I Spent Over $20,000 in Upgrades on my 4Runner | Build Walk Around 

One of the best looking runners I've seen. Really good job!

The top tents make me wish Toyota could do a "camp" version of the 4 runner that comes with a built in tent/ceiling like camping vans do.

It is such a nice 4runner, but goodness gracious, 20k is unreal !!! My 4runner only has about $2500 in upgrades. Level kit and wheel/tires. As for the body, I actually did my own viper cut mod which came out good. The next thing I want to do is put a metal rear bumper and that's about it for now. That will get me closer to 3k in mods... Lol I don't know how you got to 20k but still, your build is awesome 👏🏽

Sweet. Consider Dyna-matting all 5 doors. That was my first mod (along with changing out the sound system). I actually did 2 layers of it. Cuts down bigly on road noise and improved the audio quality. Nice truck lady.

What an awesome build and I’m slowly getting mine with the ladder rack for the back.

Bottomline, she loves 4runner because she love her dog. 🙌🏻

Great video and well edited. I like your first discussion on having a dog and how it impacted your exploration adventures. I too want a camping buddy (dog) but not sure I want to give up that flexibility to go anywhere at anytime. Thanks!

Beautiful truck, beautiful woman, beautiful dog.

Beautiful Tunner you have there. I am in over $20k in upgrades on mine too. It all happened so fast lol.

Nice! I’ve got the 4Runner addiction bad. What a wonderful life it would be traveling and camping! We off grid camp a lot but my entire set up is in a large Alice pack. You have a great companion! Enjoy!

Just want to say nice looking 4Runner and you're doing what you love too!

My most expensive mod for my 2019 4Runner TRD Off Road is the Magnuson supercharger. That was $7k and I got a lot more out of my build, spending close to as much, including the ss. $20k in mods, just on the things she mentioned is just money not well spent. You don't need those expensive Fox Shocks, not for overlanding. I have a Magnuson Supercharger (my favorite mod), King Shocks, Victory 4x4 Blitz slim front Winch Bumper and Warn winch, 35" KM3s given to me by my brother's shop (I swap based on needs), No RTT so have my entire roof back as storage. Lots of storage!😁 I did a rear seat delete in 2021, so have tons of interior space. To sleep, I use an Australian double sized swag tent on a cot that elevates it off the ground. I also purchased DeepSleep's 4Runner solo self inflating air mattress with memory foam, that perfectly contours the side of the back of my 4Runner, leaving tons of space, with seats folded down, but i did a rear seat delete, so have tons more space. It is a great emergency option for when weather is bad, or Grizzlies are poking around. When not in use and deflated, it goes in an easy to store bag. I have an effective dual battery, inverter setup, plus I bought a lithium ion battery generator (a good one), that can be charged while I drive, or via solar panels that came with it. It improved my night time/meal time experience 150%! It runs everything I use at night, all night (laptop, fans, charging phone, USB lights, heated blanket etc etc),. Freeing my main power up, so I never have to do the wake up power level check, anymore. I love it! Oh and I have an auxiliary long range fuel tank too, doubling my range. If I didn't have the ss, I still have a far more superior build, for less.. With double your fuel range, lots of storage now, having my roof back as storage, so my build can sustain me for A LOT longer, and I have all the power i need etc. I know this post was long, but I just wanted to point out to potential overlanding newcomers that her build is a huge waste of $20k. Also, you can find excellent condition gear second hand, including offroad bumpers, or anything else you need. There is soo much of it that great deals come easy!

Wow, you are ready for anything in that setup, love your 4runner, looks amazing.

I reheated mine to 4.88’s and it’s perfect, drives like stock or maybe even a little better and I can do 90 all day long uphill if needed. You’ll love the upgrade

best runner i've ever seen!!!!!!!

I stopped at window and dog….🎉. I did the same thing with my first gen, (I’ve owned 4). My current pup hasn’t really warmed up to the idea, but my original golden loved it…plus the side window. 🐕👍🤪🇨🇦 Any vid with…”and my dog”.

Tough and beautiful. Bad Ass Rig!!!

the front mods are dooope!

Daddy's money

Awesome truck. Even nicer outdoor lifestyle. You go girl!!!

Beautiful build. I love that C4 swing out, that may be my favorite part.

If you are going to go all in with lots of mods and add ons a 4Runner then Magnuson Supercharger is a must. Or else you a very heavy lifted slug that can barely get out of its own way.

너무 멋졌어 한국에서 이런 동영상을 보고 너무 재밌게 봤습니다 화이팅 하세요

I love this 4RUNNER. This ones done right. If you're always exploring than how many miles are on that nice rig?

Is it wrapped?

Great looking 4runner

so sick!

Great video

I can imagine the smell of that car

4RUNNER is dope, and I fn love the dog!

Nice. I have a 2020 4runner ORP. Already lifted, bigger tires and rock sliders from dealership before it was put on lot. Now I only want amber fog lights, and extra cans of gas. My roof I want to put solar up there.

killin it! nicely done

I have a 2018 runner too and I just love this!! she's a beauty 🙂

Nice 4runner. Very well done.

Now I want a 4Runner

Just my suspension on the front end was $20k 😅. But I like to boogie 🎉

Great video & well spoken owner, keep em coming.

DOPESHOW. Well done lady.

great entertainment video, I have a 03 v8 4runner completely stock now with 29K miles on it and about 8K miles off road. My tires are the original Dunlop Grandtrack. still on. Newer got stuck or in trouble off road Good sells women hats to you. To people that wAtch you they need nothing you advertise ability and experience is all, rest is money wasted.

Boom! Nicely done

Beautiful pooch, nice build on your truck.

yea, i have ya beat by a lot.

what size lift

Nice looking 4 runner

Nice video, thank you for sharing. More videos please.

20k into it, is that the way to go you think instead of going Pro? Is the warranty effected?

You did WHAT?!

You go girl!😊

Bad to the bone 🦴!!! Sick ass rig!!!!!

Chick loves her Dog ....

Such an amazing build

Nice dog smell in the car

I love that fact that your runner is actually dirty!! Yes!!

What are your MPG with all that weight?

Great vehicle Claudia thanks for sharing I own a 2019 4Runner trd off road premium and its also my 2nd runner but yours look awesome

What a car, what a girl, what a doggy

Great looking SUV 😎

Is the horizontal bar across the front grill that says TOYOTA stock? I think I've seen it on some brand new models, I love that. Or is that an upgrade?

Man I'm working on a Ford Ranger currently and I WISH that there was an option to replace the tailgate with a swingout tailgate.

Great looking 4runner. Claudia is a definite badass!

Love it and love my to do that to my 2021 runner

What roof rack was this

You are living the dream!

Looks awesome for a overland vehicle. As a Hardcore off-road to hear that price tag. I’ve done dual T case, 1 tons swap, coil overs, 1.25 Heims link, locker gearing, power assist or hydraulic steering. Still sexy AF though

You are very good with money 😂

can i get the link for the light bar please

Lovely car . I have same car since 2006

And dad's money 🤣

Great job on that... Wow.. let me know if you sell😊

Did you get your dog up in the tent?😮

Great car. Nice vid. Can we have more vids bout this magnificent German shedder?

NICE

The best mod was the Doggy

this should be excellent for overlanding... great video

What's this thing get, 12mpg? Beautiful 4runner

Dope build. I like the kayak part, it’s my therapy but escaping from the crowds with the fam is also necessary 🤙🏽

Wow !!! Love it …🌸🌸🌸

I have the same suspension Fox 2.5 DSC but I think I was sold some stuff rear coil springs. Everyone I know that has this suspension lives it but I’m not 100% satisfied. Anyone know of good stock replacement coils? I don’t have any added weight.

Love this build.

great content! nicely done!

My rig is also made around my furrkids :)

Do you do snow camping. Its snow time here in Colorado..

Nice build. Mine is similar but with an Alu Cab RTT. What gear ratio are you going to for the extra weight?

i want one of these so bad lol

Where did you get most of the 4runner work done?

I freakin love it!!!!

Is that an Akita?

Rad dog!

interesting people say pets look like the owner, both are beautiful though :)

How are your $20K upgrades impacting the weight and handling of the vehicle? I had $25K upgrades to my FJ Cruiser (including super charger) and I felt it was too heavy and under power.

Now how much was the labor?

I love ur 4runer ❤❤

“20k”, lol I spent that the first weekend I owned my 4Runner. Mistakes we’re made.

@yotaforce what mods did you start first?

Awesome work ! Great ! Beautiful look ! Super modification

Very Nice and good Job man

Nice rig

how are you carrying your bike?

My dream car❤

Same year same model 👍 different color. 👍
