just saying!!

Mikestang · 08-13-2020, 04:58 PM

If you combined the mileage from my '04 that was hit and wrecked with my '07 I would be at 297,000 miles.

Nice!! You can buy mine, swap in the 4.7, and be done and ready to go!!

my034runner · 08-13-2020, 07:41 PM

I haven't used it up, it has a couple hundred thousand more miles left on it. Just needs a few things maintenance wise, and it's all good!

Congratulations Robert, it's a beauty!
