Hi all,

I finally received my 2026 4Runner Off-Road premium in Everest from Ed Martin Toyota in Novlesville, IN. I live in Pittsburgh and made the 6.5 hour trek and it was worth it. I had them install the TRD 2.5” lift, Trailhunter wheels, 285/70 R18 Toyo Open Country ATIII Tires, bronze overlay package, Trailerhunter top grille, and the bronze front tow hooks. The TRD skid plate was part of the build and I left that on the order as well. In my eyes, the truck is gorgeous, but I also have some other mods that I am installing and will journal them here on this thread in the coming weeks/months.

So far (day 1), I installed amber overlays for the front foglights, grille camera plug, and Lasfit amber turn signals. I have many more mods that I will be journaling here.

I am coming from a 2022 Porsche Macan GTS which could not be further from a 4Runner. With one of my daughters in college and the other will be next year, I figured a Toyota would be a great vehicle for the next 5-10 years (maybe longer). Since my Porsche was out of warranty, the maintenace and the risk of something happening, kind of gave me the push to go this route. I also own a 1994 Porsche 911 widebody and a 2006 BMW M3 Competition package which will be a great compliment to rugged 4Runner.

Stay tuned...

It's Heritage Blue!

I'm just kidding. This is a gorgeous 911.
Thank you. Closer to Wavemaker, really. It's called Miami Blue. I'll get a picture of the two together in the next couple of days.
