    Salida, Co area - What to do?

    Hey all, I'll be traveling to Salida, CO this week and I was wondering if any of know of any trails or sights that would be enjoyable to see. We will be in the wife's 4runner, but I have already been told that we are not doing any serious off-roading. As a kid I camped out at Billing Lake and I...

    Any of you nerds play computer games?

    Old school gamer here. Don't play many FPS anymore as I now get motion sick very easily as I have aged. I do play a good amount of World of Tanks, and I watch my boys play Subnautica and Battlefield 1. Look me up on WOT and join me for a game. MeanoTorino is the handle on WOT as well.

    Kaibab National Forest - Grand Canyon North Rim

    Hey guys, I'm taking the family out to the Grand Canyon in July and we plan on visiting the North Rim. From what I can tell I should be able to camp without having to be in a designated campground if I stay in the Kaibad National Forest. Are any of you familiar with this forest? if so can you...

    I'm getting an Explorer now!

    These are two different vehicle that are not even in the same class. I just came out of a 2004 Ford explorer(body on frame). It rode better than my 17' 4runner and seemed to have the same amount of power. What I did not like was the transmission. The transmission was junk. The sad thing is that...

    What would you like changed in your 5th gen?

    Few things that I wish were better on my 17 TRD (trail): 1. The brake dive from the factory is insane. My Ford Explorer and Bronco (with worn out TTB) are way more settled when braking. 2. Wish it had a handle on the driver A-pillar for shorter drivers (my wife). 3. Interior feels cheap...

    Consolidated Slider Info Thread

    I'm posting some photos of my SSO Sliders. When I was shopping sliders I wanted something with a good enough footing at the rear door for my kids to have a decent step. These worked out great. These photos will show the clearance from the top view. You should be able to see how much of a step is...

    What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

    My 2017 TRD Offroad non-premium does not have the driver side grab handle. Wonder how much that trim piece cost. My wife told me the other day that she wished the vehicle came with one.

    What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

    I didn't really run into any issues, but I used a transmission jack to align everything up and I think that really helped. If I was just using a standard jack and jack stand i could see where it would have been a little more involved. With the trans jack you can tilt the top plate in multiple...

    What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

    Finally got my SSO (Southern Style Offroad) Sliders back from powder coating and was able to get them installed. I will do a write up later today if I have time.

    Husky vs Toyota All Weather Liners on 5th Gen

    I have the Toyota liners and they work perfectly. I was surprised that there were made in the USA as well. The fit and finish is great and they are not flimsy.
