I just installed a Kenwood in my 2020 Off Road Premium and found the same thing. I used the Metra kit which was ok. I have the Schosche kit as well and just need the time to paint it. In my opinion the Schosche is going to be a better fit but only comes in silver. The Metro kit matches perfectly...

Just a heads up for you all. Toyota Financial is switching providers or something at this time. I just made a payment on the 4Runner two days ago and while checking my account today saw I was hit again. They are real sorry... and will try to get a check out in 7-10 days. Beyond pissed about...

Guess I need to update the thread. I bought a ARB Fridge last week. It was delivered Tuesday. Going to wire up a fused hot lead for starters this weekend. If a dumb ole guy in podunk can figure it out. Thanks for all the helpful posts and advice. Phil

No sales tax in Oregon, even on vehicles. Licensing is reasonable as well. For the list.. here in Idaho you pay tax on the difference in value between the trade and the new car. Has nothing to do with what you may owe on the rig. Also in Idaho you own the plate on the rig, and take it with...

Try this Cars for Sale: 2015 Toyota 4Runner 4WD in Nashua, NH 03060: Sport Utility Details - 400275968 - Autotrader Good luck Phil

Congrats! Nice looking ride. Have a good time!

Well I'm game to try the ARB Fridge I believe. The savings in restaurant food, and not throwing stuff away that is soggy sounds great. Probably not to bad to wire both cars up with a fused 12v hot in the back. Both rigs already have the outlets. The idea of a solar panel to keep it all topped...

Thanks Chris, That looks like one heck of a good idea. Now we are getting into some money so I'll have to think on it some. It does sound like an ideal system. Sitting around today waiting to go lite 340 acres for the USFS today. Will be doing some research. Phil

My drive cycle is drive one day 200-450 miles, then for two days about 10-20 miles in the am sit all day, then 10-20 in the evening. The two days I am at the base its to and from lodging. Then I have a travel day and it repeats. I do this for three bases have a few days off and repeat. I guess...

Hey Everyone, So Summer is coming and I am looking at options for traveling. I drive one full day and then do relief for one of our fire contracts. I'll be there typically for two days then on the road for another day and then relief again for two days. On the two days I am relieving I will...

I'm in the 6112/5160 crowd. Got a great deal on them, not a difficult install and it leveled my 2015 Limited perfectly. I like the ride quality and am heading off road tomorrow! Can't go wrong, and its $500 cheaper than the TRD Pro suspension I was considering. Best of luck. Phil

We have some police K-9 training in town right now. At the coffee shop in the am there have been 5-6 cruisers with animals in the back sitting there idling. Officers are inside drinking coffee. Looks like a pretty good theft deterrent system to me. Phil

I like the ride. It is very similar to my 2014 FJ Trail ultimate. That had a really good ride for gravel roads, pot holes, and the road to work. (county maintenance over an old land fill) The ride feels more supple and not as rough I guess you would say. The wheels and tires are doing the...

I went ahead and did my install on Saturday. I set the 6112's on the 3rd slot. It turned out great. I think I will add a small spacer in the rear as its pretty level now, and maybe a bit nose high. Cheaper and easier to move the rear up a smidgen than the front down. I really like the ride and...

Looks Great. Big improvement.
