Talking Owning an FJ rocks!

So I get home from work, and the snow's been melting all week, and it's p@ssing down rain, and I wanted to get the canoe out and hit the river- not happening... Suddenly, I remember I own an FJ! I grab the wife and the dog, load up the rig, and off we go to the nearest mudbog (about 20 min. away)!

Once we got there I could see the wife was having fun so I convinced her to get behind the wheel, and soon she was grinning from ear to ear as she buried the bumpers in fresh, wet, gooey mud! I swear, the FJ looks much better dirty!

She's been smiling ever since, and she's even talking mods with me!!! The gods have smiled upon me!!!

There's nothing like a good mud bath to refresh the body and soul. Go get them mods.

Re: Owning an FJ rocks!

Had mine over 2 years now. I still feel the same as the first time I drove it. There are a couple of hills just off the road home from work. I find myself turning off and climbing them at least once a week.

Glad you had a good time.

Re: Owning an FJ rocks!

We've only had ours since early February, but I can't see any of this changing- the wife's probably more FJ crazed now than when we first rolled off the lot (and she says I'm usually the obsessive one!)

Anyhow, gotta finish my chores so I can load up the wife and dog into the FJ to go and find some mud! She says she'll let me drive today (new Nokian Vatiivas- can't wait to bogg'em!!!)
