This is from my first majority highway trip with he 255/80's. Mostly two lane mountain roads with speeds varying between 45-70mph. A little bit of snow but didn't use 4WD. Untitled by redrunner87, on Flickr Untitled by redrunner87, on Flickr

Did an oil change today and forgot to grab a sample for Blackstone Labs. Ran Amsoil again and K&N Oil Filter(it's all Walmart had). I got around to upgrading to the Metal Filter Canister. Untitled by redrunner87, on Flickr Untitled by redrunner87, on Flickr

Rainbow Falls/Rampart Rd. I went to a local Overland Meet Up and a few of us decided to do a "quick" run through Rainbow Falls. This trail is mostly a fire road but had some decent snowfall on Thursday night. The Group(minus the 5 lug Taco): Untitled by redrunner87, on Flickr For the most...

255/80 Falken WildPeak AT3W's have been installed. Here are some comparison pictures vs stock size. I am running stock suspension and I do rub a little at full lock and going over bumps. Stock Untitled by redrunner87, on Flickr 255's Untitled by redrunner87, on Flickr Stock Untitled by...

Got new shoes put on. I will get better pictures in the morning. Untitled by redrunner87, on Flickr

Yes there is that. I wish they kept the V8(maybe 4.6 like the GX460) in the 5th Gens. Would be so nice on the trails or when you put a lift on them. The 4.0 isn't terrible but I am all stock. It climbs hills, sometimes I just lock out 5th gear. However the hills with wind are an absolute...

I can't think of anything major for the 5th gens. The drivetrain is the exact same for the 4th Gens as the 5th Gens.

2010 to Present is all 5th Gens. 2014 received a "refresh", basically new styling of the front and rear end. The 2003 to Present are basically the same drivetrain, all have the 4.0/5-speed auto. 1st Gen: 1985-1989 Removable Top and 2 doors. Solid Axle was only in 1985, IFS started in 1986 2nd...

I love the OG Trail Editions! I would trade my 16(post-facelift) SR5 in for an OG 5th Gen Trail. The 4.0 and 5-speed are pretty bullet proof. I have heard of 5th gens running up and over 200K miles on them without any major fixes. I am at 85K on my 16' SR5 and no major repairs at all. The 4.0...

The last parts to finish up Phase 1 of the build. I decided to try Rust-oleum Peel Coat in Graphite instead of Plasti-dip. I guess we will see how it compares. LED Headlights and LED DRL/Highs as well. Untitled by redrunner87, on Flickr

First Blackstone Oil Analysis has been done. The oil used was Amsoil O.E. OW-20 @ 10,995 miles. I did an Amsoil Engine Flush right before this oil change. Here are the results: 4Runner Oil 1 by redrunner87, on Flickr
