    Mounting RTT

    So yesterday I mounted my RTT to my 4R for the first time and realized it was an epic pain in the ass. The amount of room you have to tighten the nuts is barely enough for a wrench. Just curious if anybody has found a better way to mount their tent? I have a Gobi Stealth and a CVT tent; the...

    4Runner Modification Ideas

    Im right there with you. Ive been looking at everything; drawer systems, sliders, front and rear bumpers. So far the only thing Ive actually purchased were some interior LED lights, Ive been meaning to switch those out for awhile and just never did it. Also ordered a CVT roof top tent.

    Anyone hammock camp during winter?

    I use a Kammok Mantis, it comes with everything including straps, a rainfly, and an attached bug net. You can also buy the "winter barrier" which puts a solid top the hammock creating a cocoon. Youll definitely need a underquilt, which it sounds like you have already. I put another blanket in...

    Camo (multicam) Wrapped 5th gen

    It depends on the size of the vehicle and what the wrap is; solid color, camo, some company logo. But yes its going to cost a couple thousand dollars. Somebody said 3-5k and that sounds spot on to me. Youre basically paying for a high end paint job with the added benefit of protecting your...

    Does anyone get extended warranty ever?

    If you want the ext warranty talk them down just like you would negotiate the price of the car. I paid like $1500 for the ext warranty. If you plan on doing oil changes yourself or not taking it in to get the tire rotated, then its probably a waste of money. The 24hr roadside assistance could...

    Camo (multicam) Wrapped 5th gen

    No, a good quality wrap shouldn't mess up your paint job at all. If anything it will protect your paint.

    What happened to all of the hitch mounted tire carriers?

    I just saw this thing the other day. Offset swinging hitchgate by Wilco https://www.wilcooffroad.com/shop/hitchgate-offset/ Like the OP, I don't really have a need for a rear bumper yet, so this is probably the route Ill go in the future.

    Husky vs Toyota All Weather Liners on 5th Gen

    I have the new style Toyota All Weather mats and I'm pretty happy with them. They fit perfectly and look nice. I just went to Joshua Tree for two days and when I got back and pull the mats out to clean the interior there was nothing on the carpet; the mats completely protect the floor. I haven't...
