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

Cool idea. Do you happen to have any pictures of the roll-a-cot set up inside the 4runner? Would be interested in seeing how that fits.
Here ya go.

picked up a 42" Plano waterproof rifle case and mounted it to the roof rack to free up some trunk space. All material including the case itself was under $100

Thanks. That looks like it really effectively uses the available space. Would even have room for my dog to sleep under it if needed.

The dog could also sleep in front of the cooler right beside the cot, I used that spot for clothes and stored a stove, camping supplies, and other things under the cot. It works pretty good.
 
The evolution of my lighting solutions for the rear hatch. From stock (meh) to 12 LED replacement (better) to the latest solution.

Turns out the rear hatch lighting setup is just fine on the 4Runner. It’s just missing about 48 LEDs in the stock configuration. FYI there was no flash used in the pics below.

What remains to be seen is how the plastic covers will handle the placement of the new LEDs and resulting heat. I may need to play with this a bit....

I had an incredibly liberal teacher, as a child, that had a similar bumper sticker. He used to mock me in class due, to my 2nd amendment upbringing. Looking back, that dude was a d-hole. But, I always cracked up when I saw that bumper sticker! freakin hilarious!

...Oh, I have owned a variety of firearms over the decades, and I'm not mocking the 2nd-amendment....:gun6::hunter::ak472:

...But...just think how much more exciting and challenging it would be for the average hunter if animals were equally armed?!...:wow2:
 
Installed my fridge and solar panel yesterday. Still need to rewire the outlet in the back to make it always hot, as well as wire up the solar panel.
