    Apparently, we like the seats

    I am 5'8" and they fit me great. The '14 is much better than the '12 and now has both heating and cooling.

    Cleaning Your Car

    Once I tried the waterless wash-n-polish and I have been hooked ever since. I am pretty lazy and will not wash, dry, wax, and buff. Now I just spray, wipe, and buff. I have never had an issue with scratches. The key is to lubrication and a cool dry surface. The more soil and dirt, the more you...

    5th Gen T4R Picture Gallery

    New 2014 T4R 4x4 Limited Traded the 2012 Magnetic Grey in for this 2014 Blizzard White and love it. Another blank canvas. Biggest improvement? For us in Florida anyways is the addition of cooling to the front seats.

    Dual Battery Tray Options

    VERY NICE! Now that is what I would expect a $200+ battery tray to look like. Whenever you decide you want to make another one put me down for one. Just give me a heads up so I came pull the bracket off and send to you as I work out of the country everyother month.

    Dinoc woodgrain dash attempt

    You also have to think about the winters eh. Calgary gets cold. Like colder outside then most people's freezers. Not to sure a film or any peel and stick product will hold up to sub zero temps in the winter. I have a Limited and the dark burl will look good in it. With the other models I think...

    Dinoc woodgrain dash attempt

    That is actually an old picture. I now have two new switch housings installed on the brake and clutch fluid reservoirs. And of course the same paint scheme. Each of the switch housings have three switches. So now I can light 'er up like a Mardi Gras parade float haha. I could go on but that is...

    Dinoc woodgrain dash attempt

    I would suggest that you buy the parts that you want done and have them painted the way you want. I had my dash and various other parts done this way by Specialty Graphix in Florida. They can do just about anything you want as long as the part can be dipped in water. I have seen Real Tree camo...

    **Group Buy: Gobi Racks and accessories**

    Can the sunroof be used with the panels in place or do they need to be removed before the sunroof is placed in the vent position?

    Oil Change 5th Gen: How To- LOTS of PICS!

    I guess I am missing something. My first service at 5,000 miles only consisted of a fluid check and tire rotation. Is it a dealer dependent thing?

    Oil Change 5th Gen: How To- LOTS of PICS!

    I did the same thing. I changed mine at 2100 miles and put Castrol Edge 0W-20. I have also attached the oil sample report from the "break-in" oil and of course the wear metals are high but at least I feel better knowing that the contaminates have been removed. I am sure you can run it 10k before...

    Blackstone oil report

    2000 Mile Oil Change Results Since the 4Runner was new I decided to change the oil at 2000 miles and will change again at 5000 miles. The first 5000 miles will be where most of the wear occurs. After the 5000 mile oil change I will change again at 10,000 and see how it looks. As you can see...
