The 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner was an excellent vehicle off the showroom floor over a decade ago, and Toyota’s reputation for reliability and performance continues to draw the attention of both hardcore off-road enthusiasts and newcomers to the “3rd Gen” platform to this day.

Four Corners 4×4 Returns to Endurance Racing in Agate, CO
Jason Kaminsky and Rick Jenkins returned to the dirt track this past Saturday for a Dirt Riot Endurance Racing event held at Colorado Off Road Extreme near Agate, Colorado.
