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

Drove from Yellowstone to Boise and stopped at Shoshone Falls. I had heard of them before but was shocked at how amazing they are...Can only post one pic from my phone for some reason so here's one from the top.

She's had a lot of work done to her in the past 24 hours. Xenon Supply HID's, Opti-Coat Pro, CQUARTZ interior protection, black vinyl wrap on roof rails and window tint in the front. Phew!

Nice ride! Did you have the roof rails wrapped all around or just part of it? I'm wondering if the crossbars would scrape off the vinyl wrap when you adjust them. Thanks
 
IMO -- Air down and slow down for trails. It's easier on wheel bearings, ball joints and you.

Thanks, I just got this one and the bearing was already bad. Everything else on the vehicle seems tight and there is no damage underneath to indicate abuse. But I will keep that in mind when I get into the rough stuff. I usually just plod along in fields, on forest service roads and other light trails to get to decent fishing or hiking spots.
 
A nice day in the Mojave. Stoddard Valley to Cougar Buttes, Johnson Valley.

It doesn't sounds like much, but after people hauling family around while they were visiting for the holiday, I got to spend 2 hours alone in my truck driving to/from work. My mood is now much improved.
 
I was messing with the Startup and Screen Off Image, thanks to [MENTION=127037]NutZac[/MENTION] ! He sent me this image and everything came out perfect.

What I did: Woke up in San Jose and realized someone stole the fuel and water tanks off the back of my CBI rear bumper.

Dickweeds. The one day I didn't have my padlock on them (2 heavy duty zip ties kept it from being stolen, but they cut those off in the middle of the night). I hope the TINY bit of gas still in that tank contained chemicals known in the state of california to cause cancer, cancer AIDS, of the balls!

Doesn't matter though... if someone wants it they would have took it. At least you didn't loose your padlock and your gas tank at the same time.

Kinda scared of hanging shit to leave shit on your rig. Cuz of f'ing thieves.

They didn't mess with my maxtraxs, rotopax, hilift, or spare, because those all had obvious anti-tamper bolts or locks. Even my rigid lights have the anti-theft bolts.

Still sucks. 110 dollars later at the surplus store and I had things put back together. They clearly didn't want to climb on the truck, so they went for the easiest steal.

Sorry to hear that [MENTION=124732]LawnDart[/MENTION]. People suck. I once caught a dude with his arm in my wrangler zip up window to his shoulder. Let's just say he learned his lesson!!

Welcome to the bay area. If it's not locked down, you don't own it any more.
 
What was the mileage and what did you pay?

Well... I was upside down on the crapolla I turned in, so not including that negative equity... about $29k... It has 38k miles. SR5 with a moonroof, leather, heated seats (so needed in AZ), backup camera in the mirror, junk factory stereo, too much chrome... I'm so excited!

I've missed my 02 4runner since the day I traded it in. It needed a ton of work, but I should have just done it. I'll learn to like this one more, I'm sure.
 
GOBI ladder install and LED low, high beam and fogs.

Great/PHENOMENAL service from GOBI.

The fogs were so much of a hastle to get it right as vendors could not send me the right ones. XenonDepot got it right for me and I wish I would have just started with them!
