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

Negative, I added the pillar assist grip on the drivers side. The ram arm is connected to the lower arm mount.

I’ve had this mount for a while both on my Tacoma’s and the T4R and so far the phone has had no issues.

 

First time getting the awning out. Dig it

 

I painted my Treaty Oak Offroad recovery points. Yes, they came in a pair. I have two. I just have one in the photo. I'll install them in a few weeks.

 

I just got back to NY from NC after bringing my Willys to my son. 12 hours with only gas a pee stops. I'm pretty beat but the 4Runner did great. I already posted about towing it down there but I don't think I mentioned that I got around 12MPG never going above 60 MPH OK maybe 65 once in a while.
Coming home doing 65 to 75 where kinda legal and a few stints cruising at 80 for a while I got 20.3. Not bad considering I was not driving to get the best mileage. I hate NY but I'm glad to be home. I really need to move to NC myself.

 

I just installed the N-fab Nerf Step this morning. So far, so good, looks like a Predator, but not very low. No mods, except I had to remove a small piece of plastic on the rear end.






This is the plastic I'm talking about, and is held in place by two small screws:





So after installing them, I looked at the box and took a pic of the sticker to post it here, so it's made in china... I thought is was made here...

 

Canada would be CA

 

I hope you're right... can someone chime in to confirm ...

 

Ouch! I have a nice dent just above windshield. I may or may not get it fixed. I'm glad I did the other dings though.

 

Yes you can store other items. I added some rubber to the top so whatever I put on top won't slide around. I mainly put sunscreen and mints.

 

Pretty nice! … Looks like they’ve made some design changes; I own a pair of there old style … Some time in the future I would like to switch them out to some welded on real rock sliders.

 

Ok this is hilarious and I can’t believe it took almost a year to figure this out.

My wife has a 2020 SR5P and she absolutely loves it, one of her biggest complaints was that she was able to lock and unlock her doors from the door handle on her previous cars and on the 4Runner she was only able unlock from the handle but had to either use the fob or the button on the hatch to lock it.

My father just picked up a 2020 Taco TRDOR and I was showing him how to use carplay (he’s 73 and not great with tech) and I noticed on the door handle it had these two little lines, when you touch them the vehicle locks! I kept saying how great that was and wished it was on the 4Runner.

Well...it is and it performs the same. Now my wife is happy and I feel so stupid it took us this long to realize it, even the dealership I picked up the 4Runner from told me there was no way to lock it from the handle.

Thought everyone might like to laugh at my stupidity.

 

Took it off roading for the first time since buying it on Friday. Went up to Chipmunk Road, then through a pretty tight ATV road all the way up to a Cheam Valley viewpoint. It was awesome, lots of rocks and water crossings. Came out with zero trail damage, 11 hours of good times and an awesome memory.

 

Sorry, it’s 2 lines not 3. Don’t mind the dirt, she needs a good wash. If you just place your finger on these two lines for a second or so, the truck will lock. It’s on both the driver and passenger side! Works great.

 

That’s weird, maybe it’s only on the “premium” versions?

 

I think it is all 2020's with the key fob & push button start...??

 

I think it's only on 2020 with push button start. It's the same as my wife's Forester.

 

Did you get any time in the Gladiator? If so, what did you think of it?

 

This is 2020, the year which will be hard to forget. You might have a thing or two on your mind beside the lock on your wife’s truck...

 

Added these bad boys today. Rack was a pretty easy install. Having some trouble with the light wiring right now and ran outta daylight. Hopefully found the fix and should get them working tomorrow AM.

 

yes only on the "premium" and TRD Pro

 

Got this little jerk knocked out today. Sanity restored.

 

How did you route your roof top light wiring?

 

I learned that pressing the up and down arrows on the tailgate of my 2020 will raise and lower the back window

 

you might be able to remote start too if you have smart key

 

Nope, there is no remote start on any 2020 4Runner

 

well my TRD pro must be special then

 

press and hold the lock button on your remote 3 times. On the third push hold it down till it starts. You're welcome.

 

Switched out the rago low profile ditch light mounts for regular height. If you ever get ditch lights, I do not recommend low pro mounts.

 

i dont think my Venture edition has that
