Default Already started a new project

Well, I traded in my Toyota Yaris for this. A Toyota FJ Cruiser. I needed a little more room for my DJ equipment and I no longer drive to Montgomery, so I did not need the Yaris anymore. Of course I still have my S2000. The neat thing now is that all my cars are silver, the S2000, 4 Runner and FJ. I have started to order a few parts here and there. There is too much for this car. I love it. It drives better than my wifes 4 Runner in my opinion. I will post some better pics as I mod.

Did you order a back up camera? I test drove one for an hour or so last week. Loved the way it drove and the power. Hated the tippy feeling and the lack of view when looking over my shoulders. The last "car" I drove that I had a love/hate thing with was a C4 Corvette. Unlike a lot of things that I've driven this thing made me "feel" and that's a good thing. I sure wouldn't kick one out of my driveway.

Nioe choice and I look forward to hearing about and seeing what you do to it.

I looked at them before the Ridgeline and before gas was at 5$ a gallon.

The local Yota dealer didn't want to come off 28K for any of them, 2wd only. I passed.

I did not get the rear camera....yet. Mine is used, 2WD. I did not see myself going offroad much, but I have heard that the 2WD can go just about anywhere the 4WD will go. On the FJ site, the 2WD guys have had these in some tricky places. I was impressed. Mine has the upgrade package, not sure what is included, but it does have a nice factory sub and rear locking diff. I love the car. I have tons of plans for it. Thanks for the comments

Mods have already started. I just installed new upper and lower grills. I cut the factory plastic one out. Here are some better pics of the FJ too.
