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

I replaced the dome and map lights with LEDs. Might not be a big deal to any of you guys but to me, I'm totally not mechanically incline in any way. This is the start of a lot of stuff on my '14 SR5P.

Next weekend I'll put the rest of the LEDs in. Then, later this summer, I'll be getting some sliders. Leaning towards Shrockworks at the moment.

Went to Mammoth this weekend. We drove in Friday night while it was snowing, the rig did great. Weather was perfect, it was great to get some snow in SoCal. The best part was seeing so many other 5th Gens and two other TEs in particular.

Nice rig.
I'm heading up there next month. What area did you take that pic in? How was the fishing? What lakes did you go to?

That's Laurel Lake Trail of off Sherwin Creek RD. You can get there off of Old Mammoth RD or directly off of the 395. I didn't do any fishing. I was able to visit

Convict Lake:


Twin Lake:


Lake Mary:

First mod I did was LED's in my puddles, it's a slippery slope from there, and not cheap.
 
The next 4Runner commercial should just be a slideshow of pics from this thread, set to some great, high-tempo music.
 
Took off Friday up to Kern river, rain all day Friday, Sat-Sun was sunny and warm.

Got to run home to see my parents for Mother's day. Tooled around a bit in my trail rig, but it's run-off season so most all of the forest service trails are closed and gated for a few weeks :(.

Had a blast with a 2015 4R SR5 rental in WA for the weekend... interior is definitely refined as was expected but most surprising was the smoother? transmission/shifting and soft purring of the engine compared with my 2013 TE...

Can't believe I lucked out w a 4R at at National over at Seatac!

That looks like a Loadwarrior rack. Can I ask what boxes you are using up top. They look like the perfect fit and I'm looking for storage solutions.

That is a Yakima load warrior and those are 2 pelican 1600 cases. They fit nicely loaded front to back, haven't tried side to side yet but I don't think they would fit. Minimal road noise and the Yakima net holds them in place.
