New Member - Looking forward to discussing!

I bought a 2014 SR5 with ~125K miles about a 1.5 years ago and have loved it.

Mods:
Before I bought it:

• Side-runner steps
• TRD Decals & a TRD OffRoad badge (I've been too lazy to take it off)
• Raptor lights that are not wired up (I haven't figured out which fuse position to plug into)
• Roof basket
• Rail cross-beams
• Wheel spacers
• Plastidip blackout rear 4Runner badge
• Bumper guard, which actually helped when my wife love-tapped a deer last Fall
• Some ready-to-be-replaced tint

After I bought it:

• LED Interior & head lights
• Center console cover to protect it from my large dog's claws
• Minor paint correction
• Fluidfilm protection for the frame to protect from Midwest
• Lovely carwash swirls in the paint, and spinner fibers in my headlight (I've since canceled my unlimited membership)
• 3rd row seat removal
• Floor/trunk mats

Goals:

• When I got it, I wanted a capable vehicle that would be a fun introduction to DIY mechanical IQ.
• Adventures! One of the first trips my wife and I took as a couple was 4000 miles out West in a 2005 Infiniti G35 Sedan, and this is a huge upgrade. We haven't done too much yet. A trip to St. Augustine where we tailgated on the beach and a Utah, Colorado, AZ trip coming up.
• Would love to join the 500K miles club
• Create a fur-runner limo for my 90lb Golden retriever/baby Bentley

WIP:

• All of the seats are out while I am building a platform and modular camping setup to sleep my wife (6'), myself (5'11"), and Bentley (~3') inside.
• Fast-charging "second battery" setup with Ecoflo Delta 2
• About to go try *another* tire balancing place to eliminate the steering shimmy at 55-60mph

Anyway, thanks for having me on the forum. I've loved using it as a place to read up on other people's projects, and now that I am more actively modifying it, I am excited to use it to document my own!

Welcome and grats on the ride!

Sounds like you are doing some cool stuff. You should make a build thread and/ or post progress pics to the What I Did To My 4runner today thread.

I'm curious about your charge setup and that platform.
