    pretty much stock, very minor upgrades plus tires
    I dont get it at all. I think the 2 door SUV is rather ugly. I dont get the hype or style at all. But congrats if thats what your in too and that your style.

    Manual transfer case. No fair. And this may be a stupid question but what's up with the sub button? I'm guessing a powered amp that you can turn on and off?

    Thanks everyone. Im glad I'm not getting flamed for being a traitor. Lol. I'm pretty serious about not offroading this thing as I have in the past, puts too much strain on a pricey vehicle. I hope to pay some bills off this year and set myself up to return to offroading next year with a dedicated trail rig. You guys may be right about the mods though, I'm already searching for ways to make it mine, nothing big tho. I'm definitely gonna get some stock size ATs cuz they stocks suck! I'll bring my new wheels over, throw some LEDS on the dome lights and license plate lights....just a handful of little stuff. No Lift or bigger tires for sure though.

    Your right about getting a 4x and not using it all that much. I'll probably take it out a couple times a year, and alot during the winter, but probably not as much as one would deem ideal. Although I won't be rock crawling or living in an area where snowfall is common, I love knowing that my 4x, locked, fj on all terrains will have no problems getting through any hairy situations I may encounter.

    Mojaves will come when i get some money for the bfg tires. Stock rims are 17s and my mojaves are 16s so I gotta buy new rubber for them.

    You can probably sell the set pretty easy and get some rubber since that is all you need. What are the stock tires?

    Some crappy dunlops. They look like slicks. LOL


    Actually it does great at picking up groceries, much better than my taco. They stay secure in a confined 2 foot area rather than a 6 foot bed. Plus it has hooks to hold the bags. LOL.

    Dude read the whole thread. I was kidding about the 2wd joke. Calm down.
