Welcome!
I've always liked the open bed of a truck. 4Runners are alright but nothing beats going to the drive-in and kicking back to a couple of good movies with your woman while laying back in the bed of your 4x4. Open bed trucks IMHO are more versatile, I can put a camper on it and drive cross country with a place to sleep or use it to move & haul stuff. I remember one time I had 6 people shoved in the back in my camper shell, with 4 in the front, had an extended cab. Of course the ones in the back got a little banged up when I took corners. But hey they wanted to go. :laughing:
