What did you do with your 4runner today?

Yeah, filled up as we left... filled up again when we got back.. did the math and checked it against the AVG gauge which was spot on.. Obviously I was babying it to try and save gas when accelerating and everything, but with gas over 4 dollars per gallon here now.. thats the only way to do it.
 
Finished my back up cam install. Mounting is temp till I make sure I'm happy with it.
Didn't put it on the tag because it's closer to the lift gate handle than I wanted. Also ran wiring for my rear lights, and ordered the rear light switch.

Yesterday was a big day for mine...Finally figured out why my lights were randomly being blown (glass in the socket & a good amount of exposed wiring getting wet), took the factory running boards off and put on some new black Westin Nerf Bars, switched over to Mobil 1 synthetic oil, got an alignment and (the part I'm most proud of) took off the old worn Yokohama tires and put on a set of Nitto Terra Grapplers (265/70/17) and used Daystar spacers to level the front up with the rear!! Truck is sitting pretty at almost 3 inches taller on the front and rides like she's damned near brand new again. Not bad at all for 196K+ miles.

Pics of the Terra Grapplers installed? I'm going to be running this size but haven't chosen the tire yet.

I like the location too! May just have to copy that!
 
Plasti dipped my Toyota emblem black again, and also plasti dipped the bottom part of my bumper under the grille. Can't decide if I like it or not.
