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

Parked on the wrong street. Tornado touched down in Hampton, VA. Anyone know if the whole rear hatch will need to be replaced or can the body shop salvage it? Drivers side looks like a wood chipper was aimed at it for 30 minutes too. Over two years old and didn't have a scratch on it.

Picked up my new TRD shifter. I have a clear aluminum Icon transfer case knob on order to match. Best part was the stealer had emailed me a $25 loyalty coupon off a $100 purchase... shifter + a new oil filter was exactly one hondo :naughty:

Thank God you are OK. That is all that matters.

My Trail took its first door ding / dent / paint chip after 4 days, and has numerous scratches on it now.
 
I machined my own set screw for the TRD shifter and put that in last week. Icon transfer knob just arrived; install a little quicker :)

Well the power dropped out at about 3:30 am while I was working. It's been raining in Fort Nelson for 5 days now. Ran home during my shift and strung an extension cord from the 120v outlet in the back of my TE and hooked it up to the sub-pump so my house doesn't flood. I love my truck.
 
moved mattresses

first test of the UTILITY aspect...

2 x twin mattresses
2 x twin box springs

they all fit with a little squishing of the top mattress. Seats down, hatch open about half way.

Damn the door chime!


oh, some new wheels on order too!

Ok so it wasn't today but last weekend the fiance and I drove from Renton, WA to outside Eugene, OR and back in a day to look at our new bird dog (German Shorthaired Pointer) puppy (about 600 mile round trip). The best part is we avg. 24.2 mpg doing 65-75mph the whole trip :driving:, this is with stock everything and standard tire pressure. Once the mods begin probably not going to see that again, but I'll take it for the time being.

4 GSP's of my own. From whom did you acquire your puppy? I know a few GSP breeders in Oregon. I do not get 24 mpg but my 4runner does better tha:offtopic:n my Taco did that i traded in probably 19-20 mpg mixed driving with Duratracs in my signature. Great hunting rig!!:offtopic: Oh well!!
 
Drove over to The Ritz Carlton, Laguna Beach for "Yappy" Hour. That is Happy Hour for dogs...LOL

Next time I am getting a picture of my dirty a$$ 4Runner at the Ritz valet. It was hilarious. They parked it in between to a Brabus S Class and a Ferrari 360 Modena. LMAO

Haha Only at the Ritz, my wife used to work there, awesome property
 
This morning my 4Runner took me to Sandy Point for a wonderful sunrise, a tanning session, and then a free dinner courtesy of my secret White Perch spot. It's on, baby!

Please allow me to slam up the pictures Brockeverly style...

wash, clay bar, compound, wax, smile.....that was my sunday. It's good to have a shiny car. even waxed the rims!


oh yeah, detailed the interior too. Found my daughers secret cheerio stash all under the rear seats.
 
Installed new emblem. Now get even more weird looks. First they don't know why i'm driving from the left side, then they want to see who made the truck and then they see the emblem on the grill.
