Well, I drove my wife's car for a bit, since it's been rainy lately, but I seemed to have lucked my way out of the issue. When I went back to it, for some reason the battery had died. Likely from me fiddling with the window without actually starting it. After we jumped me back off, I gave it a...

Thank you for the link. I (and I assume every one else) have a panel next to my strap, but it just leads to that membrane. Didn't know what to do with that, so I put it on hold for that moment. But now that I see how to take it off, hopefully I can get it going this weekend. A window that wont...

I'm not sure. I tried using silicone lube last night and didn't get much change. I got maybe another inch out of it and it repeats the whole rolling back down thing. I did take the bottom seal off and had no effect, but that is just the brushes part, really.

Have to second the love of the Pizza Planet truck. That is awesome. I have only seen a few green 4th gens in my hunting, so definitely a more unique color.

Went out to the Washington coast for the weekend. First trip in the 4Runner, and I'd call it a success.

Today I finally got my license plates in, which means no stupid piece or paper on the back window! Also gave it a good wash from our weekend trip to the WA coast. First trip a success!

Nah, we'll need tough, reliable vehicles to survive the Mad Max world that would ensue!

WOOOO! Blue Crew! Mine's a 4th, though.

I just got a 4th gen recently, but I love the 3rd gens. When I started looking, I was planning on a 3rd gen.

Seattle here. Just purchased my first 4runner, an 05 SR5
