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

Am I being too extreme in this social distancing thing??

 

Not at all! That's the best kind of social distancing!

 

Adds 15 HP

 

Nice, I'd forgotten that the new premiums come with keyless start and the rear window button roll-down.

 

Thanks for the tip!

 

Lol, I meant for the undercarriage..wait on the 4runner

 

I changed some settings....

 

Good little gadget to have. If only it disabled the stupid Day time running lights, but there's a mod for that.

 

I love it so far I had "one" thing that bugged the living shit of me was the wiper timing on the rear wipers now fixed!

 

First thing i did was kill all the beeps and flashing lights.

 

Day 2 of shelter in place.
I’ve gotten drunk and had conversations with truck
Also ordered victory ladder after talking a bunch of shit to them

 

I thought I was the only one who talked to my truck...

 

Love the Bose on the slider!

 

I can’t live without the jams

 

Didn't have my cell phone / camera but today I found some MUD!

There's an ATV trail about 5 miles down the road from me. I explored part of it previously but turned back. Took it further today. Went through a couple puddles, did a creek crossing, got to the other side and found MUD. This was the, git your hill billy friends with lifted trucks and mud tires, type of mud!!!

Locked in the rear, clicked A-Trac for the front and sent it. I was literally going sideways through this mud. Made it through 3 big muddy sections and turned back to hit them again! Fun stuff.

Still haven't completed the trail yet. Maybe next week.

4WD, A-Trac and locked rear = TANK.

Looks like fun! Those are Wildpeaks, correct? I'm really thinking about getting a set.

 

Mud is so much fun but what a pain in the dick to clean. I’m still finding shit from weeks after lol

 

So true!

 

That was fun, I could see getting hooked on mudding!

 

Yes Sir - Stock size P-rated. Didn't air down.

The tires look small when dirty.

 

Thanks! Ive heard good things about them.

 

I've had good luck with them. Have them on my Nissan Frontier Pickup as well.

I figure in the next 30k to 40k miles I'll go up a size to LT255/80R17

Love the pizza cutters!

 

I'm getting 285's whenever these KO2's wear out. I'm looking at the Falkens based on a lot of good feedback. It sounds like they're better in rain and snow than the BFG's, so that's a big plus. They don't look like they'd be any good in mud, but I've heard that they are.

 

their constant “ready soon” posts pissed me off lol. Hopefully they’ll actually get them out quick. I’ll move my rotopax from the roof rack and have some extra room up top

 

I only experienced a little bit of snow visiting family up in Traverse City Michigan over Thanksgiving.

Seemed alright but I'm not on my game for snow / ice driving. Took everything slow and had drivers riding my ass while up there.
Got the it off road right after a decent snow fall and had fun.

Grew up in N. Illinois but have been in southern Missouri and fun places like Iraq and Africa for the past 10 years .

No snow to speak of this year in southern MO.

 

How about this level of mud play? My neighbor @ my shop has 2. Both racing fuel & supercharged; one old Chevy body & another tube frame chassis! This is an expensive hobby! Lol
*FYI* skip to 5:00 to see the races.

That's pretty cool 4Runner fun!

I like those Rat Rod mud trucks.

 

Finally got the Cornfed 2/1 lift in and you really should have some help I found out particularly at my age. And then I put the speed parts on the back window! Thanks Glen!

 

The Lexus cabin air filter has a charcoal added filament to help with eliminating odors and contaminates. I changed the cabin air filter right before the City of Houston ordered an official “shelter in-place” mandate, so I haven’t had a chance to notice a difference in odor from my A/C. I think the intent is to do actually that- remove any odors.
