Yup, it was me! I wave at every FJ I see. I've only seen your titanium a few times around town and most of the time you were headed the wrong way to wave... I've seen a sun fusion at the fire department lot, a black diamond on Toke St., a voodoo running around town, there's another titanium at the accountant's office across from the P.O., and a black cherry in Schumacher. Lately I've also seen a '08 TT edition twice in town now, but I think it's owned by the guy who owns the dealership in town. Hopw to see you around soon Northern Cruiser- FJ PRIDE!

Re: Big wave saturday

I passed through Timmins at the end of Febuary on my way up to Smooth Rock Falls. Didn't see any FJ's. When I was in Moosonne I saw an FJ drive by was that one of you guys.

Re: Big wave saturday

Hey Kent.. nope wasn't me, thats a long drive on a winter road to get up there, in spring the road is no longer there you would be driving in bog
only way into moosonee in the spring and summer months is to load your FJ onto a train and take the 5 hour ride there. I do know some people who drove on that winter road this year and they said it was scary..... 5 hours of driving on ice with no asphalt and no service stations in the middle of Tundra like conditions was a little crazy.
you could be the only one on that winter road and not see anyone for days if something happend, or say if you fell through the ice.

Re: Big wave saturday

We dogsledded from Smooth Rock to Moosonee, it took 8 days. If they keep the winter road open next year, I'm thinking "road trip". Heck might head up to Attawapiskat.

Re: Big wave saturday

If you're taking the winter road into Moosonee, you better be travelling in a convoy- craziness I say!
Man, I'm thinking what I'm seeing out the window right now is crazy- more snow.

Anyways, thanks for the compliment Northern Cruiser- I just got the wet okoles in- I think the Titaniums look real sharp too- would've been my second choice. My wife likes the sandstorm, but I haven't seen any up here. Too bad they discontinued the black cherry!

Re: Big wave saturday

I passed by the Black Cherry twice on Saturday and waved both times- he waved back as well. Nice looking colour- too bad it was D/C'd.

Northern Cruiser- I'm going to post a couple of pics of the interior with the wet okoles installed in a post later tonight!

Cheers
