What have you done to your 5th Gen 4Runner today?

Nothing,
I like it the way it is.

Stop making me spend my money!

 

I only smoke in the morning when she has gone to work out or when she leaves for work. (Part time)

 

She knows.

 

There's a benefit from being a stinking old man at age 71+. Hard to tell what the stink emanates from! So far I haven't gotten busted, but I know the day is coming!

 

She just loves you and wants you to be happy

 

After 45+years of marriage, I sure as hell hope so!

 

Retiring the 4R as a daily driver.

It always bothered me putting ~35 miles everyday on the 4R to commute for work. That's almost 10k miles per year.
While I dont mind putting thousands of miles for road trips, going to the lake, skiing, or even for no real reasons (storm outside, lets go have fun in the mud), I always felt that I was "wasting" the 4R for work commutes. If I planned on keeping it for a few years then get something else then I wouldn't care but I am never selling the 4R, no matter what other vehicle I'll be getting in the future. So I need it to last for at least 40 more years...
Not using it to commute to work is going to help not put useless miles on it.

 

I used to do this with one of my cars. In RI, my city didn't bother too much about it, but a couple of the surrounding cities would. Eventually, I stuck the plate behind an opening in the front valance so the numbers were still visible. Technically not properly mounted, but the cops didn't bother me afterwards.
