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

I also do below front seat too.

 

love the lights!

 

White letters in they are nothing but a pain to keep clean and look horrible when dirty not to mention the black rubber is thin on that side that covers the white strip of the lettering...

 

looks good great job.

 

Used it to go get more stuffs for the house. We are selling our house and building. Hopefully Friday we will know where. I am looking at three plots 1st one that I really really want is 35 acres backs right up to a creek and mostly wooded back in there. The next is 27.5 acres smack dab in the middle of no where and no wooded area (my Least favorite) and the next is 24 acres that connects to a farm with lots of moo cows my daughters absolute favorite) and some nice wooded area in the back left corner

 

Also if you happen to have a wife who likes the tires to get up close and personal with curbs, they get ugly pretty quickly.

 

I use a sharpie and it works just as good as tire paint that others say is a must. Clean the whites and sharpie or paint them black. Because our rigs sit high, whites look just as stupid on the inside the tire

 

Cool setup. I am looking at more of a quick release as I only want to put it in during the fall season and for random trips not full time. I might steal some of their ideas but build it myself... more fun to tinker.

I had Grabbers on my '05 Grand Cherokee, whites to the inside. I used tire paint and never had to re coat them in the 15,000 miles that were on them when I traded it in for the Runner. One can is plenty.

$13 Dupli-Color Tire Paint Black, 10 Ounce (TP101)

now you made me question if these is stock or not

 

Got my first oil change done. dealer wants $105+tax;
I was at 2300 miles and i wanted the factory oil out; i went full synthetic and will do 5000-6000 miles intervals as we do a lot of country roads and not much stop and go; using oem filter
It was a total mess as the baby is soiled in rustproof undercoating, but the satisfaction of getting it done myself is worth it

 

Installed Meso V2 Ultimate dome light now I need sunglasses when I open the doors. I had the set (black) in there from my 17 TRDOR but have wanted to it match the headliner.....

 

It's unclear from the the way you worded your post but just in case you didn't know, your truck comes from the factory with full synthetic oil and that's what recommended for use. In fact, 0w20 only comes in synthetic

 

i took my dog to the vet to get fixed and she yakked all over the back seat. spent some time cleaning today :/

 

lol. thanks

 

There is a white plug for power seat. I use power/ground from it. Installation took me 15mins each. Mount led it just stick right below the seat . LED stripe have enuf glue to hold it.


I didnt take any pic, but there is 3 white wires 1 for ignition, 1 for ground . if you have voltage meter you can easy check.

 

Did you need anything else for the OEM LED fogs? Do they flicker any?

 

Not sure what you mean about needing anything else. They are a direct replacement. Same connector and everything. I didn't take off the liner or bumper. I made it work. I may have broken a tab on the fluid guard on the passenger side.
They do not flicker a bit & we love them. Completely different amount of light!

I performed the most expensive mod, the "title acquisition mod" LOL. Paid it off today, finished my 60-month loan in 19 months.

Glad to finally own this thing, and never another car payment again!

Now that I'm done making these giant payments, I'll have a mod budget LOL.

 

I will pay mine off once this thread reach 1000 pages

 

Ordered some center console Molle panels from TSO Tuesday and my wife ordered me some Molle panels from Rago today ..... so I’m gonna have to sell one. She said no way in hell am I putting them in her truck.

 

Only 5 years? These run forever! You're supposed to keep them till they're 15, 20 years old!

Now that I have mine paid off, I'm keeping this thing at least another 10 years. No more putting money into car payments.

 

Just rolled 26K miles on my 2016 which I drove off the lot with 6 miles on it. It'll last a lifetime at this rate.

 

^^I never keep any cars for more than 4 years. Hope I break a record and keep 4runner more than 5.

 

I hope to set a record, longest I ever kept a rig was 22 months. I've owned around 60

 

i am one of those that drives it until it is 200k + or wheels fall off it so about 10 to 12 years, last one was 06 sport 198k traded it in for 18

 

w0w you could have 1mil right now.

 

I'm on my 9th 4R....won't have anything else.

 

Other than routine maintenance I don't think they have been in the shop more than 7 or 8 times for all 9 and more than half was recall items, the other things weren't major.issues.
