After the successful revival of the Land Rover Defender, it's time to open a thread for the next mod in line, the 4Runner!
So, just as the Defender, it started life as an existing game model, with tons of work involved to adapt it to BeamNG and expand its personalization options way beyond what was capable before.
And just as the Defender, that list of features is quite beefy to be fully posted here, I have to say it's not as extensive as the Defender, with 'only' 12 configs, but the 4Runner does have some unique treats, such as actual engine swaps such as the 2GR-FKS 3.5 V6 or the 3UR-FE 5.7 V8 from the Tacoma and Tundra respectively (with actual swap I mean that unlike the Defender, in which the same physical mesh is shared with all engines, when you swap an engine here the whole engine realistically changes to what you just selected, so if you choose the Tundra V8 for example, and open the hood, an actual Tundra V8 will now be there) and of course, brand new features such as Openable Doors, Physical Mirrors and Load Boxes are there too for good measure.
To list a few final features, you can find both the 2019 interior, stock from the reference car, as well as the 2022 MY interior, complete with all the new stuff (gauges, infotainment screen, HVAC controls...) and since it also features all needed parts to turn it into a SR5 model, I decided to drop the 'TRD Pro' from the title since it's not just that since months ago...anyway, and as a final note, and also just like with the Defender, expect almost, if not all, factory colors all the way to 2024, OEM rims, and more!

Hope you enjoy it!
Again, there is a quite a handful of people who put me to shame regarding modding capabilities (even Agent_Y said the 4Runner was quite a mess to work with...) but as long as the mods work fine and people are happy, that's all I need
