I hit 200k today in my 2020 Volvo VNL730 (big rig). Been in this tractor about 18 months, but, 6 months it's been in the shop for repairs from 2 accidents. One major, neither my fault.
I drive about 3,000 miles every week.

So a big rig gets 3mpg?

Went up to Big Bear from Apple Valley using Coxey road on Sat during the first snow of the season!!!
Was an amazing fun trip. The 4runner did great and only had a few spots that were basically an ice layer where it was sliding. We made our way back down the Mt. using the front (normal) way. It was slow going but made it down safe and sound.

I recently encountered this issue on a front camera install. I think there are a few options behind the head unit but I was also unsure and didn't want anything to get pinched. I extended the length of the provided ground wire and ran it behind the dash to a more traditional ground location (like an actual bolt in metal) on the driver's side footwells.
You can also check out this video: 2020 Front Camera & Anytime Camera Install - Works for Toyota 4Runner/Tacoma/Tundra - YouTube around the ~14 min mark it quickly shows where they grounded.
Hope this helps!

Played in the snow in Water Canyon, just above my home.
Beautiful! I love Nevada in the summer but it would be nice to visit there during some of the other seasons.

Got the wife's 4Runner cleaned up today as well..
Super jealous that you can come and go from your garage without removing your cargo carriers first.

Finally finished up my raptor line project! Below are some crappy pictures of the truck lol. Will get some better ones when it is all cleaned up.
The flares, mud flaps, rocker panels, front badge, front valences, rear valence, and rear garnish were sprayed with standard black using the gun that comes with the kit for a more coarse texture.
The front and rear bumper was sprayed using a modified 10$ Harbor Freight hvlp gun (drilled out to 2.0mm) for a more fine texture. Attempted to color match with the tintable version using classic silver paint. The color of course did not match perfectly, and I am not sure if I like the look or not. Will probably get used to it, but should have just went with black too. Oh well.
Also got too close to the rear garnish at one point and screwed up the finish lol (some globs in areas).
I can always respray if I ever get the motivation to do so!

Nice, thanks. Yeah, this one is challenging when there are no clear instructions given. I got it working last night and actually had 2 problems - the ground and I had one of the dongles in the wrong port. There are two of the same size, which I never noticed or saw mentioned anywhere.
The front camera plus switch looks awesome - I might attempt that at some point.

Nice! I lived in June Lake during the 1970s and 1980s.Went up to Mammoth over the weekend to check out the dusting. Good amount of snow! Was pretty cool to "see" white out conditions around Mono Lake

Damn! I have a 4Runner that I love but I really want a helicopter! I love those things. I've always said that if I hit the lottery, one of the first things I'd do is buy one and learn how to fly it. Nice!

Drove it 902 miles nonstop (except for fuel/restroom) AZ to OR.
First issue was tire pressure. TPS light came on, no flat tires. Stopped to check and all were 30 psi. This has happened before where I was "sure" I had them all at 35 (4-tire inflation hose) and I haven't been offroading. Anyway, paired them back up and kept on trucking. So this is twice now that all four are losing pressure equally.
The other issue was fuel. I was driving a route I've never been before. Following the GPS there was a turn from one highway to another "107 miles ahead". I figured I'd get fuel there. A minor detail, there's no town there. I have ¼ left on the fuel gauge. Dash says cruising range 103 miles (for example), GPS says next turn (shouldn't there be a town at every 20 miles in America?) is 123 miles. Ok, 20 mile buffer. Supposedly.
Rolling along at the speed limit of 70 mph, headwind, no other vehicles at all, no farms, no nothing. Including no cell service. Next turn (and hopefully gas) 60 miles. Cruising range 66 miles. Still no cell service to call AAA. I slow to 60 mph and my buffer begins increasing slightly. It increased to 10 miles.
I did get gas at a tiny c-store/diner/farm that has a single pump out front. This was 30 miles before my turn where there was a town.
The 4runner ran great. Dash shows 17.6 mpg with the tire pressure debacle.
Now which route to take back? On on vacation until Thanksgiving.
