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

Ordered a set of Cooper ST MAXX tires, and found a home for my FJ style 4 wheel drive emblem. I really like how it turned out.

Wanted to put a winter coat of wax on while the weather is still decent, especially before an upcoming cross country drive from DC to Portland. Hate not having a garage or driveway, had to hose it off at the quarter car wash before taking it to a hand wash place because I felt bad dropping it off covered in mud that smelled like boiled turds. The dude spent two hours on it and made me remember why I love this color! Waxed it myself afterwards and found a lot of battle scars I didn't realize I had inflicted on the watercolor-thick paint. (Yes I know tire shine is the devil).

Looks good! But yeah... tire shine... :puke: I had a detail shop clean mine up the other day and I forgot to tell them no on the shine as well. Flung that shit all over the side of my 4Runner on the way home.

Haha yeah man, it's like they just take a bucket full of it and splash it on all four corners.
 
Today I drove up to town to pay for my LC's new exhaust system.

What an awful feeling....you almost have all your lift money together, and then you have to hand it all over for something as un-sexy as this.

:cry2:
 
Took the Family to Disney Land for 4 days in my 4runner. It is about 430 miles each way from Northern California. Spent a good two hours today cleaning it up inside and out. The kids manage to get crumbs everywhere while in the car for 14 hours. Averaged 16.5mpg for the trip. Not very good. Oh well.

Never fails, every single trip with the kids, I find all kind of crumbs and what not all inside every nook and crannies. Lol.

I have a monthly membership to the quick qwuak car wash so I get to vacuum with their awesome vaccums any time I want. It's a good thing with kids.
 
Had lifted today, Bilstein @ 1.75 & Confed 1" rear spacer

Had it lifted to day, set the front Bilstein's @ 1.75, and had 1" rear cornfed sparers put in. I put Rear Bilstein's on a month or so ago. It drove better on the way home today, than the day I brought home from dealer new.

Gave it a quick bath to get the winter road scum off of it.

Anyone else get annoyed that the damn spoiler on the back gets full of really fine silt/dirt and when you wash it the mud trickles out of the drain holes on the spoiler for like an hour afterwards?!?! Grrrr.....
