    Thanks again for everyone’s input. My new 4Runner arrived and I’ll be picking it up today. The parts for the lift will not arrive until the end of the month. We’ll be leaving on a trip on Wednesday, so I’ll have a chance to drive it on / off road before upgrading the suspension, wheels and...

    Parking anything in bozo is a challenge. Yes, I had looked at Butte first, but got a much better price at Ressler. Supposed to be delivered next week.

    That rig looks great! Excited to get mine. Thanks for sharing. What brand slider and roof rack is that?

    Thanks. I’m actually doing the lift and a few upgrades immediately. It may be more wise to wait and see how it performs before making changes, but I recently retired and my wife is encouraging me to treat myself. Great wife! I’ve done a lot of research and, based upon my intended use, am...

    I put a deposit on a 2020 4Runner TRD Off Road Premium with KDSS that I expect to pick up this week. I’m adding a small lift, A/T tires, etc. Mixed feelings, as I’ve really enjoyed the Jeep JK, but confident the 4Runner is better suited for our needs. Only time will tell. Thank you all for...

    Sounds like good advice and the direction we are heading. My biggest concern, off-road capability, has been addressed and won’t be an issue. It will be fun trying something new and, as you point out, I could probably get out of it without losing too much if we don’t like it.

    I appreciate the follow up and wife’s input. I was discussing the sun roof with my wife earlier today. Lol!

    We live outside of Dillon. Spend most of our time in the Pioneers, Ruby’s, Gravellys, Horse Prarie / Medicine Lodge, etc. I’ve got all three of the Worthy’s books, but haven’t had the pleasure of meeting them. We’re beginning to explore the Bitteroot with friends that live in...

    Thanks, 6’ even, so should be ok.

    Thanks! Good to hear about your experience with a stock 4Runner ORP, as well as confirming my understanding about lifting with KDSS.

    I think it was a bit of both. Perhaps a bit too much enthusiasm and not enough experience from our friend in the PW. Lol!

    Thanks for the input. Looks like 2 great rigs. I’m really torn, since I love the Jeep, but want something a bit more comfortable for my wife on longer road trips. I look forward to driving a JLUR to see how it compares to my lifted JK.
