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

Found a cabin over the weekend to park in front of. =)

I've been looking at dashcams...can you recommend yours? I had the same question about the drift as well...but clearly the ford driver was cutting in at the last second.

I bought one off ebay, it came with a rear view camera. I turns on when you start your vehicle, it records in 1080p, both cameras record at the same time. If you have an Academy Sports near you they have something similar there too.

Shrockworks dual battery tray installed!!!!!* (exceptions being the plastic tray for under the battery and the hold down arms and clamp, not going in til i get a battery for this slot)

Long story short this mod was easier than expected. Though i did lose the 8/32" nyloc nut since that ac line clamp might as well be a damn catapult... luckily my friend had one handy (YES!). And I had to add some wire loom with zip ties to the rubber washer fluid lines so the dual battery tray and the surprisingly sharp folded metal wouldnt cut the lines.

Now to save my funds for the battery or batteries (not sure on this yet), blue sea ML-ACR, and other items to complete this mod....

Took my wife to the local Toyota dealer after hours to look at RAV4's that she's thinking about buying. Nothing special just window shopping. However, I looked at a TRD Pro 4Runner and one of the TForce models just to see what's up with them. Surprised that the TRD Pro had Dunlop Dueler A/T's on it and the TForce had Nitto Terra Grapplers G2's on it. I would have thought the TRD Pro would have a better set of tires on it based on the sticker price. Anyway, just something I saw while my wife looked at the colors of the RAV4's. You know it's always the color of the car that sells it.

I HIGHLY suggest taking a look at the 2017 Honda CR-V as well.
 
Took one last photo of the old rig beside it before her new owner came to drive her away :(

I picked up a used 2015 Sr5 last week, everything's in awesome condition except the scratched center console. Decided to take it and the Hvac panels off and paint them.

It was really Nasty in there, seems like the previous owner spilled something and never followed up with it.

Sorry for the crappy cell pics and forgetting to take more while doing it:der:

Interesting. Are 2017 Pros coming with Revo 2s now? Some other Bridgestone ATs? Was this a used Pro? Dealer specific tire choice? 2016s and prior came with Nitto TG G2s.

Lots of rain here today, so on the way home I stopped off at a local park to shoot a few pics of Megaweapon in the rain:

Tomorrow is a big day! Cris and I are taking a drive out to Anza-Borrego to check out the wildflowers. Should be a good bloom this year with all the rain we've had. Anyway, I'm excited because it's the first chance I've had to hit any real trails since August, and also the first since getting the lift. On the way home we plan to stop in Julian for dinner and pie.

Even better, on Wednesday night I'm heading out there again for a solo overnight trip.
