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

What do ya’ll mean exactly? LOL

 

Installed a new gas pedal today. The old one stops working when it's well below freezing.

 

Got a TPWS warning light and error at around 3630 miles as a Christmas present.
Checked all tires and the spare. They were around 25 psi, probably from the drop in temperature, so I bumped them up.
Still didn't resolve the issue.
Dealer replaced driver rear battery on the tire pressure sensor today under warranty of course.
Seems strange for a new 2024 vehicle.

 

Seems to be the case

side note:
I’ve had my suspicions….

 

Wait, wait, wait, wait....... You let your WIFE drive your 4Runner? Dude, that's grounds to revoke your man-card.

 

Well it is her daily driver. I daily the Tacoma, like a man.

 

Yes, "Do no rely on this system" That's all I need to see and I would check it myself with a proper air gauge.

 

I’m still not following

 

Haha I dunno man…from your original post-

Plus FadeToBlack…

I was gonna say something shadie or what not but then @playdixie n @Nick B jumped on it lol

it’s like the Wild West!

 

Finally got a chance to detail the interior and exterior. Did a little paint correction and added some molle storage bags as well.

Also grilled some steaks. Happy new year gents!

 

Today I found a set of black roof rails on fb marketplace for cheap so I went and bought them and swapped them with my silver set. Much cleaner look!

 

Mind me asking how much?
Feel free to PM me if you don’t feel comfortable saying it here

only ask cause I STILL need to sell abuncha stuff from stock to aftermarket

seeing what was a reasonable price

 

I got the rails and cross bars for $40. I was just going to paint mine but I figured for that price, factoring in the paint or plasti dip costs/prep/time/etc. it’s worth just buying the set end swapping them.

 

@Jtexans4 OhWord

 

I need to do this too. Anyone have black rails for sale?

 

Happy New Year T4R family

 

Finished the DIY roof net in the trunk. It's a combination of a conventional luggage net and a couple of tension straps. The idea for the attachments to the C and D pillars comes from raingler.com

 

I picked up the roof rack yesterday and installed it. I can confirm that the rack is identical to the rack available from Yakima directly. Saved myself $125!

Also, I’m in the market for predator steps if anyone in the Atlanta area doesn’t want theirs anymore.

 

I polluted the atmosphere by driving to the liquor store for some New Years cheer.

 

Good deal, I to am in the market for some OEM predator steps. Lower Michigan, need help getting to the roof
That’s great you got the rack you wanted and saved some serious money

 

I fixed the scratch/small dent on my truck. Now you can hardly see it at all! I already told the insurance company I won't be getting it fixed (They declared the accident 50/50).

A picture from a few feet away

Before/After:

 

Looks totaled.

 

Did you end up getting the part # PT970-60200?

 

Looks a bit better. I’d recommend looking into getting a sheet of this to cover the blemish, you won’t be disappointed. You can buy a sheet and cut to fit. I used this product for my wife’s Lexus when the rear bumper was brushed by an idiot in a parking lot just a few weeks from new. Applied over 6-years ago and it still looks as good as it did when it was originally applied. That’s after being exposed to the punishing Hawaii sun, salt air and an automatic car wash every 2-3 weeks.

How much for the radio?

 

Returned home from a 2100 mile round trip. I’ll never road trip this vehicle again. Uncomfortable, nowhere near enough storage, can’t go over 75 without it feeling like it’s out of control. Will likely trade or sell outright very soon.

 

I’ve done a couple long range trips in mine, one was with barely any gear packed and another fully loaded with gear. Traveling speed limits up to 80 MPH and at no time was the ride squirrelly or uncomfortable. One has to wonder how your rig is setup, what kind of tires you’re running (psi), suspension (factory Fox or upgraded), checked your alignment?…details please. I don’t like hearing someone not happy with a T4R!

 

You should replace it with a Honda Odyssey.
