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

Going camping. Moose River Plains Wilderness. 23 mile access track through the largest tract of state owned land in the Adirondack park. I'll try to get decent pics. My point n shoot died and I'm using my tablet camera. (Sketchy at best.) "Off the road again, can't wait to get off the road again ... "

I'd never heard of it, but after looking into it, it looks awesome! We just did Cranberry Lake over 4th of July weekend, which was nice but crowded and noisy. Can't see for sure from the maps if there are waterfront sites that are accessible by road or not though. Would much rather be able to fish from the campsite than not.
Have you camped there before?
 
Solo ride and explored Corral Hollow....
First time here, wasn't sure what I was getting into. Ran into this jeeper, pretty cool guy. Helped me clear a falling tree branch, rtt was a bit high. Decide to explore together. Some pretty tight spot in some area but manage to pass through with my rtt. Oh yeah, no harm was done to my TE37 in some of the rocky path. =) I shall return because there's some pretty cool camping spot.

Yep, couple tight spots and I know the tree you speak of. Wife didn't think we were going to make it under. She has no depth perception. For the most part, Corral Hollow is pretty easy, with some great scenery.
 
I will say coming from tuning and building cars I never liked stickers but the 4runner seems to like them

Yup, it got a lot easier the further i went. Great area for a day trip and picnic or overnight camping. This was one of the closer trail from the south bay. Any recommendation on a moderate trail?

There are tons of US Forest Service roads that go either from Hyw 4 to Hwy 88 or Hwy 4 to Hwy 108, and everywhere in between. There's also Black Springs OHV with many off shoot trails.

I am up there most weekends in Dorrington.

Feel free to hit me up if you're up there. Also, in Dorrington, stop by the Lube Room for food and cold beverages. It's a great place.

I'm doing that Rav4 Mod this week, which is especially nice of us with tire carrier bumpers.
 
Over the past couple days, lots.

-Oil, filter, crush washer (OEM)
-Front diff service (Mobile 1 75W90 and OEM crush washers)
-Center diff service (Mobile 1 75W90 and OEM crush washers)
-Rear diff service (Mobile 1 75W90 and OEM crush washers)
-Coolant flush (OEM)
-Spark plugs (OEM)
-Front brake pads, rotors, and hardware (OEM)
-Rear brake pads, rotors, and hardware (OEM)
-Cleaned air filter (K&N drop in)
-Pollen filter (OEM))
-Retorqued the driveshafts and greased all of the fittings
-Tire rotation and balance
-Wheel alignment
-A/C evac and recharge
-Checked spare tire pressure and condition
-Topped off fluids and inspected everything top to bottom
-Full interior detail
-Exterior wash

Tomorrow will be a second coolant flush and a brake fluid flush. All said and done it adds up quick but I guess it's not too bad for not quite $900 in total.

But I still need to figure out a phone app or cheap code reader type thing or something that can read trans temp so I can do a trans service and accurately set the fluid level.

I spoke to my dealership and they are waiting on the remedy and like the notice states, we will get a second notice when the remedy is available and take it into the dealership. Looks like the front seat is now the gear seat.
