What have you done to your 5th Gen 4Runner today?

sorry to hear. Did that a couple months ago.

 

Finally swapped the 14 year old spare for a proper tire.

 

If that tire was 14 yrs old, it’s a good thing you were never in a situation where you had to use it!
More than likely it would have gone to pieces in 5 mi or less!

6 yr life span on tires.

 

I am mistaken. It's close to 15 years old-September 2010. Yes, it should have been replaced long ago.

 

I had one that was 10 and freaked when I read the code.

 

The texture of the tire is very odd. Driest tire I have felt.

 

Saker is correct. On my 13, right before the 10 year mark I had a flat and went to use the spare and it was basically not salvageable. So ended up having a friend pick me and the flat up to get it fixed. It then got traded pretty much right after, so I didn't buy a new spare. But now its noted in my memory so will monitor that going forward on my 23.

 

Do you need Sliders? Or are these steps made with only one step?

 

Yeah I usually trade by 4yrs due to getting close to 90k miles on vehicles since 1986. Now because I work from home it maybe different on years I keep this one. New 20-Nov-23 in the garage currently it has 8,752 miles TSN. May change if I accept a position that would require commute I believe under 50 mi 1 way. I probably will buy a commuter car just to keep the miles down on this??Have to see what they offer.
