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

Fabbed a bracket for an ARB dual compressor. Got it done in a day. Next up the SPOD with 8 circuits and bluetooth.

I didn't really think that through properly. When I came out the mustang was gone so I was just a prick that was parked up on the curb and half in a spot...

Picked up my recently linex'd southern style speed hybrid bumper. Put it back on and then went camping. I also picked up another item from linex but have yet to put it on the 4RUNHER...

I'm sure the Mustang driver was sick and tired of all the big SUVs with off-road style bumpers parking to close and scraping his precious toy, so he parked the way he thought nobody will fit near his car.:boxing:

BTW, It wasn't me, I don't own this Mustang, I don't own any Mustang, I haven't even been it Texas yet :hunter:

Basically you both parked like knobs, but at least you only took one space. If you are going to take up two spaces, you do it way out in the BFE section of the parking lot not up front.
 
Camping in the Catskills

It was a little colder and wetter than they called for but so nice to get away for a night.

Woke up to a coyote serenade which sounded like it was just outside the tent, and which scared my daughter at first, but then she bragged about it in the brave light of morning as the highlight of the trip. Snow on the highest peaks as we drove home.

Talk to Doug at Headwaterstrailsny.org if you are interested in riding your mountain bike or hiking there.

Went to the hills this weekend (still up here) to get some things done around the old man's cabin. It was nice to finally feel like fall had arrived here in CA.

Hopefully I will be throwing a set of Cooper ST MAXX's on this week. With winter around the corner, timing couldn't be better!

Drove the heck out of it to get back from Moab... Some great camping and mtn biking. Pretty cold over night, below freezing both nights, but was fine with Mr. Buddy ready to go in the morning. :flamethrwoer2:

Didn't do any off-roading to speak of, the riding was too good! :trophy:

Too tired to actually go through the iPhone pics, and I forgot the good camera so whatever your mental picture is, it was better.
 
Gave more hard earned non-gold backed paper currency represented by theoretical plastic-based "credit" to the good folks at Wheelers Offroad ...
 
I cant keep up with some of you guys...

i just took it back from the woman to whom i am related by marraige...its amazing how quickly she went from "i dont like it, its too big, too manly" to "i like driving OUR truck...its big, and smooth, and quiet, and no one tries to cut me off in traffic"

:loco:

Added the viper 4105 remote starter, took off the running boards, added a 10 inch Pre-Amped Bazooka tube and washed it! Spidertrax arrived and Toytec 2in' kit is set to be delivered tomorrow hopefully.

If you have a TRDP and want some extra thump in your trunk, the Bazooka tube is more than enough.

Took her in for an oil change today. I love seeing the look on the service guys' faces when I roll in, being that I'm one of 2 or 3 lifted 4runners in town but the only one with adjustable coilovers. :dancin:
 
Lumber Truck

This weekend I hauled some lumber home from the local lumber yard. I'm remodeling our 1913 Craftsman Carriage House. I needed some sistered studs and blocking to flush out the old rough framing before I add plywood sheathing to the ceiling and walls.
I didn't want the Toyota roof rack cross rails because I plan to change the rack to a Gobi or Baja Rack. In the mean time I use a couple of boards across the side rails and tie it down real well.
Will be hauling plywood next, maybe 6 sheets at a time. I'll only bring home what I need for the ceiling or one wall at a time because I don't have anywhere to store it except right in the middle of the Carriage House. :photo:
