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

Little video my brother made of our day trip around Lake Havasu in my SR5.

How'd you rack up so many miles? Tons of long trips or a really rad daily commute?

I live in Texas. None of our family lives in Texas.

So... Many... Miles... just to get out of Texas....................... :cowboy:

Seriously, when it takes you 8+ hours just to get to another state, you rack up the miles fast.

PlastiDip on the front grill. Blacked out the silver roof rails. Before and after pics.

Bought it and drove it 501 miles back home in the snow. Former 3rd gen 4runner owner, former 08 Tundra owner, former 06 Tacoma owner, finally in a 5th gen 4runner. Love it so far. Stock as a clock, 1-owner and still fresh!

Installed a Gobi Stealth Rack. Now to find a 40" LED light bar so I can mount to the rack.

Are your headlight housings smoked or are my eyes playing tricks on me? If so, details please?

I had the worse experience with World Toyota today. The service guy spent 15-20 minutes searching for my keys. He finally found them at the bottom of his desk drawer. When I got in my car the seat was set like someone slept in it and the center console looked like it was scavenged through. Nothing was stolen luckily. Finally right before I left the stealership, one of the workers came up to me and said everything I've done to my car was a waste and it doesn't look good. To which I sped off. I don't recommend and highly discourage anyone to ever go there.

I've yet to find a good Toyota dealer in metro Atlanta. I bought my 4Runner from Mall of Georgia Toyota and have had nothing but terrible experiences with their service department.

Yes, the housings are blacked out. I bought some TYC headlights and sent them to LightWerkz in NJ to do a HID projector retrofit. They also offer painting services so I requested that they black out all of the housing. Some more info in their vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65lOonLFKmo

That is a sweet set up, can I ask what the cost was for the conversion and paint?

That's hilarious! Yeah, I have family that moved there from Seattle in 2011. I rarely ever saw 5th gens when I visited until this winter, seems like a lot of them there now.

Accomplished 2 things yesterday. Installed a new decorative receiver plug and spent the better part of the day doing an interior detail. Had to break out the big guns for that one (shop-vac, air compressor and hot water extractor) to get the job done.

Turned my car into the dealer after it crapped out on me. Went to turn on the ignition and lights on dashboard were blinking: power steering, brake light, 4lo, multi terrain mode, and check engine light. Also, car wouldn't shift from park. Checked fuses, all looked good. Carista app showed this. Manually moved shifter to drive and drove to dealership super slow. They refused to give me a loaner however after a little "my family has purchased five vehicles from here" was given a Camry. I'll keep y'all posted. Don't know about you guys but was a little upset as I have never experienced such an issue before.

It was South of I20 near Oak Grove Rd/Joel East Rd.

Oh. Thought you were closer. I haven't seen you around town, but that explains why.

I have the brackets and lightbar to install behind the grill. Just need the time to do it.
