    Hey everyone, I just traded in my completely built FJ Cruiser for a 2011 Tacoma. I had an 06 and had to sell it cuz I had to move overseas. For the past 2 years I have been wheelin' around in my FJ and lovin' it, but EVERY time I see a Taco I kept staring at it. FINALLY I broke down and bought another last night. It was a little heartbreaking to get rid of a completed FJ, but now I get to start another build!

    Calvin from Seattle

    Be on the lookout for some slider questions soon...

    FJ TRAITOR!

    JK I have no room to talk. I'm an FJ guy hanging on a Taco forum. Although I did take the normal route and have a Taco first and then FJ. And I don't plan on going back. :)

    Enjoy your 2011. Post a picture of both rigs!
