    I’m really tempted to build something and just cover it in floor wax or something, welds are too pretty to cover

    My front is like that, 95% of the exterior welds are all exposed and have a light coat of primer

    I like how it looks on a trail truck. The rust making it darker actually looks pretty cool ironically.

    There was a non sunroof 100 series I wanted to buy for like 4300 bucks the other month. Didn't have the money at the time

    A poverty spec, triple locked LC80 would be my ideal rig

    I hate my flares

    Never seen an LC100 without a sunroof

    I have to say, that first pic looks so badass.

    The rust on that bumper is just the 'perfect' amount, and adds the same subtle contrast that bronze wheels do to a black rig.

    First tank in Forester is about empty and I'm at 28mpg, all city and stop and go. That's nice.
    I have not been gentle on throttle either. (Probably should be during break-in, but...)
