Check out GXOR on facebook or ih8mud.
Found them and have analysis paralysis I've been reading so much. Since I am mainly going for looks I think I am just going to do the Bilstein lift all the way around.

Without reading any of the other replies you should keep in mind that when you buy a TRD Pro you're paying extra, usually around $10k more, for a special color, a very small lift/different shocks, and the black wheels. The TRD Off Road Premium package offers everything the TRD Pro models do in offroad gadgets, you just can't get the crazy colors.
I would also add that you can buy a SR5 and upgrade to the TRD Pro minus the crawl option (that you really don't need) for around $3500. I put a 3" lift, 33's and new wheels.

So you're saying I should spend that kind of money for a vehicle and not like the way it looks? Some cars look more feminine than others. People want to buy a vehicle that they think looks good.
Do you routinely go car shopping thinking "which one of these will make me look like a shithead?"

Someone figured out how to add it to the gx460 with a pretty simple plug and play. I bet someone in the 4runner world has figured it out

Did you install yourself or have a shop do it? I'm gonna need new suspension eventually and often find myself driving pothole filled roads.
More or less curious as to labor costs to install a 2" ARB lift or something similar

I did it myself with a Rough Country kit. The only thing hard was compressing the springs.
I spent less than the $3500 doing it myself.

Nice setup!
We'll probably be taking a trip out west next summer, pretty pumped about it. Already have a Smittybilt Overlander XL tent, will be ordering an Eibach lift kit soon, and the factory tires are about done with so time to upgrade.
Careful not to roll, baw

I'm not saying you should do anything. It's your money, buy what makes you happy. I just think it's weird people may eliminate an option that checks every box except the looks when the looks are deemed too feminine. Comes across as insecurity to me.

A Toyota vehicle is a fine choice. A Lexus vehicle is a finer choice. Impress men with your Yota, impress women with your Lexus.
Basic features if it says Toyota. The one you really want if you enjoy a nicer vehicle with all the good add ons will say Lexus. YouTube comparisons are available.
I bought an F-150 with plenty of gadgets for slightly less than the GX460 because my wife’s RX350 meets our SUV needs. She wants a GX460 but the back door swings instead of raising.
Edit: Just for grins I watched a video. Lexus still has not put Apple CarPlay in this model. Dealbreaker for me.

BTW, I see as many women driving 4R's as I do men. So there's that.

Just about every terrorist group has a few 4 Runners in their stable. Except the IRA, who prefer Range Rover Sport, Antifa who drive Prius and BLM who drive Dodge Challengers.

Fair enough. Can you leave now? The men are talking about trucks here.
Feel free to make your own thread about your vulva shaped car if you like.

Of any vehicle you could possibly buy today, I'd bet the 4-runner is the most likely vehicle you could keep running for 25 years with reasonable maintenance and repairs.
It is old school--damn near ancient--in all the right ways.

Ok? I see women driving F150s and Silverados. Your point?

Well you did ask if anyone here drives a 4Runner, and I drive a 4Runner so I entered the thread.
