I have Toyo Open Country A/T 3's 285/70r17's in the SL

Congrats on the new 4Runner! Very unique story by far, but glad it worked out for you and the family. Welcome to the club! (both the 4Runner and Heritage Blue club :LOL: )

I think mine usually displays 320 miles right after a fill up. I am on larger tires (285/70R17's). I pretty much always just go to Costco once a week to fill up, and I work from home most of the time, so not super concerned about MPG's. I can see how I would be more invested in it if I...

@hussch85 Found your ARB Roof Rack in SoCal!

Commenting to follow. On some songs, I get the same thing. After reading other peoples dealership experiences (including yours), I don't put a lot of faith in dealerships fixing anything unless its a recall, warranty or TSB item.

That actually looks really clean. I am usually not a huge fan of bull bars or brush bars, but that one is nice. How close does it get to the body panels/paint?

I really wanted to try the Rally Armour, but at $300+ for a set...thats a big ask for mud flaps. I think you can you get the TRD Pro versions, which are wider (not sure about longer) for $100something? The Ark ones seem interesting, but not sure if I like the shape of them.

I do like the idea of having them "just in case". We have been know to go to Ikea to just walk around, and end up with something rather large haha. If I don't notice a difference in noise at freeway speeds since taking them off this morning, I will give your method a shot of furthest away mounts.

I just removed mine to see if I can quiet down the ride at all. I can't say that I noticed wind noise coming from them specifically, but I am on a mission to get rid of as much noise as possible when it comes to wind noise, inside cabin rattles, etc... Plus, I will probably rarely ever need to...

The largest I have heard people putting in there is a 285/70r17, which are usually just a hair under 33". A 275/70r18's seems to be around 33.5", so it be a tight fit for sure. You could try and if you need a little extra room, just keep it a little deflated, then if you need it, just re-inflate it.

Beautiful pictures! I have been looking for places to drive and camp near me, so this is perfect timing.

I am looking for the same exact solution for a awning on the stock roof rails/cross bars. I really want to have an awning but don't want to buy a roof rack just to mount one.

Thank you! I am usually not near that area often, but I appreciate your offer. Perfect! I am more than willing to pitch in for it (you can keep it).

For plastics like the fenders, bumpers, etc... I ceramic coated mine while I was doing the rest of the car. For future care, once they start loosing the black, I highly recommend Solution Finish. It will make it look factory new again and lasts 1-2 years, then you can reapply as needed.

You can remove the red TRD letters, they just clip on.

This is one of the best write-ups I have ever seen. Made me someone who was casually interested in a roof rack + lighting to someone who's planning on seeing how much of this stuff will go on sale for Black Friday :LOL:

Another reason dealer service departments are only good for 2 things, warranty and recall work. I will do the rest myself or go to a trusted mechanic.

That makes total sense! I have lived in SoCal my whole life, never been off-roading, barely been camping and this is my first vehicle that I can go off-roading with, so I am stoked to be able to finally explore all that SoCal has to offer. Shoot, even just camping on the beach in the back with...

That would be a shame if that is true.

I would have to imagine trim shouldn't matter when it comes to QC. I feel like people think SR5 = cheapset so they care less vs TRD Pro = most expensive, so they take more time on them. I am sure the assembly lines are the same with the difference being what crap is installed/not installed. I...
