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

Plug n play? I need to get one for the wife's 21' now that the weather is getting cooler so i gotta figure out which kit i want to go with.

 

Yes. 100% plug and play. No cutting, no splicing. Works with her factory key fob. Press lock 3 times and it starts.

 

Awesome, that's what I'm after and to work with the factory fob. Looks like mama getting an early xmas gift.

 

Welcome back! Did you make out well on the resale or trade-in of the Outback?

 

Yes the Nautical Blue shows dirt and scratches like a black but man when it's clean it pops!

 

paid my city $1007.05 property taxes for the joy of owning my 4runner...gotta love highway robbery.

Also ordered a set of mirrors signals from midatlanticoffroading, someone mentioned them in the black friday thread.

 

does it shut off when the door opens? a lot I looked at has the security feature that I dislike..

 

I was just quoted $320+tax for a Viper system installed. Is it worth the savings to do it myself or just let them do since they warranty their work?

 

Hand washed and hand dried the 2018. My son has my 2011 for a couple days, couldn't wash that one.

 

About $2K more than I paid for it.

 

It does shut off when you open the doors. With the push to start models its unavoidable.

 

I paid $240 for my unit. Took 2 hours to install but I took my time.

 

Do you fold your mirrors in before entering? No hand washing here during the winter. Thx!

 

Thx. I avoid the Swirl-a-Matic ones. So the touch free has those robotic arms flying and spinning all over the place.

 

Jumped to 295s. Yokohama geolander G003 M/T. With spidertraxx spacers, my effective offset sits at -43.75 lol. Got a bunch of trimming to do

 

those tires look great.

 

Lol, I think the angle of the pic makes it look closer to the top of the fender than it is. I have pretty good room lift wise, but I got a lot of trimming and banging to do

 

That is a great looking LR!

 

Aggressive AF! I wish my wife would let me do that to hers

Welcome back.
What took so long?

 

Ditch lights in! Thanks Cali Raised!!! New shift knob thanks to Ajt designs!

 

I remember hearing the same concern, maybe 15 years or so ago, about eco cars shutting off at stoplights then restarting. I think VW was one of the first. Their solution was to use extra heavy duty starters to take all that abuse. And with Toyota hybrids they do the same thing. Gotta believe they have the recipe correct after all this time. But Kia? Who knows.

 

I, too, took an Outback detour between 4Runners. The "iPad" in the center stack malfunctioned on an almost daily basis, and by the end I was ready to drive it into a creek.

 

I think I will just let someone else install it.

 

Yeah there were all kinds of quirky issues with it. I was ready to punch a hole in the iPad. That will be my last Subaru.

 

Ha!! I was waiting specifically for your response.

 

Maybe I’m missing something, but won’t the tab over the end cut into the rope?

 

Bought the rubber hitch receiver plug. Not sure why these don’t come standard?

 

My 2004 came with one but I had to buy one for my 2017. Keep in mind that you need to make sure it fits tight or you will be buying another one

 

Yeah, it’s not super tight but it only cost like $8 or $9. If I lose it no big deal.

Never had any problems with the one on my 2001 4Runner.
