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

any pics of the WT mats installed? I'm debating between them and the Husky liners. Thanks
Here's my weathertechs installed.
The passenger mat curls up a little near the door but other than that, these are awesome.

Technically it was yesterday

Wheels and tires came in on Halloween but I had to take care of my dad duties and guard the candy. Ran over to my buddies tire shop and had them mounted and balanced as soon as I got off yesterday.

@Darth,

Can you tell me which mud flaps you are using, and do you like them?
I am in the market for some and like the way yours look.

nice wheels!
 
New tires installed, Nokian Rotiiva AT Plus, stock size. First snowfall today and so far so good. Only issue is the tire shop managed to scratch every one of my wheels.... Not looking forward to this battle.


I feel your pain. Everyone of my wheels got scratched. That's why I took it to my Toyota dealer. They are replacing my wheels, maybe I can talk them into giving me pro wheels. Either way I can understand how they damaged all 4

This is one of the many reasons why I would never, ever want a "self-driving" car. No way some computerized POS is going to do anything like that.

Why not? Curiosity is having no problem off-roading the shit out of Mars.

And lets be real, any self-driving car especially in the sooner than later, is still going to have a steering wheel and "human driving mode".

Whoah whoah easy with the calm rationality there. Hot takes only, please.
 
Nice! Oh and just buy a utility trailer. Way cheaper than a pickup and can carry more :cheers:

Picked up a 130k mile 1993 Chevy 1500 single cab manual w/t for $700, ended up cheaper the large utility trailer I was considering. Ran out of patience looking for a sub $1k T100.

No more having to clean out my 4Runner with the leaf blower, for now.
 
what mount is this for your ARB compressor? would like to relocate the washer bottle but most i compressor mounts use the passenger side location too. thanks

Slee Off-Road for the compressor mount.

Also - I installed my Shrockworks sliders. Very nice looking and strudy/well built!

Well I got the door panel off, and was all set to install my 6x9's from my last truck in the doors, only to find out that they changed the screw holes and the adapter brackets that I've had for 2 4Runners will not work on this truck.

So since it was a nice day and I wanted to get something done I went to work swapping out all of the halogen bulbs with high power bright white SMD led bulbs from Fyreflys

I got the dome, all 4 doors, and license plates switched out

I tried to get a shot of the dome, but I don't think it was dark enough

I love how bright these things are, the license plate LED's are SUPER freaking bright! I also replaced the reverse light bulbs, but hard to get a picture with your vehicle in reverse on the hill even with the parking brake on, but they're the same bulbs as these

Also, since I lost a clip the other day in my engine bay when I was putting in the high beam bulbs and I said the truck "wasn't new anymore" since I lost the clip, I had to rectify that...

Yeah, at about 0.5 mph or something like that, on pretty mild terrain. But whatever the case, I doubt they'd program any off-road capability into a consumer vehicle. Heck, we can barely get anyone to build a decent body-on-frame!
