    I really want to test drive one of the new F150's, they look nice! I've only seen a couple on the road so far though.

    Oh well. I already have a '10 with 60K, so I guess don't really need a '12 with 57k.

    I've certainly been glad to have mine this winter.

    Where are the fog lights that he's talking about?

    Seeing all of the effort he's putting into reconditioning your rig for sale would make me damn nervous about that Tonka Toy you just bought from him...

    Lol he's buying new ones. I sold mine.

    I checked the FJ over top and bottom on their lift, and I had Toyota inspect it. It's clean.

    8.5 Fisher XV2, some switches, some lights.

    Looks like a midlife crisis car to me.
    Pros:
    1) Convertible for the breeze blowing through your thinning hair...
    2) Rides high enough that people can't look down into the car and see the middle-aged beer gut
    3) Solid axles
    4) 285HP/265lb/ft
    5) Available locking front & rear diffs, w/disconnecting a swaybar.
    6) You can literally hose out the interior.
    7) The doors come off!!
    8) Great approach/departure angles

    Cons:
    1) Increasing reputation as a chick car
    2) The most capable versions are $$$ (Rubicon starts at over $35k)
    3) Aerodynamics (and the associated wind noise) of a brick sitting on top of another, longer brick
    4) No bed
    5) 3500lb tow rating
    6) Bouncy/Jouncy ride
    7) Poor reliability ratings
    8) 'Marginal' crash test ratings


    Suck. Hope this fixes it for ya, Dennis!

    My father just bought one in October. I hate jeeps but not for the same reason most of the guys on here do... I've only been in 3 jeeps in 35 years for a total of maybe 2 hours.. And 2 felt like a tent on wheels.. Having to talk loud over the road/ wind noise... I'm not a top off or convertible down type of person... I'm windows up AC on.... Plus they're expensive for what you get... Saying all that his is pretty nice, and it goes tits in the snow.....
