How it is now. I did have a great bikini top on it but everytime I went somewhere it freaking rained on me so I sold it and put the hard top back on. I like it like this better.

Yes I know this isn't the nicest 4runner out there but it's the nicest one I've owned so far.

This is an older pic, all I could find at the moment. It was right after the SAS so it's tall here. I've since pulled leaves and the rest have broken in a bit.
