Took the kids to the beach. I can't wait for my Frontrunner rack to come in, as a 2m ARB awning would have been flipping fantastic today.

Ouch. I guess they're banking on people not willing to wait for a new one. Sounds like someone could go into business buying Gobi's and selling them locally at a premium. It's interesting to see how expensive freight can be, yet it's offered free from most of these rack companies. Gives a...

Have you asked Gobi who they use? I know FedEx has a LTL freight division, and we use ABF at my work (as do a lot of our suppliers). Individually quoted freight is outrageously expensive. Companies like Gobi (and others) have standing commercial contracts with a freight company for discounted...

Bump for more white pics

I went back and forth on racks for the last six months. I ultimately ordered the Frontrunner Slimline II 3/4 "Extended" version from Apex Overland last week. I didn't want to A) waste money buying a sunroof and then covering it up, or B) feel like I'm in prison if I opened it, so I bought...

Independence Day run with my daughter in Ocala National Forest.

Pretty much. As for the 6th gen predictions, I've not a clue. I know I love my 5th gen, and my gut tells me that I'll still be content when the 6th gen drops.

1 - Cement 2 - Quicksand 3 - Calvary Blue The only color that would have made me skip buying a TRD ORP with sunroof is Cement.

I get that not everyone needs, wants, or would use a factory e-locker or crawl control, but calling them "gimmicky" is quite the stretch. The faux hood scoop, yeah, that's gimmicky. If you could get away with owning a Highlander based on your needs, but just prefer the 4Runner, then by all...

A buddy and I installed my lift today. Didn't want to do a full system just yet, as I've not been limited by the stock suspension performance off-road here in FL, but wanted a bit more ground clearance. The on-road behavior has greatly improved, with far less body role, nosediving, and...

Front - Toytec 112-620 springs and TT TP14 1/4" spacer on drivers side. Rear - Wheeler's T13 springs and 1/2" Cornfed spacer drivers side. ETA: Since this is often used for a reference thread by those shopping, I thought I'd post more details... Tires are 275/70 K02's. Also worth noting, the...

Just finding this section of the forums. Central FL here, Mt. Dora area. I live about 15 minutes from ONF and hit it regularly with two buddies and our families. Happy to join any runs or show anyone around ONF. Anyone new to the area, or considering a trip to ONF, you should really download...

It’s worth it if you plan on keeping the TRD suspension. It’s worth it if you’re willing to pay MSRP just for the color. Must you have what is considered “the best” of everything? Do you thrive on elitism? Is it just freaking cool and you want one? Value is subjective, much like our...
