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

While I hate the bugs and humidity, winter makes the subtropical climate almost worth it. Might need a jacket for a couple nights next week.

 

I heard that YEARS ago (and I emphasize "years"). I don't remember where, who, or when, but it's stuck with me for a long time.

 

Satan's sky cocaine hahah never heard that one up here in Canada
That a lot of snow for MS?
Ahh Memphis, my old fav rapper Cashville Southside Memphis Mr Ten a Key

 

Send some to E.Pa.!!!

 

Slightly regret not upgrading to a Taruca/Bushwakka, but the OVS Nomadic is a bargain.

Once the Gobi mounts arrive I'm hoping it will be pretty easy to remove or switch sides.

 

Do not listen to this man.

Love the sky cocaine reference, never heard that before.

 

Got the front windows tinted and a windshield visor.

Got a few more weeks before more Greenlane sliders show up, getting antsy for them.

 

nice. jealous

 

I drove a municipal snowplow for 22 years. We called it "Pennies from Heaven."

 

Is this how all Viper cuts are, or this guy did it differently? Some of the plastic was folded onto the washer fluid.

 

I think they're somewhat all different
Is that your fender liner I'm looking at, when you say melted plastic and washer tank

 

Do you think some more cutting is impossible?

 

The Viper cut is a temporary solution. Eventually I am going all out lol

 

So is your liner stuck to the washer tank or no? Lots of people use heat methods to bend and mold fender liners for clearance and aesthetics.
I did not, I bucked the liner off level with top of the high stage, high clearance cut. Then painted fluid container. That's one option yours. The exposed tanks girly and pink if you don't paint it.
There's even washer tank "skids" which I'm saving for.

 

Yes it is stuck.

 

tank paint blends in now

 

Balls

 

Can't believe I am cutting my nice truck into that direction

 

Sorry, @Stoney Ranger no pennies down here in Mississippi. It's a huge PITA! (And that's coming from a 911 dispatcher.)

 

Lot of snow for MS?

Most def. Usually anything more than a dusting is a lot for Mississippi.

 

I had to go back and find these pics from.Feb 17-19, 2021. It felt like Canada (no offense meant) outside for nearly a week. But it was single digits for a couple of days. At the time I was driving a lifted Tacoma.

And I'm afraid this is what's gonna happen.

Again.

But funny side note: a week later we were in the 60s-70s.

 

From this day forth, you will be known as "Mr. Plow". Or Homer? Your choice!

 

2nd on Mr Plow.

 

You fuggers had to go there, didn't you? I haven't been behind the wheel of a plow in 12 years.

 

For places that aren't used to getting anywhere near that kind of snow, it will bring life to a standstill. Here in SE VA and coastal NC, govt / businesses / people lose their minds when there's a dusting and the roads and yards are completely covered, let alone accumulate several inches...

 

Installed a Pedal Commander, took it out for a short test drive, have it currently set at Sport +2. Increase in throttle response is definitely noticeable, so we'll see how it does when merging onto the freeway, and passing someone (hardly a 4R's strong suit). Also installed the Cali Raised interior LED light bulb kit (map x 2, vanity x 2, dome, rear cargo x 2, license plate x 2, doors x 4, puddle x 2, glove box), heck of a lot brighter, with crisper white light. Only ones left to do are the puddle lights, but I'm saving those for tomorrow. I'm not going to install the glove box bulb, I've read it's VERY difficult to do.

 

installed my sherpa crestone sport rack today. I have been wanting this style roof rack twice as long as I have owned my 4runner. hands down a very well thought out roof rack. I was thinking the sport version might be a cheaper version of it's big brother but there isn't anything cheap or cheezy about the sport version build or material wise...being a super low full length roof rack now I can finally truck my 1970's 17' grumman aluminum canoe or a couple of bundles of 1/2"-3/4" EMT around and not worry!

 

Never heard it called that before.

Here in southern New England, we used to get dumped on every other week. We haven't had that much snow in the last several years though. We get a storm, then the temp spikes and it's all melted within the next day or two. It was actually 60 and sunny today. Strange even for New England weather.
