TPATT88's Build / Adventure Thread

[TPatt88]

Hi All,

I am the proud owner of this 2010 SR5 4WD that I got CPO with 17k miles in November of 2012. 4 1/2 years later she has 86,000 miles on the clock and is running strong as ever.

I have always wanted to make a build thread so hear goes!

This is her in her current state and preferred habitat (Potash Rd on the way up to Canyonlands NP in Moab here).

I have a very full time job plus a wife and two small children so I am not on the site as often as I would like, but have been around for the duration of my 4Runner ownership and love the forum and all of the advice and inspiration you can find here.

Funny, I drive around town and feel like I have one of the top 4Runners in the area, I get on the forum and I know how far behind I really am!

Finally it is my DD again (after a 3 year stint as my wife’s DD as my commute was about 95 miles a day, it didn’t make sense to burn her up like that) after transferring back into town.

In her free time she likes to explore the west, go camping and hit the trails. In the 4Runner we have been to Yosemite (a lot of times), Sequoia, Kings Cyn, Death Valley, San Fran, Monterey, San Diego, Phoenix (yay spring training baseball), Mammoth, the Alabama Hills, Bodie Ghost Town, Bristlecone Pine NM, the Mojave road (best trip ever?), Vegas, Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, 4 Corners, Mesa Verde, Moab, Canyonlands, Arches, Capitol Reef plus many more.

Anywho, here be the mods in chronological (as I remember them) order:
