    Call me when you do and we'll get together - oh I forgot, FJs can't carry 4 wheels! :) Let me know I'll deliver! That way I can charge you gas money in exchange for your storage fee. Let me know what looks good for you this week.

    It used to handle great when I had it. I had some BFG KM2 Muds which were awesome insofar as you didnt let off the gas.

    I think I was going like 30-40MPH. LOL. I paid a price though. I hit the 36"-48" mud hole at that rate of speed and the water shot straight up my intake, through the tube, past the throttle body, and I assume into my engine...several times. The pressure disconnect my intake hoses a few times too so I had to take the whole thing apart and give it a good wipe down when I got home. Mud is way too messsy.


    So is this what happens on TW? I get a new 4x4 vehicle, you guys feel threatened by its offroad capabilities, so you guys shoot it down? Look guys, Im gonna stay a mall crawler until I get a trail rig, theres no need to worry about my soccer mom suv outdoing your big boy trucks. Im sorry you Tacomas have leaf springs and have to deal with wheel hop and axle wrap. Im sorry my engine puts out an extra 20hp. Im sorry I have captains chairs, an inclinometer, and a sick ass compass. And Im sorry that my FJ has an actual shifter instead of a button. But please...lets be friends...:D


    LOL. I see you guys organizing these meets and trust me, it hurts to not be able to sign up. I miss wheeling. Its pricey to wheel the way I did though [no limits, balls out]. My pockets cant accommodate that right now but hopefully down the road it can. I hope to pay off some ish this year and start saving up for a trail rig. I need to get back out there.

    Ive seen a few FJ videos going airborn, its so sick. I would assume that the more balanced FJ would do a better job when it came to jumping too.

    How are you liking your FJC? I have been tempted as of late to go that route. I'm more into having an expo rig and even though my truck is more than capable I can't keep my eyes/mind off the FJC.

    I did a pro/con list and the Tacoma wins. :(
