    I wanted a bit more wire length so I went to Ace hardware and extended the length but other than that I love it

    I have two batteries, I would love to see the voltage on both, how do you wire the secondary battery so that the display shuts off when you turn off the key?
    Relay switch?
    Thanks

    i have it directly connected to the battery and it’s monitoring the voltage at all times but it draws very little current so I didn’t add a switch to turn it off. I have left the 4R for a week in the garage without driving it and it didn’t drain the battery or anything. Started right up. If I were to go without driving for a couple months (unlikely) I can easily unplug the white connections in 5 seconds (which is one of the reasons I added length to the wires).
    also it already comes with a fuse for each battery so it’s a very simple install.

    With that said, if you wanted to use a switch it is possible. Someone did it

    Blacked out badges, window deflectors, smoked 3rd brake light. I have a Borla muffler on order as well as some color matched engine cover stickers. I'll be painting the stock wheels soon as well. Falken tires in the fall as well.

    Regardless of how little draw it it takes, I think it would annoy me. Like the idea though.

    Kinda reminds me when Lunar Rock was released. In the right light,it looked grey. Other times, it looks green.

    The red/orange has same effect in my opinion. I like it personally. Though I wish Toyota would bring back the BRIGHT red they had on the Tacos in the late 90s early 2000s.

    Finally got around and installed the Desert Does It seat jackers (front and back). Had these in my old Taco. It really does make a world of difference in how the seat feels.

    Put the 1 inch spacer on rear of both seats.

    And finally got a decent photo of where I changed out the puddle lights to LEDs.

    It’s way way way more orange than red for sure. Every picture/video you see will look red until you physically stand in front of it and then you go “oh shit, it’s actually really REALLY orange and not red at all”. the metallic flake shows up in the sun but in the shade it looks way more like a flat glossy orange.

    Nothing too dramatic today. I ordered a new center cap off Amazon. It is OEM. Got 2 (thinking I was ordering just one). The ring on the back was missing and why the original one wouldn't pop on (long story on that). New one popped right on.

    So things seem right in the world again. If just for a short while.

    Love that color! If I had to choose between MGM and Solar Octane, I'd have a difficult time! But I have black, and she is just fine :)

    Good eye! Yes that's them, they are fantastic. Takes about 10 seconds to remove the awning. I have them locked with long pad lock shackle instead of the clips it comes with.

    Those look beefy! What do the measure under the weight of the 4runner?

    With the aggressive and deep tread did you notice a decrease in performance or mpg?

    What do ya mean measure?

    No decrease in performance or MPG, but I've had 285's since essentially new so gas milage was already crappy, about 15mpg.

    They are very quiet and smooth however as they are an A/T

    Overall height of the tire when mounted and installed. I heard the mickeys run large compared to most other 285s
