    Dog proofing

    My 90lb black lab goes in a crate in the back. Plenty of room for him to lay down and he doesnt get slammed against the sides of the vehicle when i take a turn a little to quickly.

    Which Weathertech for cargo area?

    I have the Canvasback Cargo liner. I like it alot. It would also cover the back of your seats in case the cargo box rubbed up against them. All you would need is some velcro tape to stick on top of the cargo box.

    Road trip!

    I second the Arlington National Cemetery and the changing of the guard. It's a very humbling experience to see, much more so than the museums. Stay in Virginia, the bar scene is much nicer IMO. Just be warned that "The Crystal City Restaurant" is not a regular restaurant, and their "strip steak"...

    5th Gen Spotted Thread

    I just got pulled over for going 8 over..people were actually passing me as I got pulled over. I was out of state which Im pretty sure was the reason. $15 fine and $188 for court costs. Pretty ridiculous, maybe he was just trying to avoid a similar fisting.:police:

    Sp8Ball’s Mod Thread (Stealing Other Poster’s Ideas Since Mid-2010)

    Bump! I read through all 41 pages.. it took 2 days (while taking a break from work I'd read a page or 7). I feel like a kid on Christmas morning who didn't get the only toy he asked for. No grill mod or black wheels..:cry2: But seriously this thread is like reading a good book, a mix of...

    Best Looking Black Wheels, 2010 4Runner

    By Plasti-dip blackout does that include your door handles? I have a Black 4R that would look much better without the chrome door handles, just worried about how that would hold up.

    Gettin' Waxed...

    I bought the turtle wax black box. It took some time to apply by hand but that was 2 months ago and water still beads up like the day I waxed it. Get gloves though, I still have black wax and polish on the sides of my fingernails that won't come off. Of course this is a cheap alternative, I'm...

    Removing Running Boards from limited

    Love the look man. What wheels and tires are those? Do you have a lift on that? I have a black SR5 and am looking for some black wheels. Removing my running boards this weekend.

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

    Care to share a link to the black handles? I would like to replace my chrome ones as well. I also took of the SR5 emblems, a bit of patience and it looks like it was never there.

    Florida Vince's build thread (so far, more to come) ...

    For the time being I think it will strictly be cosmetic stuff..plan on tinting the front sides and spraying anything shiny with plasti dip. What brand antenna is that you put on? I see a lot of folks using the stubby ones but I think I would lose to much reception with the really short ones.

    Florida Vince's build thread (so far, more to come) ...

    Just debadged mine after work..took about 45 minutes being careful not to scratch the paint. No hair dryer, probably would have been much quicker with one but the waxed floss trick worked perfectly. Used bug and tar remover and then a quick polish and re-wax of the area makes it look like it was...

    Thanks for the advice! Im going back and forth between just plasti dipping the badges and removing them. Id like to make at least 1 payment on her before I scratch anything up. Keep us updated on your future mods! MMMmm Herr's Old Bay Crab Chips :pop2:

    Florida Vince's build thread (so far, more to come) ...

    Care to elaborate on how you went about the debadge process? I know there are a few ways folks go about doing it, just wanted to see how you personally did it. My only problem is that my 4R is a 2010 so im scared the badges are stuck on a little more tightly than a new 4R. PS- I grew up in...

    Window Issues..Help!

    Might have to try the silicon lubricant because the tracks are clean. Ill stop by the auto store after work look around. Just one of those things you dont notice while you're at the dealership, only after you get home and try to roll the windows up.
