    Seriously, do people not realize that baby trailer tires are only rated for certain speeds? People have been tailgating me all day like I'm doing 70 just for my health

    I've never towed but figured as much, plus just general safety with a trailer behind you. I've only hauled my tractor in the bed of my truck and even that I'm cautious as hell with.

    It's fun. The FJ is capable but it's a learning curve for sure. I'm used to a longer wheel base
    The blue ones are cute. Mine is evil

    :rofl:

    It's a ton of fun! I'm wheeling behind a Suzuki on some blue trails today. Learning the ways of the 6MT

    I'm pretty sure moving violations with a trailer carry a big penalty too

    Alex are those the 255's from your 4runner? Seems those might work on a stock suspension FJ according to the interwebs...

    Rob, you live a mile away from me, yet I always seem to run into you 15 miles away from home. Did you see that Tundra with the huge chrome rims and the spoiler?

    They definitely do, plus DOT frowns especially upon such no-nos..

    Yeah no thank you. My dealership did the Boston motorcycle expo. I had to ride with my boss a the box truck pulling a 22' trailer. I just closed my eyes most of the time

    Is there no love for 35' bumper to bumper, 12'6" high, and 8' wide? And mine is a standard shift! Going to Allston on Monday. :)

    Learned a LOT about wheeling with a manual today. Did quite well, ran blues all day!

    FJ got out of the park with minor pin striping and some rash on one wheel. Can't complain!

    I love my new truck but miss my Tacoma
    I know ha. I work right down the street and my parents live in Attleboro. We went there looking for a new hose for my parents pressure washer. Believe it or not Harbor freight does not carry them. We had to go to Home Depot. I didn't see the Tundra I was too concerned about my dad. It was a bad day for him with his breathing
    Be thankful it's not a 53'er
