    Candles for heating while sleeping inside?

    This seems pretty dangerous. Personally not a fan of open flames in the vehicle. I'd just run an electric blanket or toss in a few hand warmers in my sleeping bag if its too cold. Or layer up.

    Electrical Gremlins

    When I replaced the battery, the rear wiper issue seems to have gone away, it's the other items that have popped up now haha. Electrical issues are the worst, they seem to be so much tougher to pinpoint.

    Electrical Gremlins

    Wondering if anyone has any suggestions based on this fun story. 1. Rear wiper would intermittently turn on for no reason (even when the keys are out). 2. The AC system would stay on even after taking the keys out. You can hear the blower motor whirring and the AC control lights would stay on...

    Cali Raised LED 2003-2009 TOYOTA 4RUNNER Rock Sliders

    Good looking sliders. Based in Ft. Worth, so local for me too. Wish I had seen these this summer before buying a set from RSG. Would have totally bought them. Looks like you got a bunch of other toys too, so I may be doing some shopping!

    What Upper Control Arms you running?

    Total Chaos UCA's. So far so good...sometimes I get a little squeaking, but then I spray them with some dry lube and the squeak is gone.

    Tall people sleeping in the back of a 4th Gen?

    I just came back from a road trip where I did some car camping in my 4R- I'm 6'1'' and just barely fit when laying completely flat. My set up was folding down the rear seats flat where I then put down a sleeping mat and sleeping bag. I pushed the front passenger seat up a bit to gain a little...

    Cant figure out my steering wheel shaking

    I had a very similar wobble at the same speeds, it would also go away if you went past 60mph. I recently got my brakes replaced- pads, rotors, calipers. That reduced the wobble some but I didn't notice it completely going away until I got new tires (old ones were chopped so im sure it didn't...

    What did you drive before your 4Runner

    2015 Porsche Cayman S- I still have it, I just wanted something to go camping in as well...also it's nice to drive the t4r when the weather is absolutely horrible outside.

    After Market Blind Spot Detection

    How do you have the side mirrors set up? If they're angled wide enough, you should be able to see anything near/behind you...I do admit that sometimes in the rain, it would be nice to have assistance because when those side mirrors collect a ton of rain, it's a little difficult to see out of them.

    PLEASE HELP!!! Brake/traction/&ABS lights on

    First things first- get the error codes read. That can be done at any autozone or auto parts store for free (some mechanics may charge so it's just easier at autozone). That'll give you an idea of what you're dealing it. Then go from there.

    Front bumper skin accident repair

    You sure showed that yellow marker what's up! In all seriousness, that is a pretty awesome repair!

    Gas tank top off amount?

    Manual says 23.3 completely dry (so my guess is 20-21gal for a fill up from E). I don't like to test it out- I fill up when there's a quarter tank left. The T4R is a little too thirsty to be risking it haha.
