Ahh, just bullshitting...has been forever since I've been on here. Sometime in the future I'll have to pick your brain on the raised intake

Ha, yea I'd be curious to poke around on a 4th gen hemi air intake vs a 4g cummins intake...The cummins intake is what my 3g hemi should have been

Re: Holy Shit...Whats new

Traded to 2019 ZR2, Red.
4Runner was a GREAT vehicle but could not even tow our 6x10 enclosed utility trailer comfortably, even when it was empty-ish.
It was time. Truck was still leaking BADLY every time it rained or snowed & melted. It was leaking at every single gasket (rear window, front window, all 4 doors). You could sit inside & watch it run down the inside of windshield, rear window & drip off the upper side door beams. It was molding on the inside & starting to stink. Needed new steering gearbox, shocks, new upgraded T-style steering, tires, brake lines, d/s manifold bolts that are barely recognizable due to rust-removed & replaced. Everyone around here would not even touch em once they looked at them.
So, say what you will. PW turned into a money pit. Was no longer a joy to drive. Hoping that this downsized 4x4 with lockers will fill the bill & have minimal problems, but..... As long as manufacturers keep making engineers design things that fail soon after warranty is up, we are going nowhere fast. Regardless of what you buy.

Re: Holy Shit...Whats new
3G is gone...still kicking myself everyday for selling that thing. The new cummins alien arm'd with 3.0 kings is ok I guess...have some arb lockers and 4.56's sitting on the shelf for when I get back next year. So hopefully it'll be back up to power wagon standards one of these days here
