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

Well you can't put a new set of Mickey Thompson MTZ's on and NOT go test 'em out. Loaded the kids and the dogs this morning and went for a drive.......




Just a little badly maintained country road a few miles from my house.

I started painting my chrome, next step is the chrome trim around the front rear and sides, and door handles. Has anyone been successful at getting their LE headlights replaced under the TSB, for oxidation, with TE headlights?

Not me, the manager said it has to be swapped out part for part.
I guess if you know someone, maybe.
 
decided to try my hand at a little plasti dip. doing the front grill surround and rear hatch surround. 1st coat down:rockon:

ETA: 4coats and the front is done and back together.... on the the rear hatch

You seemed to have accidentally missed the fog light trim :ohwell:
 
Drove it on an airstrip for the first time!

I was thinking about doing a Jeremy Clarkson (BBC TOP GEAR) mimic version of the runner doing 0-60 in however may seconds it would take but the runway was collapsing and rocks where everywhere. Still a fun little Sunday outing!

The last picture is a tunnel that runs under the runway which was REALLY cool.

Hey RasJeff, I took Sonora Pass over to Owens Valley on Thursday for some camping this weekend.. I don't know when you were over there but I drive mag-grey TE. I noticed a few TE's myself, I try to wave if I spot them in time. How was the weather? We got some thunderstorms near Mono Lake which made for some great photography.

Went camping over in Owens Valley for 4 days to do some photography. So far very impressed with the 4Runner on trips, drives like a cadillac on washboard desert-roads compared to my Jeep.
