    Mine has a small blemish as well. I guess most plastic overlays produced in china aren't going to be 100% perfect.

    Its nothing special just a gravel road back to the
    Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education

    there is a loop around the parking lot and building and you can just drive back to the main road. I am just trying to find anything off the asphalt near Philly and this is the first one I came across. Picture below from Google maps.

    I had the Pirelli scorpion all terrain plus tires in stock size installed this morning by discount tire.
    I paid 644 OTD for them.

    Thank you Tory for the feedback. Saved me $1,200.
    I will look into some of the SS3 and SS6 kits.

    Hey Tory,
    Can you elaborate more on Alpha Rex lights please.
    Thanks.

    If you watch the video comparison Tory posted, the Alpharex headlights don't offer much gain in "lighting". In short, they look cool, and that's about it.

    Correct. The lights are dimmer than stock and even the brightest portion of the pattern is several degrees lower than the cutoff. You want the brightest portion of your headlight pattern (the hotspot) at the top of the pattern, so that it can project far into the distance. You want your eyes far down the road at highway speed, and a gentle fill lighting in your foreground for continuity.

    By blowing out the brightest part of the pattern into your foreground, your eyes will focus too close in front of you, and you will not have time to react to things like deer or roadblocks until it is too late.

    Aftermarket headlight manufacturers do not care about this. They want to make a quick buck for selling cool lights, and they don't need safe and legal optics to do so.

    I don’t think that is a defect looks like its raised in the center if you look close at the wheel it’s on both sides.It looks like a defect but it is made that way. i thought the same thing until i looked at real good almost brought it back to the dealer.

    installed a Greenlane Offroad roof rack. install was easy and its well made. I was going to get a sherpa, but the wait was too long. Greenlane is local to me, and had it ready in a week. Very happy so far.

    Looks great! I took advantage of their Boxing Day sale to buy my roof rack at a discount despite not having taken delivery of my 4runner yet. I've sent them several updates saying "hey I'm not ready yet, take care of other customers first" but didn't realize their delivery times had shrunk to a week. Guess it's time to ask them to finally ship mine (particularly since my 4runner is on the boat and nearly here!)

    Similar Gravel roads across the Sheeder-Hall covered bridge east of Pughtown, in Chester County, then along French Creek. Couple miles, nothing technical at all unless an errant tractor trailer driver was following Waze and took a serious wrong turn:

    I like the quiet, no traffic ride on my dual sport for some contemplation on the serious issues in the world.

    Nice motorcycle, looks like fun! I couldn't agree more on the quiet, no traffic ride! Something about the sound of gravel under your tires as you drive through nature is very soothing and helps you forget about the day to day things we stress about that really aren't that important.

    Thanks for the tip, I'll check it out, thanks for sharing!

    thanks! I'm very happy with how it turned out.

    you were certainly thinking ahead! must be excited that your 4runner is almost here.

    I think I just got lucky on timing as they had just finished making a batch of racks, and since I'm local they didn't have to pack it up for shipping. I think they are still quoting 3-4 weeks typically. sounds like its time to have them send you yours!

    Not sure how you get all that from a blurry video. Left sided snorkel…not a 4runner.

    Platform finally finished. I wanted a camping platform to sleep on top of, but my wife didn't like the lack of headroom. So, the platform was raised to allow a separate leveling platform to fit underneath on the cargo floor and still allow plenty of foot room. I get my double-decker storage and she gets her claustrophobia eased. When it comes time to camp, just insert the levelling platform, unlatch the rear turnbuckles and there's plenty of room for the camp mattress. Laptop can sit on the platform for movie nights. Works in theory; looking forward to trying it out soon in reality.

    That front side window is dark. I'd get a ticket in my state. Looks great though.

    I made a choice to tint all the windows. But I chose a tint for the fronts that's lighter than the back. It's dark but when you see it, you don't immediately think it's tinted.

    The Ceramic tint really made a difference. Worth it.
