    Holy slipperiness this cut, polish, and coat is amazing. It's honestly above my expectations from a smoothness and clarity standpoint. Better than the day I bought it!
    If you are ever in need of serious correction or a ceramic coating look up #JoeyClean in the Minnesota area. Unbelievable work!
    I cannot believe this is the same truck that decided to go bushwacking down class II ATV trails. One wrong turn...lol

    Got the RRW V3 Sliders installed. Very impressed with how they sit on the truck and build quality. Working to fab up a little ramp for my dog to get up into the cab.

    Much much more to come...

    Dash cam install and recovery gear mounting day tomorrow. Very excited to have some legit video off road (with reactions...it's three channel.)

    I cannot put into words how rare this piece is that I've added to the 06V7 collection! I believe they don't have enough at ports to fulfill the Trail Special Edition 4Runners...

    Super high quality and I have good information it's a Yeti build...

    video walk around on my insta @that.toyotaguy

    I feel bad as some of those 4Runners are missing this. Those vehicles might get stuck with cement because a bunch of the green ones got sent out like a common part. My dealership has one held at port awaiting its cooler lol.

    Got a rare opportunity to run some of the forest roads in the UP as they didn't have four feet of snow yet. Really happy with the yellow light in the snow and definitely could use some more. Blizzak snow tires were absolute beasts. Never got me stuck and kept normal pressure (didn't air down)

    Fast forward to 2:11, as the first turn headed me towards a bog I didn't want to get involved with. I'll post up some day time videos as well. Very impressed with the Vanture N4 3 channel dash cam I have installed. Don't uses the in cabin channel much but its a nice feature.

    I'll make sure to get pictures added soon of said new toys but shaking a few things up!

    Moving my Baja Design Squadron Sport "fogs" to my ditch brackets to accompany the Squadron Pros that are already there. Still debating about doing some white spot lenses or the amber wide that are already on their. My pros have the spot/wide amber driving combo and I love it!

    Diode Dynamics SS3 MAX amber fogs going down low. Pretty pumped to get these installed.

    Vantrue N4 3 channel dash cam and Valentine One hardwired installed, floating radar detector mount is amazing!

    Getting ready to order some wheels for the 35x12.5 KM3s that I have. Trying to lose the spacers I have on the factory wheels and still maintain a light weight wheel. So far top contenders are Method and RRW...stay tuned.

    Do I commit to a high clearance full front bumper or get one of the lo-pro ones? I really would like to get a winch installed and debating about even just getting the hidden winch mount that is available.

    Headed to the UP of Michigan again soon and should be a bunch more snow to play in!...maybe too much.

    Blizzak DMV2s are still proving to be an amazing snow tire. Both at speed and in the snow / hardpack / ice these are very sure footed tires. Curious how the E load variety would be as its almost too soft of a tire for my travels a lot of the time. Its -10 to -20 this week and still had great grip

    I was lucky enough to find this on eBay through some dealership in Chicago that had ordered a bunch before Toyota put parts restrictions on them. I can't believe that one of our Trail Edition army green 4Runners came into my dealership with a cement cooler in it due to lack of inventory on the army green ones. If I was a betting man I believe there was a little bickering between Toyota and Yeti hence the lack of branding and inventory on said coolers.

    I could imagine a couple of these popping on eBay again as people may not want theirs...maybe?

    Elmhurst? I've probably called 50x dealers across North America and Elmhurst was the only one let me ordered then told me they don't know when they'll restock.

    yep. They were pretty high and mighty about what they had. tried to flex on me like maybe we should mark it up?

    Most fascinating thing about the transaction is I call the actual Elmhurst dealership and there's none to be had. Only on their online store at first I thought it was a scam because of that info and then they got a bit defensive lol.

    If you ever want to sell it, let me know.

    Wife wants it for her 4runner pro, and I've been scouring state by state, province by province, no one can order them for me.

    I got you on the first dibs list. @Downytide

    Diode Dynamics SS3 Max Fogs are installed. Excited to shoot some pics and video of the lighting area change compared to the wide cornering lights I had previously.

    Reinforcement hardware coming for the sliders as well as close to pulling the trigger on some wheels for the KM3s sitting in the garage.

    BIG UPDATES!

    Wheels have been ordered (waiting for the bill to show up) and show be here in as little as three days?!?

    I will be traveling back to the UP of Michigan next week to find some snow and serenity. I ski Mt Bohemia which is arguably one of my favorite places currently, despite their snow drought this year.

    I'll post up some pics of the wheels which will get ceramically coated and then mounted with the KM3s.

    The tires are significantly heavier than factory so there's that. Definitely some noise as well. A good sound system makes the M/T hum very manageable.

    The upper control arms are amazing. Its a very noticeable difference in steering feedback and doesn't wander a bit like it did with the factory. Every thing feels very solid. Very well behaved with the UCAs.

    I have had the KM3s on last year and they were great on my factory Pro wheels. These Black Rhinos are a better offset so I don't need to run spacers like I did for clearance on the factory pro wheels with a lower offset. Similar wheel weights surprisingly between the Rhinos and the Pro factory wheels.

    I like those UCAs, do they tell you how often you have to grease the heim joints?

    Recommended service interval is every 5k or so. I will probably do a service at the end of summer and one at the end of winter.

    I'm still in awe at how much better behaved steering is with these. Didn't think it was going to be as drastic but definitely a game changer. Make you want to do some drifting lol
