The very first thing most of us do with our 100s is buy them.
Not me!
While I was in the airport last Friday, waiting on my plane to Phoenix (to buy the 100) I used my phone to purchase a 4X4 Labs rear bumper with two swing outs.
Changed the oil (Pennzoil Platinum 5W-30 and a Yota filter) after getting it home.
Did my first drain/re-fill of the transmission with Mobil 1 tonight. Will do 4 or 5 more over the next few thousand miles (I subscribe to the slow transmission flush vs the all at once method).
UPS also just brought me a bunch of Mobil 1 75W-90 gear oil...both diffs and the TC will get changed this weekend.
Truck has a new steering rack, so won't need to do any PS fluid flushing for now. Also has a new WP and radiator...so probably won't mess with the coolant for now. EDIT: I don't really know what is in there....so bought Toyota Red and will flush, flush, flush...then put the red back in.
New air filter also on the way.
Hope to lube the u-joints and slip yokes this weekend, as well.
Gotta make sure the cruiser is feeling the love!
Yeah, I know...without pics it didn't happen.

Nothing exciting. Just a detail.
Yesterday I had the Toyota dealership replace the front and rear brake pads and the rotors turned. The power steering fluid, front and rear differentials and transfer case fluid changed. New CV boot on the passenger front and a set of wipers put on. Cost me $339.74 
^^^ That's not even enough for the parts cost. How did you get away with that price? @e34croak
@BimmerFreak That is a sweet looking 911 (996) in your garage, could you show and tell?

My girlfriend gets employee pricing at all other manufacturers of the conglomerate of dealers she works for. Timing belt, water pump. cam seals, crank seal and all radiator hoses was $473. I literally couldn't even buy OEM parts for that. I'm at that point in life with work and activities it's easier and makes more sense financially to just have the work performed at the Toyota dealership.
4 ft fire stick and driver side labrak rear mount
At least you got a crimson fire stick to balance out that auburn sticker.
I did it to keep Bama fire starters away.
That dude was a card carrying fambly member. Plus, Ole Harvey is from your neck of the woods, so we cant get blamed for him either!

I have these saved in my amazon wish list. How well do they work?

Funny you should ask, I just went and aimed them. Just headlights and then LED's on.
Damn, there are knock-offs and there are Chinese carbon copies. Disappointed with the market as of late. Innovation as of late comes down to changing a color and a logo (see all of the new RTT offerings that are nothing more than new logo on an old design, a half dozen in the last few months alone) and those lights couldn't even accomplish that. And your comments at lunch are right Corey... I do think they are lame. #noroomontheseshelvesforknockoffs
PS, that new purse is in for your wife.

Fit and finish on these it def. subpar. One of the lens protectors was very loose, I had to put a dab of silicon on it to keep it from moving. It does crack me up that the "LED" logo is the same font and red box as ARB's. I would be interested to open them up and see how the guts compare to the ARB Intensity lights.
Oh I've seen them firsthand at SEMA over the years, definitely not the "same manufacture as XYZ" as we hear with roof top tents all the time lol.
So about the Chanel handbag, would you like that gift wrapped?

Well that answers that. Removed from my list!
