Is yours a real Pro or a faux Pro?

I ask because the color & emblems suggest “real” but the hood scoop and roof rails seem not.

It's a real Pro. 2015 the first year of the Pros, they came with the body colored hood scoop and your standard 4Runner roof rack. The previous owner swapped out the silver rails for black.
 
Finished up my drawer system. Pulled it out and coated the entire thing in bed liner. I also added this small table and stained it and finished it off with polyurethane. Made some minor tweaks from my initial design and super happy with how it came out.

I sat in the driver's seat crying all by myself thinking there may never be a 6th-gen 4Runner. I think it's over. :pout:

I heard rumor that a lot of people told Toyota that if there is no V-6 option for the 6th Gen that they won’t buy it. I know I made that clear to Toyota. I have zero interest in a V-4 Turbo. Turbos increase chances of maintenance issues and dramatically increases repair cost. The reason many people love the 4Runner is because the engine and transmission is basic, simple and reliable.

California is trying to force auto manufacturers into selling V-4 only to improve fuel efficiency. They also know that their policies will be forced on the rest of the US because they are the biggest car market and companies like Toyota makes their cars compliant for all 50 states.

Toyota doesn't care. The dealers especially don't care. They'll still sell a million of them. Everyone always gets up in arms when a new generation comes out. And then they drive it.

I also really hope you told them you didn't want a V-4 turbo to really hammer your point across.

Don't worry, it wont be a "V4" .
4 cylinders?... Most likely but not in a "V".
 
Dropped off my bumper for powder coat, big things about to come together.
Now im at do I install my lift before I install my bumper and winch first or the other way around?
 
Looks great! Is that an Exped Megamat I spy? They are the shiz


Thanks! And yes it is. The “medium double” size is 41” x 72” which is the perfect dimensions for a 4Runner as well as my gfs Subaru Outback! I’m lucky I got a spanking deal on mine because these things are pricey!

May as well start posting or I'll never get my post count to a place where I can actually start thread...

Found an Expedition Essentials dash mount hanging around a local shop, so I installed that and some ram mount bits and pieces I had laying around for holding phones (my phone does not do android auto, so I wanted to conveniently see my phone screen for navigation).

Is it a perfect solution, in my opinion; no. I was going to get the Lab Ops Gear one for its integrated design. But I can't really complain about the one I ended up with.

No doubt. I used a gift cert to REI towards my XL Double Megamat and it still hurt. But man, it was a game changer for us in the trailer. I actually like it more than my mattress at home, no lie

We bit the bullet a couple years ago and bough three (3!!) Megamat 10 XLs during the REI semi-annual sale. They basically fill up the floor of our Gazelle 4 person tent. a Wyoming king fitted sheet fits around all 3. It's has basically been life changing for going camping with a 4 person family in a single tent!
 
I washed it :)

Other than 5100s and some JBA UCAs, it’s still stock. I told myself I wouldn’t spend much money on it until I paid it off. Well, I paid it off 3 months ago so now the fun begins.
