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

So I work for a print publication in Boulder CO and happen to see this in the parking lot when I came back from lunch. Backpacker is one of our more popular magazines and this was actually the first time I've seen this one. We have another 4Runner we used for another one of our magazines but I have not seen it in a while.

Then as I was walking into the building, I saw this set up out back. Another 4Runner with a tear drop trailer. I asked the girl where she got the trailer from and she said it was from a local company call Colorado Teardrop. We get a lot of local companies that advertise with us stop by and showcase their products or offer samples of their products.

Flickering?
I was planning on doing maps/lift gate/overhead

Did you buy them from here https://www.superbrightleds.com/ or is this a common issue with all regardless of quality?

tks

Yea the two map lights were flickering, it was slightly annoying, the wife hated it. I ordered off eBay from a seller that advertised as a 4R package. It's common with cheap LEDs, I'll be ordering from Extreme LED when ever I order headlights.
 
Ordered that National Luna Dual Battery Kit this morning which then fueled the thought that I should upgrade my primary battery.

Have an upcoming camping trip (don't think Ill be able to install the dual's in time for) and will be living out of the rig and so I want to be able to run the truck for awhile without worry of it dying.

Either way upgraded to the Odyssey 34R-PC1500T.

I like those figgy pops, tasty snack.
 
Drove Down HWY1 to San Quintin Baja California

I met up with some old friends in San Quintin Baja California Mexico to get some lines wet and share some laughs.

I traveled over miles of empty beaches formed by volcanoes, ate too many tacos, had a few beers, and caught some nice fish.

Wonderful people in Baja... can't wait to do it again.

Hate to admit it, but today I put a nasty dent and scratch in someone's car while pulling into a parking space at the hospital. I'm usually really good at judging where the front end of my 4R is and how much room I have, but I got it wrong today. My MetalTech bumper grazed the other car's rear quarter panel. I barely felt a bump, and of course there was no damage to my bumper.

I had to leave a note, and spoke with the lady on the phone later. She was very nice about it but I sure hate screwing up someone's day like that.
 
Care to DM a fellow Utah angler and t4r member where this is at? If not I can completely understand. Gotta protect the good spots.

No secret on this one. The Raft River Mountains. Look up the Utah Cutthroat Slam and there is a map of where the Yellowstone Cutthroats are native. The Cutt Slam has been fun. Two down, two to go.

Sucks but I give you credit for the integrity to leave a note.
 
Went to get 10k service and left with a whole lotta customizations. Glad I asked. No more annoying seat belt chime. Remote windows down. Auto Unlock all doors. Rear wiper drip feature...
