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

Went to Chili's today and saw a nicely restored, 1932 Model AA Ford truck in the parking lot:

Since purchasing my 4Runner in January. I haven't seen any real weather. It snowed a bit today in Kansas so I went out and drove around some back roads. Mounted the iPad mini on the windshield from the cup holder and bought a sun visor storage for some EDC stuff I have lying around the house.

I got jiggy with it. Picked up my Kings yesterday from Fedex (Thank Filthy Motorsports!), called up my coworker (who just bought a 2017 Tacoma Offroad) and said "lets do some stuff to my stuff and drink some LaCroix's!"
This is the result. Installed the King coilovers and the shocks out back. I did not install the Dobinson's progressive rate coils yet in the rear cause right now I don't really have that much weight...33" spare and a CBI rear (non tire carrier). The Toytec coils will do for now. Also mounted the 305 Nitto Ridges and SCS Ray10's that have been hangin out in my garage for a month. No rubbing after removing the spidertrax wheel spacers. Happy with the stance! Will likely add maybe a 1/4 or 1/2" pre load to the coilovers...or two turns of the collar.

First impressions: :reddance:
Second impression will have to wait till the end of the month. I leave town for two weeks tomorrow for work. :mad:

I need some friends like you two.

Looks great.
 
Road Trip

Packing for next weekend. We're heading to Joshua Tree, Angeles NF and Dumont for camping and mountain biking. Not exactly a dream trip, but every where I want to go has been washed away with the rain. Plan B is a quick trip to Bend OR to pick up and RTT. Either way, I'm looking forward a nice, long weekend.

Went to Big Bend and only had time for Boquillas Mexico and Dagger Flats.

Well let's see...

Almost ran out of gas with my kids in the car and discovered I didn't have my wallet, had to phone a friend to fix that, bummer for sure.

My son got sick, high fever etc, wife out of town, second bummer.

Washed and waxed it, apparently it was a bad winter given how many chips in the paint I got. Truck looks better than it did when I woke up though!

Then walked inside and got a call that my grandfather passed away, third bummer of the day, bad things come in three's right?

It's been a day, good thing I like to drink alcohol.

:jaw:


Enjoy every day and make sure your priorities are aligned correctly.
