The whole rig weighed about 300 lbs. no wonder you went to a different game and PVC.
Happy New Year

Happy New Year to both of you! Tether Ball out...Ladder Ball in!

It's not Ladder Ball. We call that game, "Testicle Toss".

What a sweet looking kitty!
Looks like the inside of an FJ!
I think I remember you saying the kitty litter box was going in the underbed area. Let me know how that goes for ya. I've got a small box in the bathroom for Lucy. We've spent two nights out there already and she peed outside the box, which is what I expected. It's a small one and she's old and doesn't get around very well. As far as she was concerned, she was IN the box, which is true. Fortunately I can hose the area off with the showerhead. So, I'll probably just keep it in there, but I am curious about other methods those traveling with cats will be/are using.
Or maybe that area was for her to hide out in. I don't remember, obviously!

It is the inside of an FJ. Bonus points if you can figure out the year and model.
I'm going to try the litter through the hatch at the front and a cat bed near his access on the 45. I'll let you know how that goes. He's very good with litter so I don't expect any issues.

Is obviously the Trail Teams edition. Year is more challenging, but my guess would be 2012 or 2013.

It's the 2014. I think they only used this seat colour in the 2014 and the cement grey TT.

DUH! I didn't even notice the badge on the glovebox. I just recognized the interior (I have a 2010).
My answer would be 2013. Wrong color for the 2012.

According to this site, it had a different badge for the 2014. I really like the color they used that year. Although Voodoo Blue is my absolute favorite of all of their colors, but it was discontinued for the 2010 so I went with Brick Red.

Well, pooey on Toyota for slighting the Canadians!
Yeah, I didn't think the seats were the correct color. So, what's the outside color? The blue then?

We just got different options than south of the border. It all worked out.
Yes, it's blue. I'm upgrading to an Escape from my rooftop accommodations. A big leap forward in comfort.
