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

Working on some good karma, up in the mtns came across two guys stuck in the snow. Hooked them up and pulled them right out.

Hey, keep that to yourself. LOL. I've had them for 3yrs and haven't seen anyone else with them. Mine are silver though and I painted the ring silver.
Oops sorry! Everyone forget I ever said anything about those wheels! Haha! I hadn't seen any other 4runners with the wheels so I went for them.

I love the idea of the replaceable rash ring. So far its the most "real" looking bead lock style ive seen also. I was trying to see the offset/back spacing diff between the pro wheels and these. If anything i would want the new wheels to stick out a little further to be flush/past flush with the wells. Any insight?
I think the stance on the wheels looks great, I'll take some pictures in the next day or so so you can see how they sit with 285/70 KO2s.

Finally got to use the wax from the chemical guys starter kit my awesome secret Santa got me. Did the Camry last night and the truck this morning. Hit some mountain bike trails this afternoon.

The 1 ton was stuck?

Yep, I think they’d been digging for a little bit. Open diffs, and tires spinning, young guys,the passenger said the driver was overconfident in the truck. I didn’t even ask if he had a rear locker and just didn’t know how to use it.

As far as they know 4runners are amazing now. :eyebrows:

Cleaned out the back the best I could in 30 degree temperature (husky hair is hard to get out) and laid down the Canvas Back I got a few weeks ago. Not quite what I was expecting but it should help catch some of the hair. Up next will be to build a cheap platform to level out the back for their crates.

...Jeez!...it's so sad to see dogs that are that depressed?!...:biggrin1:

...( I had an Alaskan-Malamute....basically a fur-factory!....LOL! )....
 
Appreciate the response, but I live by the philosophy of if I cannot pay cash, I cannot afford it - cars, toys, house and all. I think practicing this strategy in my early forties will allow me to have a pretty comfortable future.

I think when you pay interest it is a penalty, and when you earn interest it is a reward.

Just my .02 worth....OKAY, back to enjoying pics and adventures.

I'm in my forties as well, I just brought a new TRD and I financed. This why my investments earn me more money a year , than the interests of my loan a 2% for 4years. example 2 % × 38k = $760 , my investments make avg of 15% ×38k = $5,700 ($5700-$760 = $4,940 Difference a year totaling $19,760 for the live of the loan by leaving the money in the investment. I do what my financial planner tells me !
Does than math make sense ?
The the vehicle depreciate the same if you pay for it or you finance it, so paying $ doesn't make a difference.
