Clear your call history
01:58
He checked the fucking highway cam
02:00
Oh boy
02:00
Just tell him you’re helping a friend find a car
02:00
Home
02:12
Is he upset?
02:17
you should probably put a password on your Telegram
02:18
I'm a good liar.
02:21
Telegram is in the secure folder of my phone. So it's already locked by biometrics

02:29
So turns out he traced my phone, and the car, which I didn't know was possible. And then using that info, found me on the highway camera
03:14
I think this one is worth a look, I know it's green but it looks well cared for and has had maintenance. I'd say it's only worth 10 ish tho not 12
03:35
Mmmm
03:45
He must have installed something on it
03:45
The way I worded that was ambiguous. He has my location through my phone. I didn't know he could track the car.
03:51
Does it have on star or something?
03:53
Through the app apparently. I didn't know that was a thing
03:55
Fantastic, good to know turning off my location is useless as long as I'm driving the fucking tracker 🤣
03:58
Cannot wait to have my 20 year old vehicle back.

He started the same conversation again tonight.
04:01
He caught me straight up lying so like I get him being upset. But it devolved into the same conversation. He's basically frustrated I haven't forgiven him and gone right back to normal. He says I'm different since "you started talking to your online friends"
04:03
Maybe just tell him your done and been talking to another guy?
04:03
Hmmm I definitely thought about it.
04:07
He keeps asking me if there's anything I want to tell him, like making it seem like he already knows something and just wants me to admit it. But he's got nothing, I'm pretty careful. I don't really want to hurt him like that if it's not necessary
04:09
Hmmm
04:09
You could just say this is a boundary for you and stop tracking you. Or you are done and not going to explain yourself
04:10
I basically told him I'm different because I've snapped and I don't really want to spend a ton of time with him right now because I'm struggling. And that I understand that he wants to make sure that I'm ok. But when I say I'm ok he needs to believe it and leave me alone
04:11
Sorry typical guy trying to fix it.
04:12
As long as you know who you belong to.
04:12
I belong to you, Daddy. 😘
04:14

04:15
So basically he saw me at the junction on the camera. Tried to call me, I declined the call. Texted "what's up" he said "just wanted to talk to you" and I said "I'll see you soon, I'm getting close to the junction" and he said "dude don't lie to me you've been at the junction for over an hour".
04:16
And I was thinking "ok well I just won't park near the camera and I'll turn my phone location off" so I'm glad he told me the car basically has a built in LoJack.
04:18
Made me a little paranoid NGL. I'm going through my phone to make sure he hasn't put anything on here
04:25
Maybe he has an airtag
04:27
You could see which apps were most recently installed.
04:27
It’s android right?
04:27
Anyway I have lots of experience with all that. Let me know if you need help.
04:28
With what exactly? Lol
04:28
Yes
04:30
Ive checked that, also the recent files on my device, and I've changed the settings so that nothing can be installed without my password, only apps from authorized sources, and blocked commands from USB cables.
04:31
And I'm changing the pin on my secure folder. Got a suggestion that's 6 digits? Anything I think of, he could guess
04:31
If it’s a newer car they have gps
04:31
Oh I'm working on my phone rn. I don't think there's much I can do about the car
04:31
Phone is all clear. And he won't be able to install anything on it
04:46
Just getting ready for bed. It was really good to talk to you today 😊 Goodnight, Daddy. Hope you sleep well 😘
04:52
Goodnight beautiful. Dream of me.
05:04
Good morning, Daddy. :)
14:01
Good morning. How are you?
14:04
I'm good. Just leaving for work. How are you? Sleep better last night?
14:06
No horrible. 😆
14:07
Oh no :(
14:08
I just finished Physical therapy. 😮‍💨
14:08
I am barely awake lol
14:08
The weather has been really grey and stormy. Makes me tired even though I slept ok
14:09
I need to get my shit together.
14:10
In what way?
14:10
Sleep
14:10
Working on my wife’s firm
14:11
I find when I don't sleep well my whole life falls apart
14:11
Yeah it’s supposed to be my 1 goal
14:11
Hmm. What makes you not sleep well, is it like insomnia or overactive thinking or what
14:13
Just driving to work. If you wanna call I'll be in reception in 10 mins :p
14:13
Or this
14:14
About to uber home.
14:16
I can barely keep my eyes open
14:16
11 am is couples therapy

Vehicle Evaluation: 2001 Toyota 4Runner SR5 (Turbo Build)

Listing: $21,000 · Conroe, TX · Listed 3 days ago · Seller: Jean Pierre (2nd owner)

Overview

A 2001 4Runner SR5 with a 5VZ-FE 3.4L V6, 5-speed manual, 4x4 with multimode transfer case and center locker. ~212,000 miles on the chassis; the seller states the build/refresh has under 10,000 miles on it. Extensively modified: turbocharged ~390whp on E85, full suspension build, off-road armor, race audio, and a long list of new OEM supporting components. Wrapped slate grey over the original Desert Dune; clean CarFax, no accidents, clean title in hand.

Seller’s Claims (as written, unverified)

• “I was a master toyota tech for long time and everything on this truck was done w knowledge and passion.” — This is a self-claim about his own background, not third-party verified. The quality of the parts list lends it some credibility, but treat it as a claim to confirm, not a fact.
• Engine refreshed with crank/rod bearings, new rings, all gaskets and seals, no oil leaks.
• Build has <10k miles on it.
• “No accidents, clean carfax,” “frame fairly clean overall,” “clean title on hand.”
• “It’s not 100% perfect but it’s close.”
• Reason for selling: “time to move on and build something different.”

Strengths

Build quality

• Quality, name-brand components throughout: Garrett GTX3076R turbo, Turbosmart wastegate, Aeromotive FPR, AEM water/meth and gauges, MaxxECU standalone, OME springs, SPC upper control arms, Magnofab armor, KMC wheels. Not budget parts.
• Genuine internal engine work (bearings, rings, full gasket/seal job) — not just bolt-ons.
• Thorough, transparent documentation; includes spare parts, oil, and coolant.

Supporting maintenance (new parts reduce near-term failures)

• Water pump, timing belt kit, radiator, fan clutch, high-output alternator, full A/C system (compressor, dryer, evaporator, expansion valve, lines), brakes (Tundra big-brake front), engine/trans mounts, rear diff seals/bearings.

Off-road capability — 8.5–9/10

• Locked 2.5 coilovers, OME rear springs, polyurethane bushings throughout, SPC uppers, high-clearance CV joints, 35” Yokohama mud tires, multimode transfer case with center locker, full armor (front + swing-out rear bumpers, sliders), 9k Westin winch.
• A properly capable trail rig. Caveat: capability you’ve indicated you won’t use.

Appearance

• Strong presence — lifted, blacked-out, slate grey gloss wrap, bumpers, light bars. Photogenic and aggressive.

Title/history

• Clean title, clean CarFax, no accidents — passes the screen that killed the salvage FJ.

Weaknesses & Risks

Price — overpriced by ~$5,000–7,000

• Base vehicle (2001 4Runner, 212k mi, clean title): ~$7,000–9,000 stock.
• Mods add transferable value at a steep discount (~25–35¢ on the dollar used/installed), not their build cost.
• Realistic market value: $14,000–16,000.

Drivetrain/usability

• Manual transmission: difficult Houston daily driver; daughters cannot drive it.
• Turbo + MaxxECU standalone + E85: most complex/maintenance-intensive setup reviewed. Requires a specialist shop, not a general mechanic.

E85 fuel reality

• Tuned around ethanol for knock resistance at 16psi. Worse fuel economy; limited station availability; no power or efficiency benefit on regular gas — and high-boost on pump gas without a proper map risks engine damage.

Unfinished body

• Wrap over bare primer (“ready for paint”), wrap scratches, tailgate dent. Budget $2,000–4,000 for paint.

Interior

• 24-year-old SR5: no leather, no luxury, race-oriented audio and gauges. Fails the “understated luxury / leather” requirement.

High stress + high miles

• 212k-mile chassis now living behind ~390whp. Clutch, axles, transfer case, and driveline carry far more load than designed.

Resale

• Tiny buyer pool for a turbo manual E85 4Runner. Expect a significant loss on resale (the same loss the current seller is absorbing).

Reliability Assessment

Mixed. Many wear items are brand new, so a lot won’t fail soon — a real plus.
14:20
But the turbo/E85/standalone layer adds failure points and complexity a stock 4Runner doesn’t have, it’s been driven hard, and it’s not serviceable at a normal shop. Net: less reliable and far less convenient to own than a clean stock 4Runner, despite the new parts.

Fit For Your Stated Needs



|Your requirement |This truck |Verdict |
|----------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------|----------|
|Understated, sexy, not try-hard |Light bars, aux lights, race audio, cut-out exhaust|✗ |
|Reliable, not a headache |Turbo + standalone + E85 + manual |✗ |
|Leather + good A/C |New A/C (✓); cloth race interior (✗) |½ |
|Comfortable for two teen daughters|Manual, lifted on 35s, loud, stiff |✗ |
|Tow capable |Yes |✓ |
|Off-road capable |Excellent |✓ (unused)|
|Budget cushion for repairs |$21k maxes budget, $0 left |✗ |
|Date-car impression |Reads “car guy’s project” |✗ |

Fit verdict: Poor for a daily/date/family vehicle. Excellent for an enthusiast wanting a built, capable trail/show truck — a role you’ve said you don’t need, but have chosen to pursue anyway.

If You Buy It Anyway — Conditions

1. Price: Open at $14,000 cash with inspection. Ceiling $16,500. Do not pay $21,000.
2. Inspection: Pre-purchase inspection by a turbo/standalone-ECU-literate shop (not a general mechanic). ~$200. If the seller refuses, walk.
3. Tune: Confirm who tuned the MaxxECU; request a datalog (AFRs + knock under boost); ask for a conservative/pump-gas backup map.
4. Title: Verify clean title in the seller’s name; VIN match; run your own CarFax.
5. Credentials: Ask where/how long he was a Toyota tech and whether he did all work himself (especially the tune). Specific, comfortable answers = good; vague = caution.
6. Reserve: Keep $3,000–4,000 for paint and inevitable turbo-build issues.
7. Logistics: Locate nearest E85 pumps and a turbo-literate Houston shop before buying; get a modified-vehicle insurance quote.

Bottom Line

A high-quality, genuinely capable, cool-looking build — currently overpriced by $5,000–7,000 and a poor practical fit for a date/kids/daily vehicle. The credentials and master-tech claim are plausible but unverified; the title and history are clean; the off-road capability is real but unused for your purposes. You’ve chosen to pursue it despite the fit, which is legitimate — but only at a fair price ($15–16k or under), with a specialist inspection, and with a repair cushion intact. Buy it knowing exactly what it is. Do not buy it expecting understated, reliable, or comfortable.

All good. Thought I'd offer :p
14:23
Knew it lol
14:24
Have you ever taken vitamin B12 or b complex for energy levels?
14:27
At one point.
14:27
I find it helps a lot. I also take D3 for that but Canadians are deficient. I doubt that's a problem there
14:28
Is that the D vitamins?
14:36
I used to be vitamin D deficient, but I tend so often now I’m guessing that’s not a problem anymore. I probably anemic because I take testosterone and I’m supposed to be donating blood every week or ever how often and when I don’t do that, my blood gets thicker and the iron gets depleted by the testosterone, but when it gets donated in my iron goes up.
14:37
I don't know if you absorb vitamin D from tanning. Because I think it comes from UVB, I'm not sure on that one tbh.
14:42
Do you ever take iron supplements? Cause being anemic definitely will make you tired
14:52
🎵 [Audio]
17:59
I don't know anything about tanning beds. I know that the UV stimulates your body to product vitamin D and that it's important. But I don't know if a tanning bed will provide a sufficient amount of vitamin D or not
18:16
Good girl.
18:22
😘 thinking of you.

Omg lol did I tell you that one of Huey's delusions was that I was poisoning him in his sleep! I am not
