lol, i haven't touched the defrost ever since. I do have to roll the window down to open up the gate because the cable busted also for the latch. Which I also need to repair but I can not seem to find anything about it. I was about to make a thread on here to figure some things out.

Bringing this back from dead as it just happened to me and I did a quick Google search. 7.30am this morning (Christmas eve) driving to work. 35 degrees outside (Houston, TX), rear defrost on, I had the rear window down half way like I always do because it just feels great. All of a sudden...

I get 350 miles out of a full tank in my 2006 v6 with 133k miles. I did the HCF mod and it helped about a couple of miles in the mpg's. Changing out spark plugs (if they're old), and a good fuel system cleaning (either in tank or SeaFoam through intake) will also help open up some room and clean...

Sweet! Will do sir. I'm always around Clear Lake area so I'm sure I will see you one day.

Oh I see. I am planning on getting the Revtek 3" kit for mine. Hoping it will make me happy.

Yea I know about Sugarhill but never been. I don't think I can make it there in a 2WD though lol. Might have to bring out our Wrangler for that. Still would give it a shot though once I lift up a bit with better tires. I'm in the southeast side in Deer Park.

I love how that is sitting. Is that a 3" lift? Sorry I'm a noob with the lifts, I come from slammed VW's lol.

Thanks! haha yea I need to get a can of flat black paint for those since the plasti-dip will come off easily.

So I just got my 4Runner this past Thursday. This is all I've done since I got it. It has 130k on it and it is an 06 SR5. Opened up the headlights and painted all the chrome, Plasti dipped, wheels, front grill, lower middle section of bumper, rear hatch chrome handle thingy, clear dipped the...

Thanks guys! So I found out that the cool kids take off their running boards, so I did that, and also painted the inside of the headlights, which is I'm happy with but the lenses were already so bad, it doesn't look that great. So, I will still get new headlights and probably going to paint...

Yea for sure! I need to find locals now to get some ideas and help. What part of Houston are you living in?

I guess I should start a little progress thread or something :) Here is what i did last night. Plasti-Dip. Not sure if i want to take off all the other logos or just dip them also yet.

I think the shield for the gas tank in dented in. I'm pretty sure it's not supposed to look like that lol, so I will be taking that off and bend it back out somehow soon.

Here she is. Nothing special lol. Plans are, first a nice tune-up, then leveling kit, and after that, new headlights and fog lights since they all look horrible and somebody tried to fix them and made them even worse :crazy: Also going to black-out all the chrome and wheels, then darker tint...

What's up people? Just got a 2006 SR5 4 Runner 2WD with 4.0l V6. Coming from having VW's and love it so far! Looking forward to doing a few things to it and make it my own! Hoping to get some cool ideas and help from this forum!
