5th gen 4Runners in scenic locations

Thats freeking cool!!

 

Northern Michigan ✋️

 

Pure Michigan! Love it.

 

Skyline Drive

 

And our high dollar homeless encampment

 

Pre-lift

 

Awesome! I was telling my folks that my dog and I may live out of our 4Runner for a year or two to do some exploring. She said, “Oh no, I don’t want to think of you being homeless “. I said, “It’s only called homeless if you have a crappy car, if you have a nice vehicle it’s called overlanding.”

 

And the top of Calico Mountain, from my past life in the Wireless industry

 

Headed to the mountains last night for some customary New Year's Eve sledding fun, we brought our own lighting solution.


Finally got new tires a few months ago, Toyo Open Country AT IIIs. Stock size and the p-series version, so far so good. Smooth, quiet, grippy, and etc.

 

For several years, I was invited to a sledding/fireworks/bonfire in the pass out of town. One biologist was licensed to blow up beaver dams; two brewed their own beer; one made wine; several minor injuries each year. Homemade sleds, homemade fireworks, homebrew just didn't seem like a wise celebration. Discretion won out and we stayed home (we are in our 70s)

 

Off Road first time in Citrus WMA Florida

 

That’s cool, I should bring mine over there to get more off reading. Been over there hiking before.

 

Great views … hope to get out to the west in 4Runner in near future.

 

Went skiing at Arizona Snowbowl. A lot of snow and a few cars got stuck. My first time with the 4R in the snow and it handled really well. Did not struggle even a little bit. Went on the side of the road and couldn’t get stuck unless I put it in 2WD.

also had some fun drifting in 2WD in an empty parking lot at the end of the day

 

My daughter lives in Flag and is always envious of my '19 SR5!

 

I heard a youtuber recently who kept referring to it as, "Flag". I'd never heard anyone shorten Flagstaff. Is that a pretty common way to call the town? When I moved here to Colorado Springs, my daughter immediately informed me that nobody who lives here calls it that, the locals simply call it, "The Springs". My youngest daughter lives in Albuquerque. Now that's a town that could use a shorter name.

 

Devils Playground, Pikes Peak , CO, USA

 

Welcome to the forum! Driving up Pikes Peak is one of my favorite ways to spend a morning. The donuts at the top are not half bad either.

 

ABQ, no?

 

When I moved to Utah I had a couple of the locals tell me to not tell others about it. There were enough people here already. I say come on. A lot of beautiful scenery in the west. I hope to get to Canada in the future.

 

Jedi5150, I live in Silver City, NM area. That’s about 225 miles south of Albuquerque and right above the Mexican border. It’s a small town where as Albuquerque is a big city and getting bigger.

 

Some around here say Burque. I've heard Flag before.

 

Went out to my dad's place to plow his drive so his Rav4 could get out...

 

"Luck don't live out here. Wolves don't kill the unlucky deer; they kill the weak ones..." Jeremy Renner in Wind River

Hmmmmmmm......... That goes against Heisenberg's Principle, Murphy's Law (as it is actually written), Dawkin's Selfish Gene. A deer with good genetics could be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Biologists refer to that as "Demonic Guidance or Demonic Interference". If luck didn't play a factor, then there would not be roadkill.

 

Yes people in Arizona refer to flagstaff as flag.

 

Not from Flag but my daughter lives there. I spent enough time bouncing around the Mojave in my youth (as a reptile collector).

 

Not a bad 666 post if I do say so myself haha

 

24 hrs

 

I’m from NorCal too rock on, any good trails in our neck of the woods ?
