Lets say a time traveler from the year 2006 arrived in 2003. The time traveler stayed in the past for 4 years. After 4 years it is 2007 would the time traveler still be from the future even though the time traveler only made one trip to the past and zero trips to the future?

he would be from the future but he would also be from the past and the present,
he would be from the future as he was in the first place but lived in the present for four years but in 2007 he travelled to the past from 2006 so he owuld be from the past.

The only way one can travel in the past is thru the hard drive in the Brain. Basically in the physical sense we can only travel in the present. There is basically no way to travel in the Future.
The reason is by definition of TIME. We dont know when a cake is baked until its baking time is over. We look at the cake in the present and say its baked.
If the Cake is burned we cannot go back in time physically and undo the Process.
We cannot start baking a cake in the oven ,then move with the oven at the speed of light in space; then come back to Earth and see your husband as a very vely old man,and when you open the oven the cake has not baked yet.
This is reality. Its very vely simple.

No one can't travel through time. The answer I will give you is that the traveler will stay at 2007 as he had been befor coming to 2003.

You have a fertile imagination, my friend.
If four years passed, it would be the year 2007 for the time traveler, but it would be 2011 for the present time. This is an Einsteinian enigma that can only be theorized and answered based on the theories of relativity. Relatively speaking, this time traveler could not catch up to the present unless he returned back to the four years ahead he lost in traveling to the past.
If you like scenarios like this, you should read Kurt Vonnegut's books, as they dipict a lot of time travel. Slaughterhouse Five, Sirens of Titan and Timequake are good examples.

He'd only be considered "from the future" until he relived the date in 2006 that he left in the first place (say, for sake of argument, 10:00 am, June 1.) From 10:01am onward he'd be living in the present, just like all the rest of us.

Another example of why travel back to a physical past can't happen. In your scenario imagine that the time traveller met himself in 2003 and killed himself.

In this case you would need the half-pluperfect inverted tense to describe where he might have been come-to'ing and/or wherein he mayn't be final-go'ing

Well, since this is a FICTIONAL situation, then complete the fiction any way you want!

YEA I THINK HE WOULD BE BECAUSE HE WAS IN THE PAST.
