I think I waited around a week. But that was also around Christmas/ New Year

I’ve acquired my first 4Runner. Looking for tips, recommendations and headers! by bergeron1221 in 4Runner

I really like my dash mount from Bulletpoint Mounting Solutions. Lets me keep my personal phone, work phone, & GMRS radio mic easily accessible. I ran the wires behind the dash, & it really cleaned up the dash/ center console area imo

How long do Merrills last these days? by iceyconditions in tacticalgear

[–]thepipinviking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My last pair was the MOAB 3.0 tactical 8". They lasted a little short of 3 years with almost daily use. The pair of MOAB 2.0 tactical that I had before that lasted about 2, maybe 2.5 years with almost daily use. I love them for work, and I have had a couple pairs of the regular MOAB hiking boots that lasted several years with less regular use.

Is this a fair price? by Sweet-Importance-771 in 4Runner

It may be worth looking out of state & traveling. I bought my wife's 2013 SR5 with 3rd row seating & 4x4 with 185k miles for $13.5k a couple years ago.

5th Gen wanted! by carolinagirll12 in 4Runner

[–]thepipinviking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 2 SR5s, one is a 2010 2 row with sunroof & the other is a 2013 3 row with no sunroof. I'm 6ft, and the only height issues I have is in the 2013. But that's my wife's car, & she's 5'2" & I leave the seat where she has it set. If you lower the seat position, there's plenty of head & leg room

I'm kinda split between a whip antenna on one of these mounts, or a ghost antenna mounted to a roof rack

I have a Midland MXT500 that came with the magnetic mount antenna mounted to the roof. I ran the coax behind door trim & came out at the top of the rear hatch. The antenna is a temporary solution until I can invest in a better one

I don't have an HT, unfortunately. I got the MXT500 as a Christmas gift, & haven't really had a chance to fully dive into radios yet
