All the time. No need to ever take it off.
Thanks for the opportunity and patience im glad they are working out for you in your Landcruiser.
Filled in one of my sweet tailgate cubbies with a small first aid kit, knives, flashlights, and a bag that holds all of my trailer hookup supplies. Loving the tailgate! Next for some Molle seatback panels that I can put over one of the 3rd row seats to hold the rest of my recovery gear!
A productive day for prepping the Land Cruiser for Alaska. I sorted out the roof rack configuration. We were lucky last trip with mosquitoes but decided to take a screened gazebo. I have a box up top for winter clothing and a Campfire in a can.
One third of a Bug Out Rack was perfect to mount a Power tank and shovel.

Mounted my long handled shove on the roof rack. Easy to get to and out the way.
I was able to use some bits and pieces I had laying around the garage. I love doing a project and I can use what I have on hand. Makes saving them so much easier to justify.

New tires today Nitto Terra Grappler G2 285/60/18 120 load index. Factory tires pulled off with 44K miles look like they could do another 5 to 9k miles.
Definitely a good idea for Alaska.
Completed my single drawer install. Lowes #541726 70qt.
Length is perfect, fits with second row all the way back and reclined.

Convenient, I had a loose storage box in the back of my 200 for a long time. I always wondered how safe it would be in an accident though.
No less safe than the random overstuffed box I had previously. I have certainly considered making a cage for the luggage area since I do have a kid back there occasionally.
This is really a test to see if if need to get a real drawer.
Had a new windshield installed today. I dug in with State Farm, and they agreed to get me an OEM windshield.
This is mostly a PSA, as I pulled the wipers and big cowl plastic piece last night. I was shocked at how much accumulated crap there was under there, especially at the hood hinges. Pine needles, leaves, dirt... yucky stuff. And this truck has been parked in a garage all it's life, not out in the open. So it might be something that might go on the annual maintenance ritual, if you have one. It's not hard to get it off, you do need to pull the side pieces that gasket to the edge of the hood, then a couple of plastic screw fittings and it pops right off (after you remove the wipers).
Then you get to see the poorly designed fresh air intake for the HVAC system. You can actually look right down on the cabin air filter, unobstructed. Trying to come up with some sort of baffle that makes me feel better, before I put the thing back on.

Love those tires.
Got rid of the random POS generic floor mats she came with and upgraded to Weathertechs! Always love these things!
Installed sliders after work today.
