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

I have the Roscoe 8. I actually just got it earlier this week so planning on taking it out to the trail for the first time this weekend.

I have last years Roscoe 8. Kept waffling back and forth between the Roscoe and the Fuel and have been very happy with my decision on the Roscoe!
 
Something I’ve always wondered about these ladders:
When you climb up them don’t your shoes kick the hatch and scratch the paint?
Especially on the lower two rungs that are closer to the hatch.
Or do you climb up on your tippy toes?

I don't have any problem with this like some people do. I'm just careful to not kick my liftgate door when I'm going up ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Agreed, I just step on the bumper then skip the 1st two steps on the ladder where it is tightest to the truck. Haven't had any issues but I also let my kids climb on the rack to have lunch anytime we stop and they aren't as careful.

I have way more scratches on other parts of the truck from using it than I do on my back hatch from going up and down the ladder. Also, I think the more you use it the less you actually use the ladder. Personally I almost always use my sliders when loading and tying things down on the rack.
 
Brutus goes to the dealership

Went in to 355 Toyota in Rockville, MD for my 35,000 mile service. The Rep tried to sell me some fuel additive service "since you put in premium fuel." When I told him I drive on 87 Octane he told me that I shouldn't and that premium fuel is recommended. I told him the manual said otherwise & passed on his generous offer.

Then I walked outside to find both a new 2018 Cavalry Blue & and a 2019 Voodoo Blue right off the boat. That 2019 rack is straight hideous. Prices below if interested:

Every time salesmen do stuff like this I always lead them on with ridiculous questions like "will it give me more horsepower?" and it's just incredible how far they'll keep going.

Whole lot of $ for 2 hideous color trucks. Sorry, maybe it's just me, but I find the majority of the TRD Pro specific colors to be terrible.

What’s up with that BS $1045 “handling” fee?
Frickin dealers.

My plan today was to put on my badge overlays....they shipped me the actually badges instead. So what I thought was going to be an easy mod is a tad bit more work. I've already removed the SR5 badges from the pillars, so I don't think I am even going to replace those. I'm not thrilled about pulling the 4Runner badges off the back and then replacing them correctly.

Does anyone know if the emblem on the front of a 2018 SR5 is just stuck on with adhesive?

Post pictures of what they sent you. Something doesn't add up here.
