my son loves my FJ too...he really appreciates a good piece of motor equipment...
i took him out for a brief mudfling....he just was beside himself...
and whats cool about him is that he tells his friends and colleagues that the vehicles are mine!!

Sounds like Nate is a great son! He knows how much effort and time and care you have spent modding the FJ and It's nice to get those compliments! A few more and he might get the Keys???

My dad is jealous of my FJ but he gets the keys anytime he wants since he was gratious enough to get it for me. Its funny, he never asks to drive it but whenever I throw him the keys he gets so excited.

Hey Mark...not to hijack this thread but is that an American Eskimo in your Avatar? I have one too and he seems to enjoy the same relaxed position yours does. They're great pups!

Wait a minute... It is a great name... and you're totally right about the meaning! But I take it as Gift to women...
You are both right!!! My Nates name is Nathan Ross so he is a 'gift from God" and a "horse" too. We used to make fun of him and say "don't look a gift horse in the mouth". Hokey but funny.
BTW Abbe, FJ Nate, as Tom and I refer to him as, is a great guy too. I have gotten to know him in the last few months and his parents must be proud! He is a nice guy and he even respects his mother!!!!!!!

x2 haha. If you start to hear a few more comments, you may start to hear, hey mom i just need to borrow the FJ for a trip to the store.... and to take out my date.
Glad you get to spend some time with the kiddo Kim.
p.s. is it weird that your son and i are 3 years apart?
Naw, Layton, I have been the "room mom" for almost 21 years now but especially the older Nate got. Now we are the "fun" house and all his buddies want to come down. Suits us fine though because, like you, Nate's buddies are all really cool guys!
BTW I didn't realize you were only 24. You act alot older than that, my friend.
