I got a 1-day pass and I'll be there all day tomorrow (Friday)

Hope to see some other 6th Gen folks around...
I'll be monitoring GMRS Channel 16 (462.575Mhz) / FRS Channel 16
This post is based on my real-world experience and my specific use case. All photos are mine, and my goal is simply to share my experience with the 4Runner6G community. I just returned from a 10-day road trip on Vancouver Island using this system every day, which is what solidified my...
It's the Blue Sea Systems 12v power panel. I use it to monitor starter battery voltage on its OLED display, and to add some additional 12V/USB charging ports in the rear cargo area. You can read more about it here...
No issues with the the 800W Alternator Charger drawing down the starter battery. It just gets charged by the alternator (or DC-DC Converter) when the engine is running and doesn't have any draw when the engine is turned off. You can also set a trigger voltage in the EcoFlow app (the starter...
In a previous post, I described how I built my 2025 TRD Off-Road Premium iForceMAX 4Runner to be a self-sufficient adventure vehicle for extended, multi-day camping and overland/off-roading trips. I equipped it with a Dometic CFX3 45 Electric Cooler which runs off 12v DC, along with other 12v...
I carry the ProCase Tactical Molle Pouch with all of my essential tools. It fits perfectly in the rear storage tray on the hybrid 4Runners.

@bobholthaus - he would definitely produce that plate for you. Just contact Phil at Offroad Toy Outfitters (https://offroadtoyoutfitters.com/). The plate for the wiring bus piggy backs off this mounting bracket for the ARB twin motor air compressor...
Sure. Here are a couple of photos of the SwitchPros control module mounted to my SDHQ 12v power relocation bracket (https://sdhqoffroad.com/products/25-4runner-sdhq-built-under-hood-power-solution-kit) which sits over the master brake cylinder.
Here's where all of my accessories terminate in...
I used the one that came with it. FIt perfectly and mounts directly against the vertical T-slot on the crossbar. Just consider the front-to-back crossbar placement during the install.
The rear hatch ladder is surprisingly light, and I haven't notices any problems with the power liftgate. Doesn't seem to strain, moves, smoothly, etc.
I took a couple of pictures to show you how my ladder and RTT line up when the rear hatch is open. I definitely planned the RTT install to...
Hi M&M,
I really don't think you need to worry too much. The rubber feet sit behind the aluminum side rail, so they are shielded from direct sunlight and potential UV damage. I'm sure they're rugged enough to withstand high ambient temperatures within the ranges you'd experience. Hope that...
My mods (excluding the bike rack) add about 500lbs to the gross vehicle weight. With that weight and the aerodynamic hit from the RTT, I'm getting between 18-20mpg with my average over the last 5 tanks of gas averaging 18.6mpg.
Thanks @HVLA. Regarding your questions:
1. I haven't tracked it, but it's probably more than I'd care to admit. 😳
2. No YouTube channel. Maybe some day...
One year ago, I took delivery of my 2025 Toyota 4Runner TRD Off-Road Premium iForceMAX. It was one of the first 50 6th Gens to arrive at the Port of Portland, and I was psyched! I’d done the research and had my dealer (Columbia Gorge Toyota in The Dalles) place a factory reservation for the...
I installed the CBI Super Stock Covert Recovery Bumper on my TRD ORP hybrid and I've been really happy with it. Total install time (including the WARN EVO 10-S) was about 4.5 hrs, and the hardest/scariest part was just cutting and finishing the edge of the plastic bumper cutout.
I found this...
You really can't go wrong with the Sherpa. I considered both the Westcott and the Sherpa, and I'm glad I went with the Capital rack. The fit is solid, installation was easy, and there is very little wind noise. Mine has held up great and I have no regrets.
I actually ended up going with the CBI Super Stock Covert bumper with a set of Baja Designs S2 Pro fogs and a WARN EVO 10k winch, and I'm really happy with it. Here's a quick iPhone pic:
