What did you do to your 6th Gen 4Runner today?? 👨🏻‍🔧 🧰 🛠

Doesn't sound like that Toyota dealership is any good. First, they caused damage to your vehicle from negligence. Then, they tried to weasel out of fixing everything that was damaged. They would have completely lost my trust. Do you have other choices for Toyota dealerships nearby? If so, I suggest to you, after the dealership fixes what they broke, that you take your future business to another Toyota dealership.

So just some context. I considered going to Flynn's Tire for the tire dismount and remount onto the new wheels. Except, they tend to use 4 different jacks and lift the car and do their thing, which I'm not a big fan of. The cost would have been very similar and like most of us, we assume the dealer will do a better job, thus my trip the dealer.

Typically I do all the regular maintenance on my vehicles, except I don't have the equipment to mount the tires. Going forward, I will not be going to this dealer for any work.

Quick and easy hood lighting installation for added convenience when the need arises.

I like the hood lighting. I see that you also installed hood lift struts and the SXTH Cold Air Intake. Nice!

Got my Limited back after getting full front PPF (10 yr warranty) and ceramic coating (8 yr warranty). Came out great and well worth the slightly less than $2k. I’ll get a better idea of how well they applied the ceramic coat the next time I wash the truck.

Did the 1st oil and filter change at 2480 miles and sent a sample to Blackstone Labs. There was slightly more than 6 quarts total that came out after draining the oil pan and the filter side. Will do it again at 5k miles and then every 5k after that.

Is it normal for the oil to be that dark after only 2500 miles?

Looks exactly like mine. Same Heritage Blue, Limited Hybrid.

Love the color. Came from Ford’s cactus grey color which is one of my favorites too. Now thinking about adding bronze wheels…like the Trailhunter wheels. Think it’d look perfect. Do like the OEM Limited wheels. It’s just the +55 offset that baffles me. Don’t understand that Toyota decision.

Relocated the Wolfbox bumper cam from the grille to tucked below the bumper, getting much better terrain coverage with the lower mount position.

Thanks for the idea! I have mine mounted ON the bumper just below and behind the license plate but I've had it hit snow piles on the trail. I think your solution is better and I'm going to look at doing it this weekend (along with repositioning the rear camera under the car and mounting the wolfbox mirror on the dash/replacing my OEM digital camera which is better as a rear view mirror/camera than the wolfbox - but does not record!).
