Hey all, new to the site. I am planning on picking up a 4Runner later this fall and I'm torn between the 1st and 2nd gen trucks. I've done quite a bit of research and people seem to really like both. I plan to find a 22re powered, manual truck in either generation. Is the running gear pretty similar between the two? Did the newer trucks get stronger differentials etc?
I really like the 2 door body style of the 1st gen, and since I live near the coast being able to pop the top off and cruise on the beach really appeals to me.
However the slightly more refined 2nd gen also appeals as this will be a daily driver for me, and if I can find a 2 door 2nd gen I would be equally happy with that.
Just wondering if I could get your opinions, thoughts and advice. Thanks and happy trails!
