Pheasant

Got into some pheasants in Fallsville Wildlife Area on opening day. This is how I found the dead pheasant on the ground after I shot it.

Does the 2010-2012 4Runner Trail kick ass?

Off Road Capability

• It ran the Rubicon and the Baja
• It won the 2010 Four Wheeler Magazine Four Wheeler of the Year
• Consistently lands in the top 10 most off road capable vehicle you can buy
• It's inherited the sweet off road systems from the $80k Toyota Land Cruiser.
• Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (KDSS) =  Electronically manages the stabilizer bars through hydraulic cylinders and links at the points where the stabilizer bars would otherwise conventionally bolt to the suspension.  KDSS manages the roll stiffness of the suspension so that during on-road driving the body roll is minimized, and so that off-road it can be loosened to allow as much wheel articulation as possible.
• CRAWL Control = electro-mechanical system that controls the speed of the vehicle while minimizing the load on drivetrain components in technical, low range situations. Think of it as cruise control for rock crawling.  Vehicle automates both brakes and throttle.
• Multi-Terrain Select = system which is similar to Land Rover's Terrain Response and allows the driver to fine-tune vehicle performance to match the terrain. In mud or sand, wheel slip is allowed to work in the vehicle's favor. On rocks or in bumpy terrain, the system operates more like a limited slip, minimizing wheel slip for maximum traction.
• A-TRAC is now standard equipment on all 4x4 4Runners and can distribute power to just one wheel with traction, ensuring that the 4Runner can keep going.
• Locking rear differential
• Increased approach and departure angles, higher ground clearance, and a unique wheel and tire package targeted at those who intend to use their 4Runner in the dirt.
• Frame based SUV

Cool Factor

• Sporty looks.  The Trail-grade models can be distinguished from other 4Runners by a hood scoop, different front and rear fascia styling, and smoked lenses on the headlight and tail lamps.
• Water resistant seats
• Windshield wiper and mirror de-icer
• Power rear window
• AC/DC adapters in front and rear of vehicle
• Party Mode speakers for tailgating
• Moon roof
• Display Audio with Navigation and Entune - Includes 6.1-in. Touch-Screen w/ Integrated Backup Camera Display, AM/FM/CD Player w/ MP3/WMA Playback Capability, Eight Speakers, SiriusXM Sat Radio Capability (90 day trial), HD Radio w/ iTunes Tagging, Aux Audio Jack, USB Port w/ iPod Connectivity and Control, Vehicle Info, Hands-Free Phone Capability, Phone Book Access, and Music Streaming via Bluetooth

Practicality

• Very high reliability ratings
• Top gas mileage SUV in it's class
• Towing package
• Fold flat seats
• Sliding rear cargo deck
• Abundant interior room
• "Steers, turns, and rides like a car based cross over"
