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

Taking it in Monday. Other guy's insurance taking care of it

 

Ah ok, gotcha.

 

lol that’s dedication for the black trim !!!!

 

So it looks like ford expedition now.

 

Replaced the interior bulbs with LED’s in my 2015 Limited. There was a bulb for the glove box but after reading about what a hassle it was I decided I really didn’t need to mess with it. Also, who wants the lights on their license plate to be brighter so the plate is more easily seen!

 

Made my final payment for Ruby!!!

 

Congrats!

 

Thanks! Took a minute but survived a divorce a multiple moves to get back on my feet! Now she is mine forever lol

 

Excellent joke
That’s funny you gotta admit Borracho

 

I bet British Columbia - ICBC is still more expensive LOL

 

Took a family photo.

 

family dump run

 

Trying the turndown now--kinda fun but I'll probably switch back to the side exit. I prefer exhausts that are quiet unless you're stepping on it.

 

Have the same "Pistol Grip Hackzall" Just asked my stepson about giving it to him to cut up pallets to burn in their fire p it!! I bought it cause it looked cool But have no real use for it.!

 

Right on, Milwaukee should rename it “Pallet Cutter”, it worked great!

 

Made some Molle baskets to go with the rest of my setup. Testing out the two sizes and different mounting locations.

 

DUDE! This is exactly what I have been looking for and wanting ever since I installed my rear Molle's. If you want to make some cash, I'll buy them off of you. It would be even better if you made like a box. Instead of open slots, make it fully enclosed, with a lid or cap of some kind.

Be a pal, and fabricate that for me. If ya' do, you'll get a forever spot on the Christmas Card list!

 

DM incoming!

 

Thought to share while still unsure of what I am doing, for what reason, where I will end up, how to get there, and work still be done of whatever it ends up being while the 4Runner sits outside topless. Lucky for me, it rarely rains in AZ. I placed the 5gal paint can inside the living space for scale reference. It's a fair enough space as I'm 5'5. This project has not come without plenty of mistakes. Hoping to get it complete within the next 2-3 weeks, followed by a 3-4 month trip across the USA, diagonally, from south of San Diego, CA, USA/MX border to USA/Canada border in Maine, with the intent of visiting Presidental Library's along the route and back. GAIA, for whatever reason, did not display some of the libraries along the route, but I have them plotted as well. Because of this project, I'm putting our Alaska trip on hold for 2025, fingers crossed. Making this trip instead allows me to put the tent frame through plenty of twists and turns on and off the pavement to see if it leaks inside, or breaks during the trip. Not to mention, it will be cheaper to fix things gone bad in the lower 48 than fixing them in Alaska or Canada. Also, visiting the Presidential Library has been a long time waiting.

 

Got this thing mounted today.
Nice product. Not total Guchi iKamper, but well built and good value.

 

Pretty cool.
Ever given any thought or consider a high-mount shelf that would go between the OEM coat hangers in the rear cargo area?
I think that would be cool to have up out of the line of sight when using the rearview mirror. I know it wouldn't have a lot of storage capacity but still a little for small things plus molle attachment underneath would remain.

 

4R fam trip to The Outdoor Experience waterslides

 

Rotated the tires!

 

Got the cubby drawer set from MinWin. Very high quality 3D print. The drawers are magnetic so they don't flop about when things get bumpy.

 

Used tokens I had laying around to wand rinse the Runner after a decent haul yesterday and this morn.
Then a dude smoking a dart in trippy Mad Max truck showed up!

 

How do you like your MT Baja ATZ’s. Probably the way to go in Canada with snow. I really like my MT Baja Boss AT’s in 285 SL. Light and quiet with great off road and highway manners. BTW, that mad max guy is a Canadian Secret Service agent. I keep praying for you guys that Pierre Poilievre pulls it out without getting taken out.

 

For anyone interested in the molle baskets in my previous post they are available here.

Installed some front seat jackers. We'll see tomorrow on the traffic drive if they are as amazing and life changing as everyone claims.
