Winter is coming early this year. :)

Took the pups and went to one of our favorite back country spots to meet some friends and enjoy time around the fire. Had a wee bit of snow that we woke up to for the hike out. At least 7" and still coming down when I hiked out. 4-Runner is Awesome never once did I feel unsafe driving down the side of the mountain on clay with over 1/2 foot of fresh wet snow on top of it at very steep grades.

Well.... It dropped under 90 degrees today here in south Texas. Of course it took until 7 PM to do so. Looking forward to our annual 4 days of winter! Probably not all in a row, though. (And by winter I mean when the temperature drops under 50 degrees....) 😂

It is, I brought it in from Japan for a friend of mine. I have a business bringing in specific vehicles from Japan and setting them up for off-road use for customers across Canada.

Glad you are enjoying it and glad your runner handles it well. What tires do you have? I live in upstate NY and love winter, when we get snow. Two winters previous to last we had temps below zero and many storms that dropped several feet of snow. I backcountry ski and snowshoe in the mountains which is one of the reasons I bought my runner. Last winter it was 40ish and rainy. It sucked! lol I hope it is cold as (hell?) this year and we get hammered with white stuff. I hope my stock Nitto AT's will do the job as well.
